My opinion..... — Just for information.............I wouldn't even consider trying to trade, whatever the system I was using, unless I had the full complement of Pivot Points on the chart. They've proved time and again how useful they are for ...

Cornflower Hourly System

Point taken........... — You're absolutely right, Willem, and I should have mentioned the narrowing of the "war-zone". That's the beauty of this system; there's all sorts of signals indicating "GO" or "NO-GO". In short, the ideal system for a ...

Nearly the same....... — The following example was roughly the same time as my previous post's example. The EUR/USD, as you can see, also sharply rose until it started a gradual, and rather untidy, decline, until it ended up hammering a base ...

Good potential trade? — Hi folks. My first post for a while. It's still a bit of a trial getting on this forum, but Petrol's suggestion of using OPERA sounds interesting, although I tried FIREFOX once but I didn't like it much. Anyway, I'll ...

Re: ADX settings.... — Hi folks. Golfer - Many thanks for your comments, chum, and I can see where you're coming from as regards using the ADX as a confirmation rather than a filter. Speaking for myself, I do like to see some sort of movement ...

We think alike, my friend.... — Hi Willem. I was looking at that this morning, and my assessment was the same as yours, right down to the 21ema crossing that 0.1 line! In addition, on the price chart, when I see a crossover, I purposely wait ...

Unable to modify indicator properties... Anyone know why???

Changing properties...... — Hi. Not sure I can help, apart from letting you know that I shared your frustration up until about 6 months ago. I couldn't for the life of me work out how to change the properties in the custom indicators. I would ...

Unable to modify indicator properties... Anyone know why???

What's going on? — Hi folks. It's 22.55 here in the UK, and I'm wondering if anyone knows why there's so much price activity at a time when things are normally chugging along at a sleepy pace. Plus, the daily ranges of the pairs I'm looking at ...

Perfect......... — This is a beautiful trade. The price dropped rather fast, but then there was a gradual pull-back to the 10ema. I took the trade just as the candle crossed the S1 line. Look at those lovely candles dropping like a stone and ...

Replies...... — Hi Golfer. I'll look forward to seeing your chart, mate. I wouldn't have taken the trade, as I said, but if you did, and made 10 pips, what can I say? Well done! emacro, I can see on your chart where I took my trade, ...

A follow-up..... — Hi. Further to my last chart example (EUR/USD), you'll note that right after I exited the trade, three bearish candles took the price to the 21ema. Aha! Another potential trade looming, you'd think. However, have a look at ...

Much better..... — This is a much better example of the sort of pull-back to look for. In the blue rectangle, the price hit R2 and was engulfed by a large bearish candle. At first, not a good sign, as it indicated a potentially similar ...

The big picture..... — This example of EUR/JPY from this morning, shows how important it is to view the "big picture" before making a trade. As you can see, the price steadily rose, and actually went through the Pivot Point, and touched the M3 ...

Many thanks, Willem.... — Yep, it's a nice pattern, mate. Something else I've just noticed from your chart, which I didn't notice on mine........it looks very like one of your "three little sisters" formations, but I might be wrong. It has ...

A nice little earner............ — There's no doubt that EUR/JPY has been throwing up some good examples lately of "get-in" trades and "stay-out" trades. This one from around 1600 GMT yesterday is a good example. At 1505 GMT the price pierced ...

Charts v Text descriptions......... — Many thanks for your comments, Willem. When I first started coming on this Forum, one of the things I really liked about it was the many charts that people posted. For me, it's much better to examine a ...

Saved by the Pivots again..... — Another example of how strong pivot lines can sometimes be. In this EUR/JPY chart from this morning, there is a virtual battle going on between price and pivot line, with the price, in the end, forced to ...

Thanks, Willem.... — You make it sound like a work of art, Willem! Seriously, it's always nice when things just seem to fall into place, even though they sometimes have you tearing your hair out! (And in my case, there's not much ...
