That is a "two-bar pin bar." Definitely tradeable imho. I love these things! If you look at the first top of the triple top on your chart there is nother 2-bar PB that went well.

CADCHF — When I read what Jim says, e.g., the above chart, and hear him say "this stuff is dirt simple, folks," I invariably find myself saying, "He's right, he's right, he's right," and it gives me confidence. Thanks, Jim, and everyone else ...

I've heard a lot of people predicting a bear market rally. Maybe it will be a long term H&S pattern.

Confirmation of Swiss intervention — It is confirmed that the Swiss intervened in their currency and may very well do it again. There is also speculation that the BOJ will intervene in the Yen market too. Of course, the SNB and BOJ simply ...

I display one chart at a time since I am doing this on a laptop. And I move up and down the TFs, weekly, daily, 4hr. I don't look at the daily too much, until the daily closes. Same with weekly.

Thanks ghous. I was kind of thinking the same thing myself, instead of letting the immediate "results" dictate my thoughts on the propriety and quality of the entry and then beating myself up over it, while I am still in it. This trade might be ...

Its a demo account with about $11,400 in it and I risked 0.14 lots with 221 pip stop. So about 2.7% risked. I always use correct position sizing. Doing it just like I will when I go live. Not too worried about it, but I could have done better, and ...

I don't like that bar at all to be truthful. It does not qualify as a PB as far as I am concerned. I have read several times that a PB should "jump out at you" and be "obvious." This bar does not and is not imho. Which of course means it will fall ...
