Pivot Calculations — MxPips, --As Willem said, they can vary a slight amount, and there shouldn't be any problem with that. Here's how to test your pivot indicator to see if it's accurate enough: Add the high, low, and close of the previous ...

Nadia, --I opened the zip earlier, and it opened the first time. I think it's just one of those things. I tried to download over and over on the previous zip, and I finally got it to download and open. Way to go on your trading! I certainly know ...

Thanks MxPips, --Are you talking about my pivot lines or what I call my price lines? My pivot lines are the dotted ones. My price lines are the thicker orange ones that I draw myself. They're drawn from previous swing highs and lows on daily, 4 ...

The lower high marked by the small trend line has convinced me to stay out for the rest of this session. The 200 sma on the 4 hour chart may reinstate itself as resistance for the time being.

EURUSD — This is the other one I would have taken because of the solid close back above the 1.5554 level and the TC on the MACD.

EURUSD — One trade today, which had to do with a combination of the MACD, a price line, and a feeling that price wanted to retest the 4 hour 200sma at 1.5562. I decided to count the little 2 candle turn around on the MACD as a TC, even though ...

Okay, Willem, but you'll be sorry.... I'll take over! And we'll start taking our trades according to what our pets tell us. If my dog scratches her ear, it'll be a long. If she scratches her side, we'll go short.

EURUSD — Ah, discipline! A little while ago, 16:30 gmt. The speed of the market had moved to the 21 ema, so price action had slowed considerably and was tricky. I was going to post that I had no entries on EURUSD today during my session, and ...

EURUSD — The chart shows a trade I didn't take. The entry short would have been at 13:20gmt, but I was kept out by various considerations, including the move down of already 136 pips and the fact that price on the 4 hour chart had tested the 8 ...

Thanks for these examples, Willem! An interesting item I'm noticing about when a candle breaks through your small support or resistance lines is that it can move very quickly, possibly not giving one time to take a smaller loss, meaning that one has ...

TC vs. CT — Hi attictrader, --You're correct that being below the 89 is one of the bearish signs. Being below the 89 and the 200 would mean that you would like to be able to take a short trade, though one might not be available at the time. ...
