This is the correct chart. Still in a down move. Look at it end of day and say, where do I want to trade? I have a stock/futures account with me so I put in a futures trade at the pivot and where I thought simple50 might be. The pivot entry was hit, ...

They are not the same. One bar of pullback and then continuing on is just a pause in price. Now go back and look at 1079 and see the difference. There was a bunch of action and then a push higher Here there was no action, just a pause at 7 and ...

I know what the top pink line is... I mention the pink line for a very specific reason that I want you to think about. A reason that eliminates all the rest of the nonsense that you are doing when it comes to what I am showing here.

How is 5 a failure if you want to be long at 6? That isn't the trading I've been showing. So...let's start with... Why do you have a pink line up top?

double hmmmmmm.

Any chance you saw any of this differently? Do you completely agree with Rearden?

Gejordan Weekly Journal

it's raining... have a minute to peak in.... hmmmmm. I did all that work back on 1079 and this is what I get in return.

Next Week: No Bias. Follow the move. I would be cautious and on the watch for a push to the highs. Which means, don't be greedy on the shorts.

Gejordan Weekly Journal

Good one, end the week on an up note, doing things simply

Gejordan Weekly Journal

Idea #2 and #3 in action. Got a bit lucky on the simple50 retrace. Took a guess where it might be when I went to sleep, so got entry just a bit below its actual location. 65 pips. 30 of it from the pivot. Not being greedy as I don't typically trade ...

Rearden, when you wake up, give us the situation

Gejordan Weekly Journal

I've been using the wicks, too. Keeping it very basic. This would put lines and swings exactly where Rearden showed in post 1085.

For weekend homework, go back to post 945 and look for each weekly Sunday post where I gave the bias. Then ask yourself, at 10pm if I looked at the chart each night, where could I put in an entry? You should find your entries exactly where I entered ...

Good. When 3 becomes the high, 2/2a becomes the low. I used 2a today in case price broke down and stayed below during news. But it didn't so we wait. I'll check in the morning to see if it broke down overnight or moved up and adjust accordingly.

Profile says you are 5 hours ahead of me. Can you be at your system at 10pm your time each day? If so, you can do this. Even better if you could check in for a few minutes at anywhere from 11am-1pm your time.

Some practice for you... Are we in an up move or down move? Where is the swing high and swing low of that move?

Gejordan Weekly Journal

Swings ( I honestly don't believe there is anyone that has traded a while that doesn't understand this, I think it's the evil trading brain using it as an excuse, but for anyone new and as a refresher for everyone else, here is extremely basic 101 ...

Finally, I make notes of special or tricky situations. I have been through them so I point them out in this thread when they happen. If you find yourself trying to figure out what to do, you have just located a possible tricky situation. Write it ...

Give attention to each of those two statements and make sure what you are doing is not in contrast. WRITE THEM DOWN AND RESPECT THEM. If you aren't following them stop wasting your time trading. You will only lose money regardless your system if you ...

ok, so let's make it easier. I, 1. Get a bias on Sunday 2. At end of each day (between US/Asia) see if price is moving in the direction of the bias. If so, I can trade, if not, no trade. At its simplest, those are my rules for trading like this. So ...
