Thanks for looking. I agree with your daily chart. My charts show a few differences in the detail (eg: 4 Oct 2010 bar closes at 1.3278). Currently they have a 5pm EST close, but with the day light saving shifts, I think they closed an hour later ...

I'm wondering if the 1.3250 could be an important level before the 1.3300. Cheers, John

Sorry, got my BRN and RNs mucked up. I waited for a 1h close followed by entry on a retrace. I was playing around with smaller stops as the 1.3540ish and 1.3500 were worries, price had already used up approx 50 of its ADR, and (to use Mike's words) ...

Yes, pretty much agree. Attempting to use Jarroo's refinement of identifying PPZ's the 1.3570 is interesting on the EurUSd (look at 4h as well). Maybe I was lucky, but after it broke through around the European open, I sold on a retrace. So maybe ...

The 1.6075ish area?

james16 Chart Thread

I'm still working at this too. But something to consider is that you may not need to move straight to BE at the FTA. Maybe just move your SL CLOSER to BE. Quite often following entry off the high or low of a PA bar, the PA bar's high or low then ...

Hi, Many seem to use buffers of between 5-10 pips on daily's and a bit more (15 or so) on the weekly. Looking for price flips zones, I had 1.3350 marked, so you'd want to be confident that price had broken through this and that the 1.3350 was going ...

Jarroo, I've spent a lot of time on the private forum and hadn't checked this forum for a long time until around Christmas when I noticed a lot of your guidance for Pinbar. This got me digging. Until then, I thought I had understood the PPZ concept ...

UsdJpy — 4h pin bounce off earlier support area. Long 5 above break of 4h pin @120.65, stop below pin @120.10. Exited for sleep @120.84 after price had already moved it's ATR (72pips) and retraced a little off the weekly pivot area (120.95). ...

If you're asking about how to calculate your position size when Usd is not the terms currency (in this case, gbp is the base currency and jpy is the terms currency), I do the following. Please note that there are many other ways of determining ...

Yes, I've closed metatrader and then copied & pasted the .ex4 files into Program Files/Metatrader4/experts/indicators folder. I then reopen metatrader and but they are not in the custom indicators list? Then when I go back into my explorer and ...

Help with .ex4 files — I'm also having trouble with the .ex4 files. I know how to install a .mq4 file into metatrader, but could someone tell us what to do with the .ex4 files. Thanks.

2006 backtest analysis — Thanks TeamAphid for your efforts. Am I interpreting this correctly? Your 2006 spreadsheet backtest results DON'T include spread costs. So as there were 448 trade positions taken for the year, the spread costs would be ...

Bago, It hasn't been provided. Just use the standard MT4 fib retracement tool as described on page #1 of the pdf. Also, if you want the prices displayed at the various levels, you can just type @%$ in the Description column. For example, for Level ...

I tried following the rules, but sleep got in the way, which I think will compromise everyone's ability to follow it 100% (unless I'm having a blonde moment with order options??...please let me know!). I set a Stop sell for trade 1 @ 1.9671 (filled) ...

USDJPY short entry — Habeeb, Hope your 120.54 short entry works out. You seem to favour retrace entries on the pins like this. I'm curious what was your entry criteria. Was it the 78% retrace (120.55) of the daily pin? I was considering the ...

james16 Chart Thread

Yes, also a 4h EurJpy pin. Although playing the bounce and going short would have been profitable, I'm still happy (ok, I'm trying to convince myself) that I was only looking to go long due to the bullish direction of the DBLHC's and, as you've ...

james16 Chart Thread

Thanks Mike. While a short trade may work, your other posts cautioning trades against the direction of the carry trades rang bells with me, so I think I'll favour going long so as to be with the direction of the DBLHC and the carry trades. I suppose ...
