Looks good to me too. However, now I've got my inside bar senses working more effectively
can I ask whether that inside bar 2 bars back from the entry was cause for concern before going long? We had 3 bars in a row with big upper wicks showing ...intraday trend trading with price action

Hey, I took that last trade for 30 pips and you say it was A+.
Now I feel better.

I know you're not telling me Sho, I really like your method and can clearly see the results from the charts everyone is posting. I just need to work on my implementation and spot warning signs like IBs which I miss again and again.....

Thanks Sho, sound advice. I'll stick with it and try to be more patient.

Thanks for the chart Sho. So the reaction to the inside bar plus the subsequent struggle to go higher should have warned us to keep out of that first trade. Can I ask, must a momentum bar have very small or no wicks at all? I'm still trying to learn ...

And the stochs moving up and down signify the waves right? So to minimize risk on a 15M entry, try to wait until the 1 or 5 min stochs are maxed out before entering? I wasn't sure about your comments on the 10 pip entry. Was that taken off the 15 ...

It's hard when you miss an entry on a runaway day like this isn't it?

Thanks for the explanation Francis. I'll check out the stochs on the 15M, 5M and 1M charts around that pull back and see if I can learn something.

Nice trade adler. I can tell you're a patient kind of guy. I flagged it up as a potential but the stop was 20+ and since it ran away without any retrace I missed out. Story of my life at the moment.

Anything is worth a try Francis. Sounds like a good way of achieving the smaller stops I'm after. Thanks!

Yes, very nice trades. Did you get in on the close of the red bar with the arrow or play the 1M chart for entry that time Francis?

OK Francis, thanks for the advice. I'll keep my 15M chart for the setups and when I see one I'll enter on 1M. Cheers, Dave

I do like the 15 minute charts Francis and I've only just weaned myself off the 5 minute timeframe! I just wonder how Sho manages to trade with small risk on the 15m TF when I can't seem to get entries that run without risking 12-20+ pips. I keep ...

Could you explain the double top breach please tex? I can see a 2 bar double top and one with a fractal between (although one side is higher). Is the breach just failure of this with a bearish bar? Thanks!

Did anyone catch this trade? I think it followed the rules but the stop was too large for me and it never retraced enough to get me in for less risk.
