GBP/CAD long (1hr) — ...just watching this atm, i like the last 1hr bullish candle and the fib confluence. Would be another great R:R trade if it materialises. I'm waiting for more confirmation above the 50 psych level before entering. (NB: i ...

...the missing ingredient for that setup candle was strength of bullish momentum. All the other retracements toward the MA were kick started back into the prevailing trend with much better bullish candles and momentum, circled on your chart.

I'd say it's one of the weaker trending options, it wouldn't make my list at the moment...that's not to say it won't take off like a rocket! Just personal preference given the info the chart gives now.

Would you mind posting your chart for this one....we might be able to learn something from that particular setup bar/candle. As an exaggerated example, assuming this EUR/AUD long setup candle had triggered a long, why wouldn't it have been a good ...

EU short — Many thanks 60minuteman for bringing this strat to our attention. I'm testing it at the moment on the hrly using a basic fib to catch the higher probability outside candle setups....move to b/e at 1:1 and then all off at the 38.2 ...

Indeed. In fact, the more i look at this, the more i find the indicators detract from what many of us (newbies) should really be focusing on. Next week, i'll strip the indies away and just observe the trend and price action around the pivots.

...i've also misinterpreted the slope rule. So, in the current EU 15min example, Rule 1: Bearish Trend - SHORTS only Rule 2: Waiting for price to cross the upper TMA band Rule 3: Enter short when TMA Slope prints falling slope values

Yes, this is correct as i understand the rules, but i get the feeling we will never see the TMA slope in the 'right' direction for a green or red setup because of the repaint issue? TMA appears to follow the direction of price at the right edge of ...

Here's a current screenshot of 15min EU which indicates a grey buy. According to the definition you posted last night, a grey buy should have a ranging slope...but clearly the slope is trending atm?..

Grey buy on EU now for example (across MTFs); according to definition TMA should be ranging, clearly it isn't..perhaps Crodzilla could shed some light on it..

It's interesting to read thoughts on how tweaks to Kelvin's ideas might suit individual preferences, afterall this is Kelvin's preferred style and isn't for everyone. In my experience, it's easy to make what we think are small tweaks to a method ...

As a trade progresses I use the 15min to look out for reversals (typically 123s), but not just any old reversal. If i see a reversal forming at a strong demand/supply level, regardless of pip count at that stage, i'll move the stoploss to 10 pips ...

If it were me and i saw price ranging around a 2nd attempt on the same IB, i'd pass on it. If however, the 1st IB stoploss was taken out on a retrace to support/resistance, which then gets rejected and price heads once again to the IB breakout, i'd ...
