Of today's pin?
I'd be A LOT happier if we were up higher than that before going back down. I want a return to these areas at least damn it!!...
(I think your long will happen, but that was strong short interest the past week).

Sideways for a few days??
My question, at the minute, is whether James likes it as a 150 system trade.

Nice Josh.
I'd have taken it if I'd seen as per your chart.
...Bit late saying that now , I know. lol
Super low close in the bar. Breaking and closing below the low that was set by those two previous bars before it (love that). Nice location.

Hi Tingus,
You're bar has good range, and as Nology stated, there is divergence on the 4 hour chart. This is a daily chart though, and you need to look at what the daily chart is telling you...
...The biggest issue for that trade is the area highlighted on my chart below. Immediately before our pin developed, we spent a few days going sideways and creating a resistance zone at those bar highs. By the time you have gotten a break of the pin bar's high you are already arriving at an area likely to cause trouble and stress. (Atton's chart explains why the bar highs are where they are.  ) .
(By the way, switching to the weekly chart shows the exact same 'traffic' type problem as the daily chart.)
You'll see a LOT of signals such as yours that are not good enough for someone who strives to be picky.
You need to be very picky and look for trades where you have a clear run in that first leg of a trade. ...Even if the signal bar is very strong.
Often when you get a pin such as yours, you will find many other pairs in similar situations where things just aren't good enough , with the exception of one or two pairs that DO have that clear run ahead of them (_space_). On that day, you choose those ones with the clear runs. ...Or if there are none , you just go in to waiting mode again.
This antelope wandered dangerously close to your lion this time  , but the antelope isn't injured. You want to chase the injured antelope. There are easier prey out there.

Hi again Tingus.
Forgetting some older lessons is normal. We all forget to check important things occasionally.
Example again...
(Continued on from Daily chart. Yellow arrow points to your daily pin bar's high point)
I've gone to the 4 hour, only so I can illustrate how price can ping pong instead of flying off into profit as you would like. The good thing here is we knew ahead of time that this could happen. 
If there is enough room from your daily set up to give a little low risk profit , then still take it, by all means. I wouldn't have risked it here. Wasn't of interest to me at all. I know better trades come along, with little more waiting at all.
Make your own decisions though, of course. If you think a bar in itself gives you enough conviction to fight through the first trouble spot, go ahead. Sometimes you'll get a real heavy hitter that shouts that out. Personally I like at least a little room even then, just to take a little risk out of it. If you do take them, be aware of these trouble spots, and then at least you'll figure out something over the long run on whether situations like this are for you personally.
Even another 10 - 15 pips to those bar highs (and for me, the line chart high) would have made it a little more worthwhile taking. It would have allowed a chance to manage the trade easier. (i.e. Maybe take partial profit, move stop to Break Even and even have room for the stop to not knock you out of the trade.) ...Or from the stand point of someone taking the first obstacle as a profit take point, it would balance out the risk taken from the stop loss price point a little.
Cheers.
( Edit: As a side point... draw a horizontal line from the daily line chart's high from the 29th of Sept then look at your 4 hr chart. (FXPro charts)  )

It's some of the strongest resistance in a long while, in my opinion.
I'm going to love to see a continuation break out on this. If it happens.

Not sure about others here, but a really really great close, as you describe, often has me even using a "round-about the right position size" calculation. lol ..it's that important a factor in my trade selections.

It's some of the strongest resistance in a long while, in my opinion.
I'm going to love to see a continuation break out on this. If it happens.

Not sure about others here, but a really really great close, as you describe, often has me even using a "round-about the right position size" calculation. lol ..it's that important a factor in my trade selections.

Hi Lyra,
I understand your commitment to holding on to that short, but once that Bullish Pin formed (and even failed to reach the previous low) then the idea of holding was probably a little too biased. As Eternal was, I think, trying to point out. Maybe if the bullish pin was weak looking you would think of riding out the draw down, but it wasn't weak.
Otherwise you did alright. Really, for a trade that you expected to run a while , I'd have probably done the same with moving stops as you did. Except for you missing the significance of the bullish pin. ( Edit: I'm sure I'd have closed the trade actually. From experience I know it's better to stop and wait for the next one.)
One other point: You played the trend line breakout as a pullback? ...The best ones of those fire off into profit and break hard. When they hesitate to confirm and break through those new lows (or highs) of the break out, then it's time to tighten up.
...You'll figure out your own tricks and tendancies on that one though.

Slow in general on this thread. I've written to Twee. I think this thread needs to be pulled out of the commercial forum and back to the main FF section where it belongs.

