Alorente replied Jul 21, 2024Sorry guy, I did not say such a thing. Don't put words in my mouth. You better read more carefully. "Fail safe SL" What the hell is that? There is nothing fail safe in this business. What I did say is: 1 - The Green MA is really only used for stop ...

Alorente replied Jul 21, 2024I am 74 and sleep sporadically as it is usual at my age. For me it is actually a good distraction to check the chart on the phone when I wake up several times in the middle of the night. Also, at my age, I donīt have a job waiting for me in the ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024I just closed all Gold trades, why? Because two H1 candles hit the ADR daily limit and did not pierce it. Also, it is Friday and I am tired of looking at the screen. Made plenty of money with the trade... I deserve a break...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024Some pointers: 1- You should switch to M30 on Gold. 2- If price hits the 20 EMA you should be alert. 3- If the 10 EMA turns up with an M30 candle close you should be alert and ready to close trades. 4- If price continues past the 20 EMA, close all ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024I always close all trades prior to the weekend, even if technically they are still alive. A lot can happen over the weekend and most of the time, it is not good.

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024I would have opened my first Sell at the crossing point. 1.0903. After that, I would continue to add Sells with each kiss of the 10 EMA. It is always a good idea to enter in steps. If your full trade is 1 lot, open 0.2 lot trades each time. I also ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024I confess: I love scalping ranging markets. That is why I created the Extreme TMA system. It is a ranging market system. But... that is after 40 years of trading and licking a lot of wounds... What I am saying is, you do not need to range trade or ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024I spot it early by using three MAs. I use the 10 EMA (White), 20 EMA (Orange) and 49 LWMA Green. When they cross and the 10 begins to steepen, I enter. I actually use the M30 charts for most pairs, but depending on the volatility of the pair you may ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024I used to use simple MAs but in reading great traders stories, I learned that the EMA follows price even closer so I switched. The key to trading is to stay out of non trending markets. You will consistently lose money. Once you convince yourself to ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024Here are EU and GU H1 charts of the same fall. As you can see, they respect the 10 EMA (White line). It works... That is why the pros use it. Trading is simpler than you are led to believe. We make it complicated...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024It is not a matter of courage. Take any strongly trending move and use the 10 EMA on an H1 chart. If the 10 EMA starts changing direction, you exit. Look at the EURUSD fall and apply the 10 EMA. It respects it. It works for all pairs on strong ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024In my trade, I am in since 2467. I am adding new Sells when price approaches the 10 EMA, but I am not closing previous trades. That is called the caterpillar strategy. If price breaks the 10 EMA clearly, I will close everything. That is my exit ...

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024The Pink line where price is now is the 200 SMA. I expect it to pause here or slight bounce before the next fall. Look at how it behaved at the 200 EMa in May.

Alorente replied Jul 19, 2024No, donīt play the bounces. It is not worth it and it is dangerous to go against the trend. Also, price can move sideways to the EMA. Just Sell when it gets close to it.
