clockwork71 replied Apr 16, 2009I agree as well. It's a little more aggressive to enter on a pullback blindly, but as long as you accept your risk, why not? I would still have stops above that "8 hr pin", to make sure you don't get whipped out, and that it's a real move of sorts. ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 16, 2009Yeah I have been watching that one myself. Here's my thought on that pair though.....it's more of a "relative strength" pair for me. It tells me how each one is going to do against the USD.....if AUD looks weak against NZD, and they both are setting ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 15, 2009The most important thing about entries. — I know I keep harping on this, but it's only because it's so important. You need to have a couple of reasons to enter a trade. I always ask a few questions before I enter a trade: Is this at an "area". ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 15, 2009Personally, I would have shorted at 101 if I were inclined to. Also, I would have been watching the 99 area for support. Since it went below, I would have been moving stops to b/e by now, if not a little lower. It would have only been one trade for ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 14, 2009The first chart didn't have that far to go , relative to the size of the bar. The next trouble spot was just below. The second chart is a grade B trade in my opinion. Not bad, just not great.

clockwork71 replied Apr 13, 2009The CAD is a little different because it's possible that this "triangle" might turn out to be a rectangle. The AUD is a definite "W" however.....so it's a little more clear. This CAD really could turn into a large rectangle.

clockwork71 replied Apr 13, 2009EXACTLY. There is an order to how I look at a trade: #1 - Location. Is it near or at a zone? Or better yet in this case.......are we heading into an area? #2 - Type of bar. #3 - Confluence. Is it at a fib level? etc, etc. This trade violates rule #1 ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 13, 2009The fact that the AUD has broke above this 7250 area, which would have been a triple top, is very bullish. In fact, I went long after it held above for a few hours. I am actually in at 7271. I am willing to take a chance on letting this one run - if ...

clockwork71 replied Apr 13, 2009Yes and no. I would have been concerned about 99. (Take a look, you can see where a line should go. I think of this as one big area.....waiting to prove itself.

clockwork71 replied Apr 12, 2009I would have been in on bar 1. What you are thinking is what I do on breakouts. For example, on the USD/CAD, I would want to see a breakthrough move at 1.30, then a retest. However, either way is valid. In fact, the pull back method is a more ...
