Exited USDCAD trade from yesterday on touch of 1.100 for 125pips on a risk of 20 image Now, is it getting too cocky to try and go for another breakout of 1.100? Its a pretty big ppz level, looking at the recent history... image

Retrace to touch a PPZ and big round number, in the direction of the daily and short term trends? Sounds like a homerun to me. Nice trade wrt to 'trend bailing you out', I use it in reference to getting sh!tty entries, missing obvious ...

Nah. You cant be Livermore without occasionally wearing a sack/barrel. Not that I actually want to be. Livermore, while clearly a brilliant mind, was also a degen gambler. And there is nothing cool about that. There is just something about the ...

FCOJ — (sorry for the dodgy web charts, forgot to post NT charts last night) Aaron, you should appreciate this one. Original entry was @ 100 (although I got screwed by slippage), and doubled up on the break of the daily pin. Sept. image ...

Not to mention the fun and games when your boss/some jerkoff editor/etc decides to change things around at the last minute (often for random, arbitary reasons) and completely screw up the entire publication. Regularly. Moving from words to numbers ...

yeah, not in love with it. only wanted to try and squeeze in 40 or so pips down to 77.60, then possibly hit the big PPZ around 7700. Below that, there is a PPZ around 74.50, then 71.00. One to get to b/e and give room to run, if it cooperates... Its ...

Who are you with? None of my brokers have that cross. Even my australian one Looking to get short on AUDJPY too, so hopefully I have rac-confluence *edit* I lie, IB had it, but with a terrible spread.

MT4 or possibly me, for not looking closely at the charts it has been outputting for the last two years or so... Stuck at a conference all day, so completely serious but also slightly delirious. AUDJPY has been firmly rejected on the 1H. Might ...

Looks good, but beware of the bigass PPZs below image image *edit* Wow. Only just figured out that Metatrader cuts off like half the chart when you use the 'Save 800*600' option. Jerk.

USDCAD 4H — Caught a nice breakout on USDCAD 4H. Went straight to where I expected too, which is always nice image image Only other thing that interests me so far tonight is the 4H AUDJPY outside bar. Obvious PPZ below. image Shouldnt ...

Ima draw a picture. It isnt a Monet; it is more like a crayon drawing. But... The S&P is at a precarious place at the moment - the rally, fuelled largely on speculation and hope, has petered out. Is it overbought? Is there more bad news? No one is ...

I'd pass on this guy. As Ben said, location is nice but the pin is a baby in a field of bulls and bears (or, in what seems to be the current lexicon, a 'poodle bar'). But my main issue with it is the lack of protrusion from the surrounding bars - it ...

Easiest wway to remember is that it is the market bidding for your shares, or asking $x for them, not what you are doing...'Bask' and 'bidS' have saved me from screwing up more than once I found the button in MT4 to turn on the ask line, and it ...

Wow. So, the best thing I learned today was that dinger does not mean the same thing in america as it does here.. url It doesnt mean anything, per se. Basically, most charting packages are dumb. Or were dumb - high end stuff is smarter now, but ...

Assuming you are careful with this one around this trouble, looks good *edit* (for the initial pin. no way i would chase this one). Id be getting to b/e though, just in case... she definitely has a big fake down to retest in the universe of ...

Sorry, lol. I know where the big resistance is, I was being a touch too flippant for my own good now, the real question is... north or south? I wouldnt dream of touching this one, that PPZ simply isnt something you screw around with. In case ...

Crude 4H — Almost feel like there might be some kinda PPZ around here somewhere... now where could it be? image *edit* Welcome! I found the absolute best way to learn is to post setups yourself and get feedback from some of the ...

Its formed a sweet bullish looking bar on the hourly, so it will probably work out for you if it can bust the highs around 134.85... there seems to be a bear sitting in the middle of the path. Price keeps coming back, so it might only be a medium ...

EJ 4H — not a fan of EJ. Looking at the daily, it isnt definitively with the trend - although it could be! Looks like it could easily head south still. Plus, that big PPZ doesnt wanna be broken just yet, although there is clearly upwards ...
