ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Compare these to my GU long EP which was less than 5 pips above the upper band of the dragon.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009I posted about this as recently as this weekend. I like my EP to be within 10 pips of the band, and no more than 20. Each of these, at least when I was posting, had EP's > 10 pips from the upper band of the dragon.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Each trade is its own. You will after a time figure out what works for you and also you will figure out, to paraphrase Keny Rogers, when you should hold them and when you should fold them and when you should walk away and when you should run! I am ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009And I will add a fourth concern - my broker's spread ont he EJ is usually 1.2 pips and my spread on the UJ is usually .6-.9, and my spread on the GU is usually 1.8. My spreads this afternoon have been 2-3 times normal. That makes me think that there ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Possibly. Three things concern me about both the EJ and the UJ right now: 1) We are looking at EP's well above the upper band of the dragon unless you entered early, i.e. right about now; and 2) It is taking too long for these to trigger; and 3) the ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Well, first of all when Sonic wrote of a 40 pip minimum SL, that was last October. The EJ had 600 pip/day moves back then! But now, price is much less volatile. I have had many SonicR trades where my first stop loss is only 10-20 pips. In my ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009I guess. But it seems to me if you are trying to learn to see price action, it would be easier without a bunch of lines that are not price action. What does the grid add, i.e. how does it benefit your trading? Just asking.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009It is very similar to Sonic's EU short earlier. I guess it is technically a SonicR short, but like I said about the EU, I do not like the waves there. I like to trade when the waves are more clear and distinct and when they don't overlap back and ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009You must have been posting as I was posting the same. Yes, there now appears to be a potential SonicR long on the EJ.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Now the EJ looks to be setting up a possible SonicR long

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009No, I didn't like the waves. I wouldn't even have noticed that trendline, I would not have drawn that trendline, or considered that trendline at all. I trade S/R and waves only.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009I do not see a SonicR short or long on the EU. Wait for the waves, Sonikers. The GU was the only pair making waves this morning. Everything is is just puddle ripples.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Consistency, consistency, consistency ... the M15 is a consistent winner over time, whereas the M5 is not. The only time I used the M5 regularly for good, regular profits, was Fall of 2008 and Spring of 2009 when these things were moving 2-3% per ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009Ok, I am at break even on the stop loss, and my TP1 is +55 and my TP2 is +100. Let the market decide for me.

ddaytrader replied Dec 14, 2009While I have a bearish bias, I cannot let that stop me from trying these longs on the GU. The first try was a break even deal. And this one may end the same way. My buddy just reminded me that we have a fed meeting this week, so we may not get sonic ...
