Donkey replied Dec 21, 2010Hey tbb2. I think what others are referencing is not the amount of pips you have at risk, rather the percent of account. What percentage of account does the 50 pips represeent? Is it 1% or 5%? If it is 5 you may need to take a look at your money ...

Donkey replied Dec 18, 2010Looks like he used a period converter for a 7H TF maybe?

Donkey replied Dec 18, 2010Here's my perspective on AU at the moment. Monthly chart shows that Oct, Nov, and so far Dec were stopped in their tracks at BRN 9500. I'm pretty much going to have to have a pretty strong close on daily below 9500 to short in that area. On daily ...

Donkey replied Dec 15, 2010That's an issue I'm currently working through. Now that you're out of the trade. Take a few exit scenarios and track them. And do it with all your trades. I've been meaning to do that as well, just haven't had time. I have time off from work over ...

Donkey replied Dec 15, 2010I've got the FTA on your post count at BRN 25,000. The bulls are in control and I don't think I'll need a stop loss.

Donkey replied Dec 14, 2010This is a great post. I'm currently reading Van Tharp, Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom, and he places a lot of (if not most) interest on exits. All you have to do is look at charts and this is everywhere. A strong exit strategy can turn a poor ...

Donkey replied Dec 13, 2010Hi jarroo. Could you share your stop progression on this trade? I demo'd and got my stop knicked out on the Sunday open by a few pips for a -0.26R. I think I'm getting better at identifying entries, but seem to be having some trouble managing once ...

Donkey replied Dec 10, 2010Here's how I see the fibs. Main fib is light blue. I think we still have to consider the extremes on the monthly. Secondary of the current swing points is in yellow. From high in July 09 to low in May 10.

Donkey replied Dec 8, 2010I was watching this one too PB. Looks like price plowed through the BRN today. Now we can wait for previous resistance to become support.

Donkey replied Dec 8, 2010Here's my 2 cents. I think you guys are really all looking at the same major ppz zone but different minor ones within it.. There is a good bit of consolidation around 8500 and this is one of those areas where I don't think you're going to see a well ...

Donkey replied Dec 7, 2010Hi PB. This is how I see EU. On my daily feed we have a very bearish closing I4B (really 6 or 7) off of a RN with some confluence. I prefer to pull my main fib from the more major swing high, but that's pretty subjective. The bearish look to the IB ...

Donkey replied Dec 4, 2010That's what I "try" to do. I'm still working on my style and a proper set of rules, but one thing I want to do is stay with the trend as much as I can and trade the pullbacks. I still get trigger happy, but pull the trigger much less frequently. As ...

Donkey replied Dec 3, 2010Keeping it simple is best. I'm probably going to post way too many charts in a row, but I've been watching EG and that weekly bar form. Sometimes I think it's good just to look at the peaks and troughs on a line chart, identify the trend, and decide ...

Donkey replied Nov 23, 2010Hi Millions. Sounds like you are off to a great start with a well-defined entry and exit. A couple of things you could do is demo a couple of different exit methods along side your current exit at FTA. I haven't tried it but a lot of folks seem to ...
