vlady1974 replied Oct 10, 2014Just had a look at this now (back in the office).... that last TZ looks really....EVEN. And price has come back to clear it. What we should now be looking for is a close outside of bollinger which should hopefully coincide with an Uneven TZ bottom. ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 10, 2014The Even TZ had been cancelled the following day. Any subsequent return to the range should noted but the initial "return" has been already achieved so is weaker - but not completely irrelevant. The last UnEven TZ is a bottom, so price is heading ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 9, 2014Took profit on the triggered. The mistakes I let the BE (-20 combined) take them out as I want to set this strategy as mechanical as possible - warts and all.

vlady1974 replied Oct 9, 2014Great stuff on the NZD! Just had a look on the CHF and that's looking good so far (igindex view though, no mt4).

vlady1974 replied Oct 9, 2014Good. But take care with that last statement of intent. You have to find your own trigger based on this thread's principles! In the early pages, it is clear that entries are based on essentially a breakout. Long A = a level seen on previous bars, ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 9, 2014Do you add the drawdown as part of your risk calculation? One of the biggest trading issues I battle with on a personal level is overtrading and trade size management. About 4 years ago, I must have blown 5x (ie. refunded) on an account. The funny ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 9, 2014I have a Long EU triggered at 2761 I have an Long order for AU at 8883 I have open Longs for EU and EJ at 2780 (this was a mistake but I kept it open) and 137.70 These are underwater, but I am expecting more upside at 3X the drawdown risk.

vlady1974 replied Oct 9, 2014I think firstly, if you get the idea or principle - then you are able to adapt it to your personal biases. Often, we mimicry is the best way to learn for mechanical things where repetition eventually gives understanding. So as children growing to ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 8, 2014It should be regular practice (especially newbies) to start any intra-day analysis using the 4H and zoom out. Mark the territory, then begin going into lower time-frame. Higher timeframes always trump smaller timeframes. Period. Any S/R on a 5M is ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 8, 2014No. Absolutely not. This is the demise of most newbies. Including you. If you implemented this "system" as you are describing it, with your rules and what-not, the moment it no longer applies to you - the minute it suffers a draw-down or consecutive ...

vlady1974 replied Oct 8, 2014It's not your journal so I don't care. But if you did, as long as it was related to the topic and the technique then it would be fine. But again, it's not about your results. There are 1000+ strategies that work in FF... who gives a shit about ...
