StopRunFx replied Dec 21, 2015Looking to sell EURUSD. Mixed signals today and trading range likely, but breakouts can be strong precisely because of mixed timeframe signals. Looking to trade 5MIN chart based on bear trend on the highest timeframes.

StopRunFx replied Dec 10, 2015This is a bit like a conspiracy theory. I used to believe in such theories before, but now I think markets are more complicated than that. Thinking that WIDE stops of weak players are just there to be hunted by strong players is a bit of a ...

StopRunFx replied Dec 9, 2015You were right. Yesterday's sell did produce a good scalp though, so no worries. Trying to fade those moves today again, still just below BE overall, but in a position already.

StopRunFx replied Dec 8, 2015Re-entered the short on 5MIN, but the signal was from the 15MIN timeframe -- bulls getting good signals to enter on better price, a possible trap.

StopRunFx replied Dec 8, 2015My 2cent on the EU from the price action perspective. 15MIN here, strong signal bars allowing chasing bulls to enter at bettter price than before -- a classicaly trap signal. There may not be much left in the bull move, perhaps a higher high or just ...

StopRunFx replied Dec 8, 2015A nice range-based approach to markets! I also favour a range outlook, seeing trends and microtrends as occilations in ranges and/or trending ranges rather than the other way round (like in the "trend is your friend" or "trend following" approach). ...

StopRunFx replied Dec 8, 2015Thinking EURUSD could take a turn south from here. 15MIN shows a third push up on thinner volume, while overall Market Profile shows pretty good trading volume at the current levels despite what looks like clean swings rather than a range. So a big ...

StopRunFx replied Dec 7, 2015On 5 Min, had a perfect Always-In Short day so far, a spike and channel, which turned into a wedge and wedge breakout failure, now testing top of channel. Looking for opportunities to add to the long to a test above the channel top and possibly ...

StopRunFx replied Dec 7, 2015On 60MIN EURUSD, seeing a weak High 4 attempt by the bulls against a strong bear spike (caught the bottom, which cost me several bucks, but now holding from a good price, targeting the MA test), but the bear spike may be seen as a third push down, ...

StopRunFx replied Dec 7, 2015Didn't trade for a few months, had too much work elsewhere, resulting in poor concentration, nonsense trades and ultimately losses... The adage holds true: you can trade successfully when you are 100 pct devoted to it and your mind is crystal clear. ...

StopRunFx replied Sep 8, 2015Going Long EURUSD: on 5 min, bears had a second outside down signal bar for a short on a double top bear flag, but offering a better price. That second signal was reversed on bar 1, and two more pushes down failed on bars 2 and 4. If bears ...

StopRunFx replied Sep 8, 2015Back to trading after holiday, when time permits. Found a better way to look at the tick chart -- open the market watch and click "Tick Chart", so neat and simple. Used to have the New Order open all the time before.

StopRunFx replied Sep 8, 2015Next TRADE, switching to long: exited the swing short for 19 pips and reversed to long for a very low probability trade. Seeing Bars 20 and 22 as a micro double bottom, entering long for a Double Bottom Pullback, as sellers in the final flag are not ...

StopRunFx replied Sep 8, 2015Today, seeing EURUSD as a broad range day. We had a bull breakout and a value area was established at HOD, then sold off. Seeing the selloff as a breakout test for now. The breakout itself was on rather heavy volume and was from a value area ...

StopRunFx replied Sep 8, 2015Yesterday's trade, was good, though I exited just at the first profit target eventually. The take-away in terms of setup on 5 MIN was to wait more patiently for the setup. I did jump the gun and managed to stay afloat around breakeven, but this was ...
