A couple of PPZ levels to watch... (purple horizontal lines) ...and what will this trend line do? Maybe we break down through the trend line then retrace back to it in confluence with the top PPZ??? ..Let's wait and see.

Hi Krue, Not really. Each one is just as valid as the other. Pivots, Pivot Zones, Fibonacci levels, whatever! The real key is when a level has proven to be significant twice or more. I've drawn some charts... ...You owe me a beer!!

I think you're doing the smart thing for now Saskui. The trend is always your friend, as you say. Drawing in Pivot Zones has supercharged my trading even further. Why not draw them in anyway and learn to trade them on demo? It's worth the ...

Hi Bones, It's best to empty your mind of which direction you think things are going. We got a great bull pin (off of a PPZ). We went long. We got great bear pin and reversed our position. ...Now we hold until we get great opposing PA. ...maybe off ...

Hi, If you're talking about the spread widening?? I don't trade the news, and rarely scalp trade, but in the order screen/window there is an option you can set that specifies what slippage you are willing to accept. ...If you get a re-quote you ...

August is definitely the time to have your holiday/vacation. I know when backtesting ideas and systems most of them whipsaw the most during End of July and through most of August. I even think trendlines etc are all f'd up around that time. ...

Should trading be avoided at summer?

No . ....What phn said. A break of that first Outside Bar also breaks consolidation/range. ...So it's a good trade. James even said: "Bullish outside bar signalling LIKELY breakout of consolidation." Sometimes the overall price patterns leading ...

Hi Aihua, You trade whatever you see on your screen. It's the same information, shown a little differently. If you see the right PA and it's strong, it's still representative of the bull/bear fight that took place during that time/bar. And to add to ...

The only way I can think of getting symbols to flash is to change colour every 'tick'. There's no time-interupt functionality built into MT4. Otherwise someone would have to write a DLL that did something visible for you on the screen. Now that you ...

You both did. It's easy to see how it started though. It was just a misread. I read it the same way too at first. You were having a go at 'Matt' , not Peter.

I hear where you're coming from mate. There's been a couple of EAs I wished I could modify, just to save time over making a whole new one.

Does Anyone know how to decompile EA's

Hi Mihali, It's still a valid pin. It still represents the same information, that long players overcame short players at that point strongly. A pin often represents resistance and support at it's highs and lows. SO a break is still a break and has ...
