I might be being thick here and completely missing this but is there any pattern where the AB retracement of XA is BETWEEN 50-61.8%?

I went for a double move here, after taking 34 on the aggressive C I then reviewed and went in for a reversal at D as the bulls looked like they were on the attack. I decided to take all profit at normal TP1 38% as the momentum still seems to be ...

Yeah I have decided early on that if I take an aggressive C then it will always be with trend and never against. Every single one against trend has failed for me so far (albeit only about 5 trades but enough for me to close that book). On this ...

Yep I had that one penciled in but went for lunch and missed the entry!! That said I may be going in on an aggressive C if it turns at the 61.8% retracement with the flow of the market.

Hey Mr Pip, As requested here is a copy of the chart with the Gartley drawn out. You do see it go slightly through the PRZ but only by 1 pip so I accept this as still valid due to the next candle engulfing the previous one. It is then when this ...

Placed another trade a while ago, just waiting for it to play out as it is bouncing around at the moment. I placed the trade at the yellow dot as it completed a Gartley and ABCD pattern (also an area of S/R just below the PRZ). GBPUSD 5M TF. SL is ...

Very nice, I got in sooner than that as this is what I saw earlier. Got in and out for 9 pips so not too bad. Although, did I get a bit lucky here? Not sure I should have entered there or not for an aggressive C. It was in the direction of the ...

Hi Mr Pip, Just wondering if you could give some feedback on a trade I made last week. I have now had the time to go through most of the thread again and refresh my memory and clearly was missing some things. I have started a trading log so I can ...

Okay so I have another one that looking at it would have been a good trade (i think). We have a good bullish bat pattern playing out, strengthened by an ABCD completion and the bottom zone of R. One question on this, where would you be inclined to ...

I have just gone with this one too. This is only on my demo account for now, as I would need to have lots of money in a real account to let this run. This is for 2 reasons, 1) would need to cover a SL of about 150 pips 2) I am too impatient to let ...

Thanks Gaff, Are you saying the NSL was the candle 2 to the right of where I put it? Or the bottom swing, at LL? I thought the NHS then allowed for the new low at the first drop? Oh well, I think this is helping so thanks!! Now I have started to ...

Well wow, that went a bit wrong, looks like the Bulls came charging then!!! Should I have seen this and got out? image

Yeah this is true, I am just starting out and I know it is not a get rich quick thing. Yes the money will be great but the main thing to me is getting profit on the pips, as you said making 20 pips per day or something. As long as it is in the ...

So it looks like my GDP/USD trade is going in the right direction. Had a big rally whilst I was on my lunch and missed my take profit point by 5 pips. (the TP is on another account where I am playing real money and being a little conservative, on ...

Also, how about this one? This is the EURUSD Daily chart looking like hitting a PRZ. To confirm the signal we have - an ABCD completion from 1.33(ish) up to the PRZ - an agressive C entry looking at the ABCD from the high of 1.3820 - Bat completion ...

Okay so I have had a look at some of the shorter TF but making mistakes as I think I need to get my eye in a bit better, especially when you need to be quick to make the calls. So had a look at some higher TF and came up with this on the GBP/USD on ...

Thanks for the response (2 out of 4 answers ain't bad). I kind of knew your response on those first two when I was posting but thought I would give it a go anyway. So lots of reading done but still lots to do and notes to be made again. Made 1 trade ...
