..apologies for any confusion, hope the chart helps....not advocating this as part of FJ's method of course, just my ramblings on riskier trades i sometimes take. Edit:..took 80% @ +20 and was stopped out at b/e on the rest. No more 'hairy' trades ...

...took the last signal short with lower stakes, the stoch wasn't coming down from overbought, but i spotted a 123 short pattern and took the break of that, which coincided with the Force signal.

although tempted by the swing low break, the stochastic reading at the time of the signal was way too low in it's cycle for me to enter, so still on the sidelines waiting for a better setup.

...i won't be taking the long, if it signals this time...will wait for another short.

...like your style, Monte
....i'm holding on tight for now...this is a G-Force impulse wave factor 9 with bells on
Edit:...13:05 (UK) flat now...great trade.The Force 5min system

Pleasure, FJ. I'll do my best, when i can...still have much to learn.

we're in...i've reduced risk down to above the high of the last 5min candle on this one, don't quite trust it yet.

...close of this candle for the signal...as long as it holds over the next few minutes....ideally not too much of a bear candle prior to entry.

Well done, OB1. Great patience. See you tomorrow. ...fingers crossed for a profitable US session. Good luck all.

...who's up for fading this move on the next short signal?...if i don't take it (thinking that we're now in an uptrend), i'll no doubt go and miss a 100+ move south

Nice one, FX. Braver than me, my emas hadn't crossed until the long bullish bar had closed, they were equal (on my chart) at the time of your entry from the looks of it....good for you though, worked well.

Sure, chart shows bullish divergence where price makes lower lows but the stochastic is making higher lows. Edit:...the downtrend force is strong though, use the force

...bullish divergence on the stochastic now, but i'm wary and weary of bottom fishing
