Definetly. I even switch between the two all the time. Bars are cleaner on the chart for me, but I'll switch to the candles to get a different picture I may be missing. A pin is just a hammer. etc...

OK. Not a major player, but I'll enter wherever there's a good sign of a reversal. If, when zooming down on the timeframes I get, for example, a really good pin off of of the 38.2% (Or 50 or whatever) on the 1 hour chart I'll get in straight away. ...

It's pity theres a good confluence to stop my long trade(below yellow arrow). I'm being conservative and taking profits at 1.9498 if we get there. Has been stuck at white 365 EMA for a few minutes now. As always. LOL Because of this. I've set my SL ...

You'll have to excuse the busy chart. I'm favouring long until we get below the grey Daily Pivot line. The red horizontal is the Hourly 200 EMA. Which is where we are stuck at now, along with that white DeMark trend line. No real direction yet ...

Scaling out. Taking 100% loss target, but 50% at profit target. ...In the end it's like turning your 80% win/loss ratio into %66 Do I have the math right?? LOL I'll never forget backtesting an MA based system (No. Not crossover ) I spent ...

I'm more worried about mass algorithm trading by the big boys ruining the tradable patterns.

Computers to replace Traders

Pretty sure of this. I've been balancing out Dollar bull/bear information with the assumption that it (the hike) was a posability in the 1st Quarter. It's played a big part in my rationalizing the posability of 2.000 being reached (cable). Which was ...

WTF! Surprise UK Rate Hike!

LOL ...Someone should take a screen capture of their Level II screen during a news release. We could show it in reply to any "I was slipped by my criminally insane broker again!!!" posts.

WTF! Surprise UK Rate Hike!

It's not completely unexpected is it?? I don't trade the news yet. Not officially. I am slowly trying to grasp the fundamental side. This leads me to read articles on the subject. I could have sworn that there was a rise expected sometime in the new ...

WTF! Surprise UK Rate Hike!

I installed it through my Gain account last week. Some of it's patterns are a little "Hopeful" . Overall though, it seems like it may be a useful addition to the toolbox. That's a slightly reserved judgment or now though.

Squash, I did. Still in. Sold half position for profit 25 pips. I've got possible targets all over the place. It's currently sitting on an old trendline from last month. (See my post #907 in Daily Cable Analysis thread) If it doesn't stop on the ...
