While looking for Isotonic's oil post, I stumbled across url Man how time passes! Does that mean I'm to blame for you incorporating pin bars into your trading(above was in reference to a post I'd made in the oil thread mentioning pins iirc)? ...

Heyo. Thanks for the compliment Marci Actually I checked real quick, it's the trendline break thread, right? If so, then Isotonic looks more like your twin brother Check out: url I don't trade TL losses in general, I much prefer price action ...

That's a good cue...am I the only one noticing the seemingly complete detachment of the xxxJPY from the surge in stocks in the last 24 hours? Not that I mind...I just found it curious.. Oh, and there was another mule kick from that USDX 75 area. ...

Doh! The irony There is no point in it...I just randomly picked two time periods, one faster, one slower. OF COURSE they will cross when direction changes! Because PRICE will have moved. The whole point I was trying to make is that PRICE will ...

Optimized Trend Trading

No idea how this is different from a crossover. Attaching a local simple JMA crossover I curve fitted to resemble your chart. Just because you found one of 52 weeks that make nice pips doesn't make it an exception to what you said: Ya know? Where ...

Optimized Trend Trading

I am currently wondering about that whole USDX 75 situation, also the EURGBP /// GBPUSD vs EURUSD stuff... I wasn't surprised to see that the PB we got on DJI/S&P got invalidated by a BUOB(bullish outside bar) and that now the futures and ...

Personal rant, personal opinion follows. -- I can't believe people spent 500 posts chasing after someone to get them to say things that are a) basics and b) better and more thoroughly explained and illustrated in the biggest price action thread on ...

The Holy Grail - Found

No, it doesn't. Risk is what risk is. You must and can not assume a trade working out when calculating risk. If you calculate the 50 pips to be 3% then your risk IS 3%, not less. This goes under the assumption that the AH re-entry actually either ...

Jacko's Forex House of Pleasure and Pain

I like the equilibrium idea.(say, I think I've read you write about this before...now that I'm starting to wake up a bit...musta been a while though) Isn't it interesting to see that we create seemingly logical explanations for observed repeatable ...

Nah, you can do that, too, it's just tricky when you reverse the right hand for the "closing" of the 6. Tried it as well. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. I assume I am allowed to stop after drawing the 6 before drawing a new one? But the first few times ...

Yea, (just tried) but I don't last long, it appears the upper leg muscle required to do this isn't exactly highly trained here I realized you need to really focus on the leg/foot, the hand is rather simple to task on "just do a circle" => tons ...

Me! Been having thoughts on this one since the first daily outside bar Also posted that and the monthly outlook over on the J16 site in the GBPUSD discussion thread...it's something I am watching closely..(it's also / was also basically the same ...

I looked, I can't find it. I'd need a keyword for the filename. Keep in mind I have a repository of 3000+ charts by now I have simply snapped a screenshot of my "scraps n pieces" MT4, which is basically 80% identical, plus some new stuff. It has ...

Not sure whether I still have the screenshot, but I still have the profiles like that...and worse! Especially the "just for charting fun" MT4 probably would give people nightmares...but even my main MT4 is cluttered to no end... I have found that ...

Thanks!

Yea..I'm just worried Asia has been re-pumping so hard..cheap retrace bargains or something spooky? I also would have much preferred a more clearly defined uber-rally for 0 reason and steep bars before the pin bar..like this it just feels...wrong.. ...

Old news cesarnc, was known far, far before today's cut announcement..(the downgrade) Definitely wasn't the factor - or rather those who already knew henceforth knew this crush would be coming. Say, like that guy joking about the possible 50bps ...

I got mine, hope everyone else did alright, too. Update to show the prior marked in level touched now - no curve fitting here folks. Just a bit of sense and a pick of scenarios. We also held the 4h temporary TL really well, which funnily enough ...
