AlienFrog replied Sep 21, 2011EURCAD — EC trade is up 92 pips. I'm going to trail my SL at the low of previous M15 candle.
Yes, I'm too chicken to hold on! But this way I won't lose money, and I won't let a winner turn into a loser. With my luck it would retrace ...Trading Price Pivots

AlienFrog replied Sep 21, 2011Wow, you are right, and I had not checked weekly TF!
Thanks for that heads-up! I'm trading a $100 micro account, and I'm setting my trade size so SL is always $1 no matter how many pips. I'm shooting for 1:2 or 1:3 RR right now, too. This is ...Trading Price Pivots

AlienFrog replied Sep 21, 2011Oh yes, too early on GY. On the other hand, if BOJ intervenes, it will spike up like CHF pairs a couple of weeks ago. But I'm not going to play that game! I was already looking at EURCAD at double bottom. The lows are close but 16 pips apart, and ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 21, 2011OCO script — Andri, EmptyEternit posted an OCO (Open One close the Other) script a while back. I just downloaded it. That's a good step toward a solution, except for the fact that you don't know where the second candle will close. But I use ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 21, 2011AUDNZD setup — Now the Daily candle on AUDNZD closed above the candle 2 days ago, so I think we have a valid PP setup. I put the fib on low of pinbar to high of next (yesterday's) candle, and then zoom to H1. I have marked what I think should ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 21, 2011Failed email alert — The email alert didn't fire last night. I even tested the MT4 email setup before going to sleep last night. It should have emailed me at 2:45am. The BO signal arrow and extended box did not appear until I changed TF and ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 20, 2011GU CZ formed! — Ladies and Gentlemen, Just moments ago we had another CZ box form on GU! I have again set the email alarm (it emails a text message to my phone) because the breaks always happen right around London open when I'm in deep REM ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 20, 2011GY Box — TPC you beat me to it!
I'll post my chart anyway. Can't have too many good-looking CZs! I drew this box manually when it was about 19 bars old, hoping the indi would kick in, too - and it did! I set the email alarm so it's probably ...Extracted Thread (per thread starter's request)

AlienFrog replied Sep 20, 2011GY Daily — Portfirio, this is GY Daily with CCI 14. I don't use it but I saw you are using it. Is this divergence, and is it a possible buy signal?

AlienFrog replied Sep 20, 2011Messiahua, I am not an expert on Survivor's method so I will only tell you what I see. You went short right on a support line - I added it to your pic. Price bounced right off that support TL and went up. I'm not saying I would have taken that trade ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 20, 2011AUDNZD PP forming — Guys, how does AUDNZD look to you? Nice pinbar. If today closes higher than 2 days ago open, we draw fib and start looking for retrace and good PP to enter. Is this right? Not sure whether today has to close higher than ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 19, 2011Kapybara thanks for asking Chantalb to elaborate. One picture is certainly worth a thousand words! I'm a visual learner, so this is really good for me. I edited your picture a little, Chantalb. I'm still getting used to the PP terminology of 3,5,7, ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 16, 2011Aha! (need a smiley face for a light bulb). Now I get it! I did not look for the higher high on the confirmation candle. I was only looking at the pattern formed by the lows. That would have automatically solved my fib problem, too. I like this way ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 15, 2011Forget to ask you about this last night. Once I zoomed to H1 I put the fib on the swings for both days. I wasn't thinking about the two different candles at that point. So are you saying I should put fib on high of confirmation, even if lower than ...

AlienFrog replied Sep 14, 2011Every word you say is great stuff! I get it all and I see everything you mean on that trade. I took it long this morning, moved to BE and got stopped out in a few hours. But I kept my #1 rule: don't lose money. Thanks! Mega pips to all!
