jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016Just guessing but I think prices meet the lower band at support (the red line) where it was tested twice earlier. the sells won't bring in much net gain but I should be able to keep the gain from the buy.

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016Entered a fourth short.. The prices have not closed outside then inside the band but it has been a good run up. There is a possibility it will not breakout and I need the fourth short to offset the loss that will be the 1st short. If it does break ...

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016The buy stopped out at the trailing stop 200 sma. 99 pips. took 6.5 hours. The three sells are open and waiting for the reverse to the opposite band.. Watching different sma's. 400, 600, and 800 as possible exits since sometimes there will be a ...

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016Good signal for the second sell. A decent amount of distance from the first sell. There wasn't a run up outside the bands, but there was a decent run up from the recent consolidation. The buy is still open, almost stopped out at the 200 but didn't. ...

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016This signal is not strong enough. The next signal to sell should be after a break out. if this is the top the trades both buy and sell should be profitable. To sell here could cause a problem if the trend resumes in a strong way.

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016I'll have to get up around 1:30 to be able to trade this. For now I think I have 15 minutes or so that I can clean up.

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016Okay. There's the signal for sell. So there is a buy and sell open. Have to be careful I make sure I am trading the right account. US regulators won;t allow hedging. Almost opened the sell in the same account with the buy which would have closed the ...

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016Could be a really great trade... The stop for the buy following the 200 is just above open. So no possibility of loss only a matter of how much gain.. And after almost 2 hours of trending still no signal for a short. So it is a strong trend. I hope ...

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016with a close inside the band.. sell. almost but not. which is great... the buy is going deeper into profit. the stop trailing the 200 is getting smaller and the op for going short is getting better the higher it moves.

jiva34 replied Dec 5, 2016Up at 2. So got that far... And in with a buy. If prices came inside the band it would have been a definite signal.. But a close outside is acceptable.. The main thing is it the first cross of the band.

jiva34 replied Dec 4, 2016Don't take the first signal. Like here.. there was a close below the lower band and then a close above the lower band. That is a buy signal. But it is the first buy signal. Sell here. and use the 200 sma as trailing stop. Wait for a decent move in a ...

jiva34 replied Dec 4, 2016Yes. thanks. I am open to seeing how to maximize these signals. Profit is only realizable when risk is managed. If I could see how to manage the risk in trading away from the mean, catching those long runs I would do it. What I am learning seems to ...

jiva34 replied Dec 3, 2016In a very strong trend the prices will go to opposite band but not until after a long consolidation which tightens the bands. Usually there is a sudden dip or two that doesn't quite go to the opposite band. That is where the exit is for situations ...

jiva34 replied Dec 3, 2016Good this is what I wanted. To see what a bad trade looks like. The trade from hell. the second position should not have been taken. for -42 it was too close to the opening position. that would have reduced the loss from -62 to -20.. tolerable. When ...

jiva34 replied Dec 3, 2016Can exit when prices get close to band. This happens a lot. Almost gets to the band than falls back and menders for hours until it finally does reach the band, But the band in the meantime has tightened. So that first big pop to almost the band is ...

jiva34 replied Dec 3, 2016This thing is incredible. One thing is when the first signal is there to enter, but if there should be another signal right near it don't take it. Wait for a bit of a run first. Also if there had been a big run and the bands are starting to narrow ...
