Do you want to limit discussion to the 4 components you've listed? My view of market structure is quite different from yours.

"Structure" of the market

I'm impressed, and a little amazed, at how so many of you are able to post your bullshit on this thread and trade, all at the same time (that's a joke, because there is ample evidence that none of you are traders). What a remarkable demonstration of ...

Here is the GA, where there are lots of possibilities in the coming week. The GA is poised to do something, even if it stays in the range. The ATR on this pair is about 150, but trending down. I have the A$ likely to continue to move south, and the ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

I trade with people who have helped instill in me the notion that planning and preparation are critical to trading. I have two levels of planning, and I thought I’d share one of those planning levels here. Every Sunday morning before church, I spend ...

So...where do we go from here? Without dukas posting his long, mentally disturbed diatribes, we will all have more time to read actual useful stuff, so someone throw out a topic.

Can YOU make money as a trader?

No, you are wrong (and you misspelled general). The OP would like to add in some of what I am suggesting. Less crap about the nothingness and dick sizing that's been going on recently, and more on trading.

Can YOU make money as a trader?

This thread has gone from talking about trading to measuring dicks. How boring! I don't believe anything I see re: TE's etc. If it can be faked, i ignore it. Howevet, you can't fake a chart with your daily plan, and follow on contemporanious charts ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

Your comment on a journal is a very important element in trading. I journal every trade, and at the end of the day, I analyze how my advanced analysis matched with actual PA. But, the advanced work is always compared to the contemporaneous TA that I ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

I did, and I made the change...thanks!

Can YOU make money as a trader?

I interpreted the "IN ADVANCE" thing as having a plan. I agree with having a trading plan for the pairs that I select each day. It's part of my trading process. It includes targets, entry strategies (not actual entry points) and stops (which when ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

I've just added another chart in my journal for M3d, regarding how to set up targets in advance and then manage trading to these targets. I'll hold off on talking about entries and stops in advance for him to catch up. Hope that helps and good ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

Hit the third target area from the first post this morning. I know that M3d needed targets and I hope this has been helpful. I'd ask for a little more participation from him on thinking ahead on entries. Now let's see if it can hit the next targets ...

I just looked at the 4H and 1H data, and they are now in sync for a down move, with my entry chart (10M chart) agreeing. But it's late in the day here, and it now needs a whole set up to justify an entry for me. Thanks for the heads up!

Initial thoughts on more entries start with a break of the pink zone, a retest of the zone, and the go move away from that zone. Stops will be likely at or below the zone, but actual stops will be viewed as PA unfolds. image

I took your criticism to heart, and posted a few things for you on my journal, starting here: url . I'd love to expand on the topic with you, and everyone else here who knows how to trade.

Can YOU make money as a trader?

I have it now leaning south, but it hasn't made my trading list for a few days now, given a jittery 1H picture, and a neutral 4H chart. That said, it seemed to be targeting levels below but PA is now consolidating at a -.618 fib extension. No ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

Right. We work hard to build our rules to trade by, but actually executing those rules can be a challenge. Discipline and maturity are really important. I'm pretty sure that, when I was in my 30s and 40s, I'd have been a complete failure at trading. ...

Can YOU make money as a trader?

GBP PA is testing the last attempt to break the PSR zone, after a third entry. The idea here, is to start your day with one set of TA and targets, and add to them as the PA unfolds. Keep trading as long as this process unfolds in PA, and exit as ...

GA this morning, with both initial and follow on TA. There are several entries here, but I did not trade this, as I was helping M3d and others with some pre charts and subsequent trades. But these were the 2 pairs I was focused on this morning

Another entry, and more possible targets. Important note: PA bounced pretty hard off the pink PSR zone, so an entry here carries more risk than you might want to carry now, especially if you missed the first few trade entries below. Caution, but ...
