[quote=MktScape;3738595] Exactly, I like to watch the PA approach the "Area of Confluence" - if too fast, its an opportunity that I will pass by. I don't want the PA to rush onto these levels, it creates another element of risk. I found that most of ...

I agree on the speedy PA towards that S/R level - I like the PA to be speeding in the direction of the trend and the corrections/retraces to be slower... No point in risking against speedy PA - hence my limit order "constraint", if I cannot see the ...

Yes MT4, I dont know maybe there is a faster way. I just put the chart to manual scroll, go back 1 month or so and start moving the chart bar by bar (click mouse and slowly move mouse to left, then bars start rolling in) to the left of my screen and ...

Hi Mashwedy, definitely agree - I find the 5min charts a bit of a pshyc game too. I trade longer TF's, i.e Day/4hr and 4hr/1hr (always with the D/W trend) - sometimes I will enter either of the said combinations off a 15min TF if I can see a really ...
