Phx62 replied Jun 20, 2013That was a PRCP and that candle also set the high of the London session....all trades from there would be short trades (which you did). Your entry should have been at the red line on your chart...once the red candle broke below the last blue candle, ...

Phx62 replied Jun 20, 2013Two trades this morning, both at London Open on the EJ H1 and the AU H1. Both are continuation trades from yesterdays big FOMC moves, entered on a break of the previous candle. Done for the day. image image

Phx62 replied Jun 19, 2013No indicator would work on the move that was made today. Normally, if I scalp M5 (which is usually only following news), the stochastic can confirm an entry and does not lag as far behind at the TDI.

Phx62 replied Jun 18, 2013I, for one will be very careful about entering any trades before the FOMC releases tomorrow.....I expect the market to be fairly quiet until then.

Phx62 replied Jun 18, 2013Not always but the MBL does sometimes show a trend direction. I find that I have better success when the red and green are above the MBL for longs and below it on short trades......I also use the 50 line in much the same way. In the case of the AU ...

Phx62 replied Jun 18, 2013smarco, I enter every trade manually...I don't do pending orders. I also monitor every trade until it reaches at least 21 pips in profit. At that point, my EA moves the stop to BE and sometimes I continue to monitor and others I go back to bed or do ...

Phx62 replied Jun 17, 2013You described it....no momentum and ranging markets.......probably won't see much price movement until the G8 meetings and the US Federal Reserve meetings produce some movement this week.

Phx62 replied Jun 17, 2013When the ADR has been up during the previous week on JPY or AU pairs and there is little pending news, I have found that many times price will trend following market open after the weekend. Nothing more than that.

Phx62 replied Jun 17, 2013Took a couple of EJ trades following the market open because of the big ADR's from last week. Both trades entered with a 40TP & 40SL because it was the Asian session. Also took one AU trade that just completed...based on the break below the session ...

Phx62 replied Jun 13, 2013I actually had the same thoughts but because the London session had been so indecisive on direction (bears and bulls in a battle) and the TDI cross moved green over red and yellow, I took a chance, expecting 20 or 30 pips at least but price just ...
