alcastro replied Mar 18, 2007I am waiting for a rebound to the long side from the 21 MA for both the Euro and the cable. If I see it, and a TC pattern I will very probably take the trade. If it goes south, I will wait for a retracement and a TC pattern as well. Does anybody has ...

alcastro replied Mar 16, 2007One thing I do (which may burn me soon) is that once a signal is given, I don't pull the trigger right away. I see if price falls a little (long trade). In this case it did fall a little right down in between the 8 ema and 21 ema and then it went ...

alcastro replied Mar 15, 2007Trader, If you open several trades in correlated pairs aren't you increasing your risk level? If one goes wrong all will go wrong. Of course if they go right you will be handsomely rewarded. But if that is the case, why not open a trade in a single ...

alcastro replied Mar 15, 2007hey Steve, I noticed that you have decided to go back to your original plan: If stopped and previous bar is long-go long...if previous bar is short-go short. If the bar is a doji, continue the trend. (did I get it right?). If so, have you seen back ...

alcastro replied Mar 14, 2007Hi Pilgrim, I like your rules. They are simple..no fuss here. Only high probability trades...why increase the risk in an already risky business? One question though....can you elaborate a little more on #3? Do you mean: go short if the bar crosses ...

alcastro replied Mar 14, 2007Razldazl, we sold at exactly the same price. My s/l is near yours, at 44. 4hr MACD is still on the short side, and the 1hr shows a TC. The previuos two candles in my chart, in the 4hr were spinning tops and doji, bouncing from the 8MA and closing ...
