DanUK replied Jul 6, 2010Hi Coolshades, Yes I believe so! It's too early to say that the trend has changed but technically speaking the old trend has ended and I think there are some good signs that things could head up. As you know I have a long trade on GU and I am ...

DanUK replied Jul 6, 2010Hi guys, No trades for me today. I did see this one setup that I considered... EU selling climax followed by a move back up... could have been a buy for a very nice profit but I didn't take it because it didn't actually push down into R1 which I ...

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Hi, That's ok - I am mainly posting in this thread and just using the journal for results (although I haven't posted them yet... I am going to post my six month results later on this week on my journal). Regarding trendlines... I was actually hoping ...

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Question? — Hi guys, In the spirit of sharing and learning I thought we might have a little discussion about trendlines. How do you draw your trendlines? Do you use a certain number of hits? A certain type of candle to draw from? Is time a ...

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Hello and welcome! Look forward to your analysis. I have looked into using COT data in the past and it seems to be quite good. I'm not much of a fundamental trader but would be happy to hear more about your "macro fundamentals" approach. Regards, ...

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Hi Coolshades, No I didn't. Reason being that it was before London open. Good trade if anyone took it though! Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Hi bez, Did you take the trade? If so, did it work out for you? On my feed S2 is 1.51099 so there was no trade for me. Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Hi, Well it's an addition really. When I started to do this type of trading it was based on Acumen's Pivots/Trendlines etc thread - I was looking at trading candlestick patterns off of pivot levels, round numbers, intraday trendlines and fib ...

DanUK replied Jul 5, 2010Hi Pip, It's quite a basic system really... I am looking for price action (pin bars, engulfing bars etc) and/or VSA type setups at intraday levels (pivots, round numbers etc). I use "FXI Pivots" indicator which you should be able to download from ...

Sorry... but I loved your first question; it's ok though - I have a disturbing answer for you! There is no one size fits all answer here. Some people use fundamentals or COT data to qualify a trend. Personally I use a combination of technical ...Trend Trading Chart Thread

DanUK replied Jul 2, 2010Quick FYI... as it's NFP day today I would not recommend any intraday trading, so I am done for the week. A good start to the journal... first week had four trades, one breakeven and three winners for about 12% gain. Hopefully my luck will continue ...

DanUK replied Jul 2, 2010Hi Supermatt, In the past I have looked at mid point levels but I've never really traded them... like you said - on a day when the previous day had a big move they might be worth looking at... I shall look into this further! Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jul 1, 2010Good, glad to hear you are not another salesmen. Fair enough if you don't want to teach people to trade but perhaps you could just answer this question... I would assume that Wisdomfx and your own "levels" are known by others as support and ...

DanUK replied Jul 1, 2010There was also a very nice looking pin on G/U at around the same sort of time but I passed on that too as it wasn't actually piercing a pivot level or round number... it could have worked out for a 1:1 trade though if anyone did take it. Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jul 1, 2010Hi bez, I spotted that too and I did in fact place an order below that pin bar but it didn't get picked up so I deleted it... luckily! Ideally I want the next bar to break the pin for an entry and if it doesn't do it on the second bar at worst I ...
