Sometimes I do take a trade before news announcements, if I spot a setup that shows SM being building a position for it; If I had to pick a long setup, between EU & GU, it would be EU, looks stronger at this point. But I'm kinda distracted with ...

IBFX volumes are bigger since they migrated all accounts from 4 digit to 5 digit. So this is visible and has impact to us on higher TFs, but no more on smaller ones. Anyway, be aware, and Mal has already told this, that daily (and maybe H4? Not ...

I use IBFX demo 5-digit for charting, but I can't comment too much, cause I'm at work without charts; Anyway, it's been told many times that there's a few "good enough" broker feeds to use... IBFX is one, some use FXCM, etc. You can't rely only on ...

Yes, that also And also: try to get used to regularly watch higher TFs, like 1h and daily, to get an idea of the bigger picture, possible stronger s&r areas, etc. It always helps. Will be back around on Monday, but only active and trading on ...

Yes I'm really Plus, I don't want to get up too late, cause I'll have to travel for 1h30, to go spend the weekend at my parents, and I prefer to arrive well before dinner (mum doesn't like if I come in too late, and we don't get the time ...

vsa with Malcolm

That happens... it happens to me too, you know, even if less and less as time goes by - you get the experience and patience to deal with that. I always check both... Ideally, I prefer to have a setup (or at least "half" of it) on M15, and then drill ...

Not much reaction to the news (had finger on trailing in case it would shoot), so closed at +51. Good luck to all for the rest of the day, and have a fantastic weekend! Edit: Oh, and EU finally above 1.37!

vsa with Malcolm

I would say you are ignoring the strength that entered earlier on that stopping vol, plus that big body up bar on high vol is pushing through resistance. If you look at your M15, you'll see that stopping vol too, plus a NS bar at 1.3650, just before ...

Arrived home from night shift a bit too late, but still got in long in GU after the break of 1.5750... moved SL to BE early, so even if it will move higher, I might be stopped. For now, price is drifting between +10 and +20, at daily pivot, and ...

Oh boy, thank God I was/am on night shift for 2 nights, making me sleep through the day, cause seems everybody is having a hard time... which mean I would probably also, if I would be up and trading

vsa with Malcolm

Seems my feeling before leaving to work was spot on... would have been 10 pips or so of drawdown, for something like 55 until now. Still at work though, getting ready to leave... and sleep (been up for almost 24h now). Good pip'ing to all

vsa with Malcolm

Eh eh... that would be terrible win/loss ratio A 25 pips SL for a 11 pips profit? If I would do that, I would be looking for at least 30 or 40 pips of retrace.

vsa with Malcolm

I get the feeling a sell around here might be worth the try, considering a possible retrace late NY or during Asia to a better buying zone... problem is I don't see any setup, and I will be leaving to work in a hour... thoughts?

vsa with Malcolm

It was indeed a good trade... I had my finger on the sell button before your post too, but thought to myself those words I said after. It was only minutes after that I looked again to M15 and realized it was an UT making a double top! Worth ...

vsa with Malcolm

UT well visible on M15 and specially M10, but... I would only consider shorting if it comes back a bit and shows me there's no buying pressure (ND).

Hi guys, Crazy up & down action going on Some of you might have caught the sells at the top... well I was still sleeping - I really should get up earlier, but today I couldn't, since I will be working tonight, so needed to sleep until late. ...

Eh eh... Happy birthday, my friend I will drink one Super Bock right now, to celebrate with you!

Sorry, my indi doesn't have weekly or monthly... just daily, sweetspots, open, yesterday's high/low, and some other stuff that are disabled. Pivots depend on the market time you use... you probably use a different one than mine. The more simple ones ...

My daily pivot is at 1.5826, which is also today's open almost to the pip (I use 22:00 GMT for the open and pivots). Seems I got really lucky to close there... my closing price was 1.58138 - I manually closed it cause it had more than passed my ...

Closed for +79... not willing to risk it going back down. Turned a bad start into a beautiful day, after all
