Looks like you got the safer entry (I came close to a stop) - good job I won't be holding over the weekend either. I'm happier now it's over that trend line

Long on the EU... not sure if it will turn a drought into a famine today Golden zone retracement, backed up with a RN and a couple of AB=CD patterns. A few hurdles to get through first, but it is in line with the bullish order flow since NY ...

Hi Mack, very slim pickings for me today. I also tried to short EU, but a bit earlier on. Ended up scratch. My tick chart looks totally different today to the time-based chart so I've tried to pick out your entry. I actually gave up and went to ...

Very nice analysis Wolves77 I've kind of got out of the habit of doing detailed bar-by-bar analysis, partially because my tick chart redraws bars but that really isn't any excuse. Thanks for reminding me to stop being lazy!

How to NOT DRAW indie buffers in MT4?

Do you have any specific rules regarding minimum retracement? Personally, I'm always very wary of anything that doesn't make at least a 38.2 retracement (23.6 on a wild move). That introduces another problem: where to draw the fib from on a news ...

Thanks Mack, I got out at +55 pips... it fell a fair way more after that but hey ho I'm looking for a re-entry on either EU or GU if there is a safe retrace.

Good morning everyone Short on GU. Counter trend but with the benefit of a tight stop (just above the round number). 2 over-extensions into a major round number. Europe not showing much interest in blasting through. Entry was on the second test ...

The initial target has been hit. There are a lot of barriers ahead (nested pivots and a RN) so it'll be kept on a very tight leash. I expect to close this out shortly. image

You're absolutely right that it helps to see how other people trade. I think this thread is fairly strange for FF in so much as none of the frequent posters trade in quite the same way - we all have our little nuances. I do understand your ...

Hi Wolves77, A couple of conflicting adages: 'nobody ever went broke taking a profit' -and- 'run your winners'. I don't trade UJ (or time based charts), so please bear that in mind but a few thoughts spring to mind... all with the benefit of 20:20 ...

Ratios & Harmonics: a Different Way to Trade

Good question. I think it is important to make a distinction between holding a losing position in the hope that it will come good (or at least to break even) versus holding a winning position in the hope it will yield even more pips (and would be a ...
