Flying Dutchman

I was told I could use big words ...

Hmm…. Apple are apparently pulling MT4/5 from the App Store.
Keep an eye on the news!

Saw somewhere, can't recall where, a post how to go around that. So, me thinks with the rapid response of the work around they were prepared for this event. I wonder what took them so long. Likely where metaquotes is located passed them by.

Just trading ... put this in the "this is just the way things go sometimes" category ...

Must apologies yet again
I am afraid I do not know any Big Words
If I did, I would not know how to pronounce or even spell them
So just a chart from me

Just access your broker on the web and download the platform they offer, most have IOS or WIN not sure about android users, think its APK.

I have no problem. I do not trade off my phone. My thumbs are too big.

What about your fingers tho?
If u have Fat Fingers..u control the market

Some context please. A brief explanation of what we are looking at.

Appears to be M1 with a grid. I can see the start of the hour (I assume) is a zone from the rectangle. Candle patterns - yes. Direction - down.

Context please.

What in the Devil is going on with your indicators, are they possessed?

Trading doesnt have to be pretty...

Its about making money...bottomline.... Not Pips Not Points Not % increase... Its Money
Getting in and back out either with taking some from the market or giving a little....

Today I traded as normal the SPX for the open and first hour or so.. my normal routine..
13 trades today..More than a normal day as made some execution errors etc..mistakes

Anyhoo trading a bit dirty today lol.. 13 trades 7W-80pts/6L-32.1pts Net 47.9 Pts
Account increase 1.9% Im happy with that... I know I said ITs all about Money and it is..
But since im not sharing how much I make..Im giving you the other metrics LOL

Heres a chart showing 2 trades...one is for 31 points one is for .25 pt... Reason im showing this is you can
see I just took a trade off the DT off BRN and at TIMING 17:00 The 4hr Candle change...
Price did go 12-15 pts immediately in my favor..zero heat on the trade..So moved SL to BE+ price as you can see came
back took me out.

I take alot of trades just based on DT DB Ms Ws etc...always with a tight stop and if they run they do if not I try to get out
with as little damage as possible...

Today I felt the market was weak.. AND I KNEW there was a 95% chance we would trade lower than Friday...

HUH How do I know that? Thurs Fri Mon PATTERN....
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...2#post14111072


So with that said I had enough confidence to short the market with heavier than normal lot sizes but within reason...therefore a 1.9% increase today which mostly came from 2 trades...One that is shown for 31 points...
A 95% pattern...BRN...New 4 hr candle at 1700 and Bingo....Yes I was early and could have gotten a better entry but thats trading

As well I want to say despite this TH FR MO pattern being 95% accurate over the years..you still have to play it safe..Yes I went heavier but within reason as I dont care what anyone says...Anything can happen despite having the odds stacked in your favour.

Hi Bluesteele,

Great trade as usual. I do not trade the SPX but for learning purposes i always have a look when u post ur charts. I do know that you mostly trade the US session.
Taking a look there may have been a setup in London Session (hindsight). If u get a chance do have a look to see if i saw it right?

Trade Well All.

The Bigger Picture of the GBPUSD.... Thought was fitting for The Flying Dutchman !

Hey Whitesta...

Yep I would have 100% taken that trade.
Couple of other things...
Note the distinct 3 pushes....
Note the Timing LSE has just opened....
Note the GAP time high has been broken... Yes Asia and thats a confluence as well.. But often you will find the true H or L that Asia/London will take out is
the Gap time after the 12 bar NY window.... Its something Stacey Burke eludes to in many of his videos.

Add it all up and pull the trigger for sure.. Its a nice outside setup..

I like to (try to lol ) enter above the BRN for a short so above and the first candle that does that is 10:28 where the NY GAP has been taken out...

Heres a 15m and 1m of this setup

Cheers

Hi Dave long time no see. Nice to see you over here and keeping the Nih legacy alive to some extent.

Yes you are correct
Hope this helps ?

Thought I had allowed BW back on grid, my error.
Up and running now.

Yes Nih98 is a big miss, thought his Indicators were spot on
Still think Parisboy is the real deal, but my concentration levels are just not there now for his ( Focal Points )
Tony seems to be onto something but to be fair, I need to clear my screens and my head to get to grips with the way he operates his grid,
which is hard as I am already making a few pips and the older I get the harder I find learning even more tricks
Off the subject
Not happy with Southgate just seems to be wasting these friendlies,
seems to have run out of ideas
Cannot understand why Kane needs to drop so deep
Hope all is well with you
Dave
