Whistlepips replied Apr 4, 2011Thanks. I have coloured candles also. If I understood correctly you mean that the 1 hr candle currently going on turned into a green one in the beginning of this hour. At the moment it seems to be red again. In the 15 min chart the first candle of ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 4, 2011This is really interesting and points right into the heart of my problems with H1 4C BO´s. I´ve burnt my fingers several times with trend turns just after entry. It would be really nice to know if you could tell, what made you hesitate with this one. ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 3, 2011Thanks. Seems to be a good probability there also. I will test them tonight, but have to consider some kind of SL and TP because I´ll have to go to sleep just after open. BTW if anyone is interested to keep track on fundamentals I think FF calendar ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 2, 2011Thanks. It may be so that some of the last four sudden changes, which ended to SL on my previus list of 3 taps results were because of unexpectedly good news from US. Now with the expectation of ECB rate decision, euro is probably continuing to ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 1, 2011EUR/USD — I just did some manual bactkesting with 3 taps from august 2010 to present day in order to improve my future trading with them. Hard job manually! Here is some data. I tried to find all the potential 3 tap setups from 4H chart of ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 1, 2011Just an idea of successful 3 tap going to wrong way. If you took it like this and according to the definition of trends the following low cant be lower than the last one so if you put your SL below the last low, there is rather high probability of ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 1, 2011I´ve thought this so that it doesn´t matter if your original 3 tap is invalid or your timing to enter isn´t exactly right. When 3 tap is formed even though it stays on e.g. a resistance level and doesnt break out immediately it is still more ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 1, 2011I use SL about 80 depending on S/R levels in my 3 taps. According to my (short) experience with them they seem to end into significant profit more often than loss. Also according to my experience they tend to be more profitable if you enter them ...

Whistlepips replied Apr 1, 2011What´s with NZD/USD? I read somewhere that spikes are typical in a turning zone of a trend. It is on the top of it´s weekly channel. Not necessarily a good 3 tap.

Whistlepips replied Apr 1, 2011Thanks. Most of my losses I made with H14C´s so I have to scratch my head a little with them during weekend. 3 taps run nicely though. Perhaps they will suit better for my personality and timetables during working week. 3 taps you can leave aside ...

Whistlepips replied Mar 31, 2011Really good points! Thanks to you all. It is amazing how much one can learn in a short time by socialising with others and externalising ones problems. Anthar I think you´re right that trailing stops will only work well with trending markets.
