Thats what I thought... hmmm. Ok, back to the drawing board for me I guess.

So this morning I got up at the london open for the first time, thinking I was going to put in a trade and go back to bed for a bit... Then I ran into a problem that if I would done some simple addition before I went to bed, I wouldn't have ran ...

Thanks for the answer. I'm still not sure I understand completely, but at this point in the evening I think I'll just call it a night and look for another setup tomorrow.

Trading Made Simple

I noticed when the first candle closed, the lines had not crossed yet, then when the next candle opened it showed that they crossed. So that makes me wonder, do you take the trade at the beginning of the candle or wait until tomorrow when the candle ...

Yeah, thats why I'm strongly considering going to the 4 hr charts. I'll have to force myself to get up at 2am, but if I can get back to bed within 1/2 hour or so it should be alright.

eelfranz, got some questions for ya... When you trade off the 4 hour charts, how much time do you spend in front of your computer monitoring your trades? Do you use a trailing stop once in profit? I wondering, because I would like to use 4 hour ...

Just curious if anybody is seeing any setups this evening on the daily charts?

Trading Made Simple

I took the same trade yesterday evening... Its not looking good so far, down 60 pips (thank god this is a demo acct I'm using lol). But I'm keeping it open to see if it rebounds or not... Besides, the TDI hasn't given an exit signal yet.

Trading Made Simple

Yeah, I hear ya. Since its a demo acct, I'm not sweating it at all. I wish I could force myself to wake up in the middle of the night to trade London open, but then I'd be a wreck at work the next day. So the 1 and 4 hour charts are not really an ...

Trading Made Simple

I'm putting up 2 daily time frame trades I put in today on demo. One on eur/jpy and the other on usd/jpy. So far the usd/jpy trade is not doing good so far, hopefully it will rebound. Any input into what I may or may not be doing right would be ...

Like what I see in this thread. One question I had is what is the point of the 5 SMA? Do we only take short trades on the downside of the SMA, and long trades on the upside? Or is simply for determining the trend??? Thanks for clearing this up for ...

Trading Made Simple

Yeah, I'm not seeing any either. Thought at first it was probably my computer, but now that other people are having the problem.............

Very Nice!

This System Has Teeth

Correct me if I'm wrong (and believe me, there is a good chance I'm wrong)... But on this chart, the Stoch doesn't go under 40 until 4 or 5 candles after the candle you are mentioning. It doesn't look like a trade would trigger after the trigger ...

Nice thread! I too work the 9 to 5... Well, technically 7 to 3:30, but the markets are pretty much dead by then anyways, so lets just say 9 to 5. I primarily trade eur/usd and use MACD to place most of my trades, which can run on for some time. ...

Trading For Those With a 9-5 Job

If you are trading daily charts, what is your idea of a tight stop loss? Just curious. IMO, you can't use like a 20 pip sl, because it could easily be taken out in one crazy move and then take off down the hill. I mean, to each their own. If someone ...
