Anybody noticing a lot of mixed signals? Example(one of many) gbp/usd: weekly pin, in conflict with previous pin (suggesting a long) with the big 50% fibo chris mentioned, and hidden divergence (signifying a trend continuation) on the weekly chart, ...

Thanks for the input stefan, the majors still seem a little choppy right now, so it could just be foolishness on my part for trading them, but I think things will improve. Truthfully, several weeks back I kept getting into what I thought were long ...

Thank you Helen. You will be missed. My condolences to Ted and her family.

If the 3H wedge/pennant formation is any indication, you might just get your wish.

gbp/usd short update: SL at BE (again). If this one fails I'll give up and wait for some honest-to-god PA, at a nice location, with some supporting evidence, as per the usual SS method. image image

Awesome post nomask. Top notch analysis. Though maybe I say that because I agree 100%. That post has really brought something into focus for me, that the three trades I took last week are still perfectly valid. Two got stopped out at BE, and one I ...

Me too...I'm just hoping for some good entry PA. If not, too bad. move on, other fish in the sea and all that.

CW and Soca, Thanks for your thoughts, sometimes I think I ramble-on too much on this thread, but this psychological stuff, trade management, and exits are really important, because it's easy to get into a good trade, and hard to figure out what to ...

Excellent observations Soca, I did consider trailing, but minor SR levels weren't exactly obvious unless I took them off of a M15, and really, I was trying to give the trades a chance to run. Exits, exits, exits..... This one of my weak points. I ...

CW, These three trades were really interesting to me, because once they were into a good bit of profit, I got that nervous/anxious feeling I used to get when I was overleveraged, or just in a dumb trade. We hear the stories about people who take too ...

update: kiwi and cable shorts got stopped out at BE last night. just closed my cad long for 175 pips, because after watching more than half of my floating profit dissappear on the other two trades, I wanted to have something to show for myself.

this is really hard for me..... — My update: Well folks, I've decided to have a little faith, and leave my three trades open. The positions are: Long usdcad @ 108.60 Short nzdusd @ 0.6758 Short gbpusd @ 1.6566 The first two were taken off the ...

It's interesting you bring this up, as I find myself unintentionally hedging trades for the same reason: that I'm not paying attention to correlations. Curiously though, each trade was taken on it's own merit, and has it's own plan, and I may just ...

For those of you unfamiliar with Oanda, the little arrows are the entry, pointing the direction of the trade, the red lines are the stops. So here's my trades: image image image

It's not a broker difference. I just know gaps like to close. Most of the time.

Anybody notice all the gaps tonight? I've got three in my favor, but it makes me suspicious. Wondering if I should start closing, or just have a little faith. usdcad: long nzdusd: short gbpusd: short

calderone, I can see how moving from smaller TF's to this method would be hard in regards to stoplosses, but I've found it incredibly simple. Hell, Oanda lets you trade gold and silver, but they calculate it to the 4th decimal place, with one cent ...
