Here is an example of a stop hit during early session when lots of traders and speculators are watching intently... Tends to suck in some people. Also, here on the 1m you can see how visible they are. When you are watching the market as you trade ...

Anyone see that stop removal last night?

Those chasing exact systems will never find what they are looking for... I focus on having the best technicals that can handle multiple different strategies depending upon the market conditions and situation... Wave Count/Range strategies, run ...

What the heck was Friday all about?

God, this forum is full of tons of nut jobs just like EliteTrader... I don't think there is any forums online without nutcases except trading clubs with subscription access only...

The Illusion of Motion

Standard deviations are most likely useless for trading. Have to think up a new name for my formula. Just showing off. This formula is fundamentally accurate. Combined with wave counts and cycles it confirms exactly what the market is doing and ...

The Holy Grail of Deviations...

What are you even talking about? The most predictable thing in this market is where they take out the stop position in an uptrend. That is where you know the big boys are going to run it hard!!!

What the heck was Friday all about?

It was the particular way the pattern occurred... There hasn't been anything like that in years that I can remember. Normally moves that are around the average daily range stick for a while before reversing. Never seen an event where the market went ...

What the heck was Friday all about?

Hey fuckface! I was just asking if anyone knew if there was any Spain bailout rumors or something driving the market volatility. I made good money last night. But, normally I don't lose any trades during a trading day... NEVER SEEN crap like that ...

What the heck was Friday all about?

I mean... Here is what was really freaking dizzying... I have NEVER seen a 120m price pattern like this... I was prepared with uptrend and runup trading strategies... I had nothing in the trading plan to deal with 80+ pip straight up and down moves ...

What the heck was Friday all about?

The whole take out the stops in the uptrend then rip it up was predictable and easy to catch... But what happened afterward had to be seen to be believed!!! I have never seen a move rip back down and back up like that ripped up a bunch of my trades ...

Master G's Corner

Jesus H Christ... Currency volatility doesn't even begin to describe last night... Seriously dazed... Only won 1/3rd my trades, but caught a nice runner which kept things in the green for the day! I need to note that numbers like 1.X000 (Like ...

Weekly/Monthly situation is interesting. There are no fitting long term momentum curves on the monthly right now. It's very rare for there to be. From 2008 into 2010 there was though. Even though the weekly curves don't fit it's looking like we only ...

Actually... I may be trading the GBP long tonight during EU session... The EUR/USD is multiple times weaker than the other pairs during Asian session.

Master G's Corner

Okay... Finally the momentum curves are starting to confirm that the market is consolidated. Time to find some big longs tonight and maybe capture a run!!! If we hit new highs again the euro is going to set up for a collapse. I'm not even sure ...

Master G's Corner

Hmmm... Glancing at the daily momentum curves for the EUR/USD and GBP/USD... Even when they don't fit they tell you if were in a acceleration or consolidation phase. They fit very well lately though. I expect the EUR/USD to collapse at a certain ...

Master G's Corner

I remember reading the popular book. Reminisces of a stock operator... I think. He talked about how when he went from the bucket shops to the real market he failed in the real markets. Buying into moves always failed because he moved the market too ...

Market Manipulation Dynamics

In the last two years I have only seen two areas where I really think there was large scale manipulation of the EUR/USD currency pair. Price action within these two areas was completely unnatural across all timeframes and showing classic "iceberged" ...
