Hmm.... i just play it as i see it on my feed. I don't use Oanda charts however i assumed there was never a gap there as it displayed weekend activity.

gpb/usd gap 1hr — Just wondering if anyone played the gap? No specific PA just a fill with the trend with some resistance and the 150ma.

gbp/chf — Since i favor PA trades with the trend i was tempted by this PB indicating a continuation of the trend... it did bounce of resistance but not enough space to suggest a high probability of moving my SL to BE so i am passing.

g/u pins — I missed the juicy 4hr pins including the g/u pictured below... but i am planning on taking the daily pin. Not much of a swing high but with the trend and bouncing off a trendline. I think if it breaks than a very good chance to ...

4hr trendlines — Keeping my eye on these 4hr trendlines, maybe there will be some PA to indicate a bounce and resume with the trend?

I will admit i am not the sharpest knife here. But i am really confused on setups like this. Yes it is a PB and on the daily TF which i find are fairly reliable, even ones in bad positions i can often get to BE at least. However with all those bar ...

For me this is a beovb on possible small retracement with trend. I would have preferred the retracement to the 1.93 or 1.94 area however a peek at the 4 hour chart suggested a small breakout at around 1.84. I may take this on the 4 hour at 1.84 with ...

Thanks alot for stating your piece Mike. "That is the difference in my opinion b/w a pin in traffic, and a pin not in traffic. They both offer opportunities, but it is how you handle your trade mgmt which is going to decide your profitability." That ...

RvsR — I have to admit all though i understand Jim's comments on the chart very well i don't understand how to always apply mm to it. The Thursday pin was 271 pips. If you took the pin on a clean break of say 15 pips you would have a short ...

e/j pin — I took this daily pin on the break during last nights asian session however this morning when i noticed price had moved 200 pips in profit only to quickly snap back to put me in negative territory. Working with a b.roker like Oanda ...

So you placed 1.7535 as a limit sell and went to bed? In many cases price won't retrace that deep on your pin... are you not scared that you will miss a good trade?

Thanks. What is your second TP?

easy trades... mismanaged — Your right Jarroo. But simple minded people myself can still mismanage these trades. An example is Eur/Jpy. I entered of the break of the daily PB yesterday and when i was up about 130 pips i moved my SL from the ...

Pin's on daily TF, signaling end of retracement and continuation of trend are my favorite PA setups. If G/U and some of these yen pairs shape up i am in. I am still pretty basic so i am not sure if i would enter off of the break or on a fib ...

Hmm. Well in my mind the EA would move the stop loss quite aggressively so in the end it would probably turn out to be more of a 10 or 15 scalping method rather than a breakout trade. I realise this is not what DIBS is about so i will stop here. I ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

EA? — In my opinion DIBS is a very attractive method of trading, very simplistic "system wise" and it has built in MM as well. I love how it controls your losses while at the same time giving your such upside potential. I speak as one who has ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

Usd_Cad 2nd pin — Well i did not take the 1st pin, never did like this pair. But with two pins and dollar weakness a possibility in other pairs i am think i will take this one next week. 1st target 1.0400 at the 23.6 fib. Not sure about the ...

dollar bull over or just a retracement? — Hello all I am sure you have scoped out the pin on Eur/Usd already. While not perfect i thought it was interesting that it bounced on a 50 fib and 150 ema quite nicely. I don't know if this means the ...

The first clear and concise definition of PPZ. Thanks Jarroo.

There were some juicy looking pins on IBFX about an hour before close....during the last 60 minutes they kinda got diluted.
