smikester replied Jan 26, 2010Thanks for the chart. I would not normally trade off M15. I sometimes use it to get in on a retracement. If we look at the weekly chart we can see we are at support of a range that has been there since March 2009 If this support breaks then we can ...

smikester replied Jan 26, 2010My H4 bar closes in an hour. If it closes fairly solid I'll be taking a shot off the top, long with an initial TP the length of the bar. This is because it will be a bullish, engulfing bar. It may take a while to reach, I'm not sure. I also see ...

smikester replied Jan 26, 2010For the longer term traders the head and shoulders played out better than we could have hoped and we are now sitting on 127. A solid daily close below 127 and we are on our way to 11x fast and by fast I mean sell the house, the wife the kids. Take ...

smikester replied Jan 25, 2010I know the feeling. Get used to it.
I use S/R and trend lines and price action and sometimes fibs. So we have to wait to see if we get price action off the 38.2 before we can comment? Correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not a Fibonnacci expert. I even ...EUR/GBP - What a great pair to trade!

smikester replied Jan 25, 2010It might be a bit hasty, but I am talking about the ones who managed the financial rout. I don't have an ounce of envy for anyone who bankrupts a bank. If I invested in a hedge fund and lost money I wouldn't use them again. You surely don't agree ...

smikester replied Jan 22, 2010The only stupid question is when it doesn't get asked, or something like that. I seem to remember PC liking small ranges - i.e. a small inside bar - and small spreads. I'll leave the rest to work out for yourself.
