Hey Elijah, No I wouldn't have. One of the criteria I have for my pinbars is for them not to be in any sideways market. If I am visually looking at a chart and the bars to the left are sideways, I pass on the trade. Instead I observe a possible ...

Just as an added note, for something I observe personally. There are 3 major types of pins IMO. You have: 1. Pins that are countertrend, after large moves up or down, where one feels liek they are going against the longer term trend- such as the ...

Hey lstd, Quite often some of the best pins come off Countertrend trades, because a pinbar is a reversal bar. Of course they can come up as retracements to the trend etc. I like pinbars when they are at really nice swing highs/lows, with big noses, ...

hey akhan, Be careful here, that bar you have circle is a neutral bar. When the open and close are towards the center of the bar like that, it shows indecision in the market. Best, Mike

Oanda does

Brokers offering Gold and Silver instruments to US clients

Once you learn the ropes on a demo, I think an account at oanda is great. Like billflet said no minimum, and their position granularity allows you to trade as low as 1 unit. so you can trade for less then pennies a point, but start to experience ...

Hey Sid, When we say the pin bar broken, we mean the low(if we are shorting) or the high of the bar(if we are taking a long). So in the case of the post you are referring to we wait until price breaks the high of the pinbar to enter our trade(the ...

I said that is the BEST buob. Not the only kind. Either way your bar looks more neutral to me, but as we both no this is no exact science. I play buob only when the close is higher and they have much greater success rate. Just think it's better for ...

james16 Chart Thread

going to have to respectfully disagree, you can trade a BUOB/BEOB the same as all the price bars, on the close, on the break, on the retrace also your close really isn't high enough(that is more of a neutral bar). You want the close to be higher ...
