the other day i bought gold and it said 100, 5 mins i was 3 pips up, it could never move 103 pips in 5 mins at 11pm uk time, its just the way oanda have to say it because of the decimal points

james16 Chart Thread

thank you, im still a bit short of understanding, i been looking to the left of chart for a swing high. So basically we want our bar whether it beob or pinbar to be in clear space making its own swing?, not ncessarily matching another swing high to ...

james16 Chart Thread

hey Mike, can you just do me a huge favour and post a screenshot example of a BEOB at a swing high or opposite BUOB at a swing low. Much appreciated

james16 Chart Thread

only thing that confuses me about this way of thinking is that if it wasnt so strong then there would be loads of trouble areas going long, whereas now if it were to go long looks like quite a clean run, i hope you get my meaning im trying to get at ...

i took profits in the end, after seeing a pinbar formed on the hour, im happy to rip over 100 pips out the market in one trade when risk was 70 pips on to the next trade

james16 Chart Thread

thank you, im thinking of tightening stop to around 125.30

james16 Chart Thread

thanks Mike for the prompt reply, reason for selling was a h4 rejection of a respected down trendline i have, and a nice looking close below a h4 pivot zone. My main aim for first taking of profits was the lows of alot of bars at 125.87ish, not alot ...

im already long here from 0.9861

james16 Chart Thread

spread here says 75, but im guessing that means 0.75 lol anyway minimum lot is $1 a pip, so i cant afford to trade it

james16 Chart Thread

ah i think i get it now, gold is 1/1 leverage on oanda isnt it, so the minimum i can trade is $1 a pip, but with my risk percentage i cant trade at $1 a pip, so think i will have to miss this good looking gold trade

james16 Chart Thread

just to calirfy, whats the symbol im looking for, and if possible can u pop a screenshot of your gold spread on oanda here thank you, so i can see if im looking at the right thing
