joelcf replied Sep 24, 2009Those moves has alot less to do with arbitary trendlines, and alot more to do with the FOMC announcement and existing homes releases last night. I used to read mike_w's posts back in here, the DIBs and AUSLANCO threads what seems like forever ago. ...

joelcf replied Sep 23, 20091:20 would be very nice, but i'd settle for half that... Hopefully the market gives us both a nice little run up to 1.700. I have some minor ppzs drawn in there, but overall I agree with your take on things.

joelcf replied Sep 23, 2009I was always a candlestick guy, but for forex I much prefer bar charts. IMHO, candles make you focus more on the open and close, and less on the daily range. Great for stocks on a daily chart, where the open and close actually mean something... not ...

joelcf replied Sep 23, 2009Hi Matt, On the EURGBP BEOB, I dont know that it is a great looking bar. It barely broke the top of the previous bars, and didnt close low enough for my (possibly overly picky) liking. if anything, it looks more like a pin that only just protruded. ...

joelcf replied Sep 23, 2009To be honest, it suprised the hell out of me. I was looking for a modest bounce and retest. *edit* i think i scared the girl next to me on the train when it took off and I swore a little louder than I thought (damn earphones) Interesting how it ...

joelcf replied Sep 23, 2009I was hoping for a PPZ bounce, but this pin was good enough for me. Bam. 1.6975 target. (also, I got completely screwed on the spread. 14 pips, ffs. New broker time...though I think my slowass mobile internet dealie had a bit to do with the slip) ...

joelcf replied Sep 23, 2009You are WAY too zoomed in. You need to be able to see the big picture, not like 5 bars. How are you going to draw PPZ/SR levels, or check out important price levels, or see the general trend? These bars need to be taken IN CONTEXT. You cant just ...

joelcf replied Sep 22, 2009If the next bar doesnt break it for me, I kill the trade. It's all about momentum, and if the next bar doesnt follow through then I would rather avoid the hassle. I completely stole this approach from Mike, so cant take credit. On the other hand, ...

joelcf replied Sep 22, 2009Its a pretty looking pin, nice shape and extrusion at a swing high, and a deviant side to her... but she's damaged goods IMO. Size is way too small compared to the big bullish bar and the trend behind it, and running into big resistance at every ...

joelcf replied Sep 22, 2009Personally, I woulda given this one a wide berth just because you are looking at a breakout from bars formed in a low volume session, so it isnt really the kind of flow *I* want to see. That's just me though, mainly because I am a complete wuss when ...