 For sure.
And I suppose I should ask when UK DST ends too. Just assumed they'd be close. lol

I'll keep you posted. It always throws me for a loop. I end up using the FF session start indicator on the front page a lot.

I had the Oanda session widget going at some point, but tend to not like too much being open at once. (Doesn't stop it though . lol)

With the DST changes this time of year it takes a bit of adjusting. I'm already struggling with NY starting 1 hour later here (Midnight now/so far).
What I SHOULD do is get my butt into gear with alerts/programs again.

Yep. The internet age. You hear/read everything now.
I think you'd be crazy to do a live trading room with people you haven't gotten to know real well. You can't control those people that have to risk %50 on a trade when they get cocky.

Agree with you totally about protecting your family Jim. I think that's what lifetime pf membership is for. The kind of crazy that's going to risk 50% a trade and then come after you when he strikes out, is not the kind of crazy that's going to stick around 12 months patiently...

That's a really REALLY good post TiaF. I agree completely with everything you said. Get good,confident and profitable with one thing at a time.

Hi FT,
The bar was good, but if you looked around the charts, you'd have found other JPY based pairs with more room for that first push down.
On G/J there was a couple of areas where it got all gathered up (blue boxes on my 4hr chart).
The bar says a lot to me. You were right to look at it. It wasn't too bad. It just had a few things working against it.
Actually, on my second chart here you can see a Fib off of the weekly chart that I also have on my working charts in front of me ( I've done a cleaner version for you). The fib in itself doesn't say that much , but it lines up with a good PPZ. A really good one. That's the important bit. Draw this fib on the weekly then shoot down to your 4 hr chart. In fact, take it right down to the 1 hr chart even and examine the level ....Price has stopped RIGHT on this Fib-aligned PPZ, and not just on the way down this time.
It's always good to look at a heap of charts with good signals and just pick the one or two that have the best potential only.
( Edit: By the way , these charts are different time zone to yours, so they don't show your signal bar)

As Rac just said above.... Don't need to trade every day, and those yen charts and a G/U touch trade have given me good easy coin to end the week with.
Don't see any point waiting around into the end hours of the week for anything else.
Have a good one, all y'all. I'm off to bed.

I realise the cities can be different, but I'm not one to hang around the big smoke much anyway.  ( ...I could do Manhattan for a year maybe though.)

Yes.
I hope anyone intending to trade this way for the first time is DEMOing for a while in real time.
You need to know your Support/Resistance VERY WELL and, in my opinion, know the instrument you are trading very well too.
Most importantly... DO NOT LET YOUR WINNERS BECOME LOSERS.

Cable finally in pullback territory.
Well , Got the pullback situation I wanted to see. ...Kind of.
As you can see from my chart, though, not exactly clean-cut with the trendlines on this one.
Watching for some real good confirmation.
For now though , a push to 1.6400 would give a better confluence situation for me.
(Charts attached)

It is. It's hard to find a super clear PPZ.

Other than that, I'm not really seeing anything too solid. I'm excited for how these weeklies will close though. Some are looking juicy if we stay as I'm expecting us to stay.
|
Haven't peeked at the weeklies yet. lol ...But this week has been very ordinary for me. First trade of the week an hour ago ...I just did a 1:1 on EURNZD , but all week I have pretty much walked away from the screen real quick every time I've flicked through the charts.
Quote:
'm not sure which one will be hotter in that area, the gbp/usd or gbp/jpy. If we do get that push up, it'll take the other straight with it. I gotta get off here, I'm getting too excited and that IS a bad thing while trading.
|
Certainly seems GBP driven. They've been strong moves the past day or so. Not too keen on going against them at those unclear horizontal levels. Unless everyone has just given up on short orders and decided to wait for these pullbucks. lol
Setting the alarm for 4:00am bar close. First time in a while.

GBP bear? Nup. Neither. Just my preferred set up if it all looks right.

Yep.
You're taking the right path.
When a good trade comes along it really sticks out at you.
Those times when you wonder if you might be just missing something today somewhere are nearly always just "walk away" moments anyway, when you look back later on.
If you can learn to "hold your horses" for most of the month waiting for those couple of really good trades on the daily chart...well ...I believe 'waiting' is THE most underrated skill we need to learn in trading, anyway. You need to spend some months developing it and making it a natural response.

Most of these if not all are simply J16 trades. They can be learned and mastered by reading this forum from page 1 onward...
Let's see if these will be 200ps runners... after all it's Friday.
Enjoyed the weekend!
