This just gives me some new ideas/inspiration about how to play countertrend trades...it is still germinating, there are a some parameters to establish, the price action-based structure to refine/put in place, then of course, the testing ...

Any reason you didnt go with the 1.3550 area? It has the 61% fib, the h4 trendline meets around there....

Very simply, PIP DAWG told me. He likes to dress up as a "suicide bomber vest wearer/forex trader". You dont believe me? Here is the proof: image

I see. Now i think i get it. This is the daily chart EUR/USD...personally, i will prefer your idea of zooming to lower time frame(the area between the daily 38 and 50 fib level) and looking for a solid S/R to place my SL. If that S/R level also ...

hey, CUSTOS, our silly little EUR/USD has reached 1.3678, clearing the +20 pips minimum requirement from entry point 1.3650. Anyways....still thinks LO is a good reason to avoid it.... On ENTRY with regards to using S/R levels on lower time ...

Momentum Ratio — MOMENTUM RATIO( aka M.R) Sometimes, i also like to look for ratio of candles. If it takes 6 candles to retrace from point A to point B, but it now take 3 candles to go from point B back to point A, it behooves me to think that ...

I can see the logic of what you are saying, but i will have to diverge. I mean, it make sense to place SL behind s/r levels on lower time frames. However, from my little observation, when you have such tight confluence of S/R, RN, FIB level within ...

That makes sense, i mean, why not? S/R levels are flip side of the same coin. Now, i am confused. i thought your question was about entry...now, it is about exit? ADDENDUM: I mean, if you are trying to determine exit point by looking for confluence ...

Hmmm....i will have to disagree here, sniper-master. The FIB levels are the FIB levels...they are based on fibbonacci. I dont want to tweak them. I understand the why you suggested tweaking the FIB level -- nailing entry is difficult(isnt it ...

EUR/USD at 1.3650 and EUR/AUD at 1.5200 are such obvious TT points it is not even funny. But LONDON open can cause such zigzags, as such, i had to let them go....anyways, you cant win them all.... EDIT: EUR/AUD already reached +20, +25 pips...oh ...

I cannot bring myself to TT EUR/USD at 1.3650 and EUR/AUD at 1.5200. London open may mess up things....shame though. Yes, i took the NZD/CAD...That was my chart. I posted it. It has already went past the projected pattern PT. EDIT: I think i will ...
