I hear you loud and clear Strat! Never again will I let this happen. It also never helps to keep things bottled up, so it does feel good to get this off my chest. I cant talk to my wife or my friends about it without sounding like an alien, so what ...

Long winded... But true — I would like to share a story of how our mental approach to trading can be our " Best Friend" and also our " Worst Enemy". During the past 5 months, since studying Strat's method, I felt that I finally reached a level ...

You never cease to impress me Patrick! That is great Money Management. As usual ,you have a very unique way of looking at things, not only from the actual trade perspective, but how you allocate your 1st position profits for those losing trades. As ...

EUR/CHF — What Strat is saying, is we need to focus on what is happening NOW (IMMEDIATE) not what happened last month or last year, thats all history. The EURCHF pair : Big Boss is up.... NOW Boss is up........ NOW Worker is up.......NOW They ...

[quote=simpleman;3916645][quote=GibsonL6;3916446] Hi Simpleman ! I will attempt to answer your questions, hopefully without creating more confusion. The only MA`s we use accross the Worker, Boss and Big Boss time frames, is the 20 and 50. So, the ...

MA Confusion! — It seems that something so SIMPLE has led to so much CONFUSION. The 100 and 250 MA's cannot be used on the Boss because it would be an inaccurate reflection of the Big Boss 20/50 MA's. We use the 100 and 250 on the WORKER ONLY ...

The Big Picture — Hi Pierre! Looking at the big picture might make it easier to understand. It seems to help me with identifying trends. I've attached a Big Boss chart as an example. The DOMINANT trend can be seen easily on the Big Boss The ...

TOO LATE? — This thread is not about getting in as early as possible but rather as SAFE as possible, using BASIC PASR and our TOOLS. If we need to wait for several HH and HL 's ( as per the GBPUSD example) to get those SAFER entries,... then ...

GBPUSD TEST — Hi hcristea ! Would'nt it feel safer and more stress free, if this same trade set-up was 400/500 pips before Major R. Maybe looking at it this way might help.

Strat's Test — Hi Strat! Thanks for test. This was a very good lesson for me. The way you explained it, forced me to look at the Boss differently. I can see now that paying attention to what it's doing, relative to preceding candles and swings ...

Strat's Test — A long above the hammer, would be trading into major resistance with terrible R/R. This would not be a safe, low risk, stress free trade. I would do nothing until I see the following: If price breaks Major R with strong bullish ...

I doubt the L6 was ever a serious competitor to the Strat. I've played a few Strats ( never owned one) and they are a beautiful well rounded instrument. You just dont want to put these down after strapping them on. The L6 was more of a specific ...

Hi Strat! Anytime I hear good news from you, it really makes my day. Closing 2/3 of position may limit the profit potential, but it sure keeps those little men happy. I will heed your advice and practice trade management as you indicated. The 95% ...
