clockwork71 replied Apr 26, 2009I don't worry as much about such things, no. The main reason is they aren't as liquid as Forex. (Meaning that you are more likely to skip a tick than in currencies.) Besides, the longer I trade, the more I understand it's the "spirit" of the bar at ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 25, 2009I wonder why Soros is the one who gets all the credit. It seems people forget that Jim Rogers was his partner at the Quantum Fund.

clockwork71 replied Apr 25, 2009Correct. I don't really have a hard and fast rule about risk vs. reward, but there is common sense to it. I would never risk 200 pips to gain 50, for example. I might risk 200 to gain 200, it would just depend on the particular set up. But the ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 25, 2009I agree with this post. It's really about major, or at least more major "like" areas to take a trade off of. The original post made the comment of a pinbar being off of a "minor" area. That sentence was key in my opinion. I know it would have worked ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 24, 2009I have to admit.....I kinda got lazy on the Euro lately......but 1.24 is OBVIOUSLY a serious area. Great chart.

clockwork71 replied Apr 24, 2009BINGO. This is EXACTLY the kind of trading that I do. Once you get a good "runner", you will never look back, trust me on this. If we can now get through 1.20 - look out below.

clockwork71 replied Apr 23, 2009I used to take partial profits, but I had a thought one day: "Do I take partial losses?" The math doesn't work out. As far as exits, you are correct, it comes down to what you are comfortable with. CW

clockwork71 replied Apr 22, 2009I would sit and watch it for a bit.....I don't like the shape of that BEOB. It would be better if it closed towards the bottom of that bar....or at least closer to it. However, it does seem to look like a short to me. I agree with the pivot area you ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 22, 2009Nice.....to be honest, I didn't even notice that. This chart is a perfect example of why confluence works......here you have two traders, one of which is focusing on one thing, the other is focusing on a different trend line altogether. Both are ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 21, 2009I would say that I trade outside and pins about the same amount. Inside bars I rarely trade, it's just a personal preference thing.
