Dopey replied Feb 19, 2008Ok, I've gotten a handful of pm's about my posts on this thread. Most have been positive in nature, but I got a couple that questioned whether or not I really trade this stuff. As a rule, I don't give a rat's ass about anyone's opinion, however, ...

Dopey replied Feb 19, 2008I went to the 15 min chart and found the price riding the LML. Once it made the second test I bought at market. It went below the LML then closed just above it. I bought at market at 4664 with my target as the Daily ML at 4730. My stop went below ...

Dopey replied Feb 19, 2008Hey Zones, Here's a trade I took today. It was a very simple set up. First the Daily chart. I thought yesterday would reach the ML. When it made a 38% retracement (which I missed because I was out playing with my oldest son) yesterday, I was very ...

Dopey replied Feb 18, 2008Hey, I can't help with the code, but a solution to problem #2 is to run vHands to get a look at past data with this indicator. Go see Blueruby's thread on vHands.
Love this indicator - Need help with few improvements

Dopey replied Feb 15, 2008Keep an eye on the retest of that long term PF. It's slowly working it's way down.

Dopey replied Feb 15, 2008Don't beat yourself up too much. It doesn't get you anywhere. And you can't watch the market all the time, so you're always going to miss trades. It's life.

Dopey replied Feb 15, 2008It depends on your connection quality. I can always get on when I'm home but have had difficulties at times when using my laptop in various places.
Oanda login issues anyone?

Dopey replied Feb 14, 2008Btw, now that that the long-term PF has been broken and price right now is at 9682, look for a retest of the UML. If it tests it 2-3 times and holds, it's a long. I know you're short and the test would be around 9634-9654, but that UML is a great ...

Dopey replied Feb 14, 2008Now here's the hourly chart with the same PF and Fibs. Remember what I said about the chart Zack had taken and how if you get strong movement towards the ML and if it comes back and bounces on a Fib then it's still good. But if it heads straight ...

Dopey replied Feb 14, 2008Hey Zones, First, here's a chart of the GBP Daily to see the long-term PF. In Andrew's original work, he spoke of counting pivots. He found that once you see 5 pivots, then you start looking for a trend change. This is NOT to be confused with Elliot ...

Dopey replied Feb 13, 2008Zones, A lot of times the 3rd pivot is a spike formation as the one shown. It means you're not going to find a nice entry where it tests the line, instead price just takes off away from the pivot. It makes for some interesting trading if you think ...

Dopey replied Feb 12, 2008It's one thing for price to repeatedly test a line and to pick one of the tests and enter. It's another thing for price to test the line, then move significantly away from it and NOT reach the ML. Once it comes back to the starting line, you're ...

Dopey replied Feb 12, 2008Zack, Your thinking was spot on. I suggest you move to the 15 min though for a better look at the entries. Look at the chart below. We see price come back up to test the UML and it's rejected hard. It tries again, and this is where you go short ...

Dopey replied Feb 12, 2008Ok, here's the follow up to the short trade from yesterday. I'm GMT +4 btw. When I went to bed I wasn't able to move my stop from BE because there wasn't a good congestion to hide it over. I needed price to close below 4481 for that to happen and it ...

Dopey replied Feb 12, 2008Zones, Separation is very important also for touches. Any touch that bounces hard is showing good S/R. It's also important for stop moving. Once you get good separation from a congested area you can feel more secure in moving your stop to the ...

Dopey replied Feb 11, 2008Now the 15 min. You should know of the symmetry not only of the PFs themselves, but also all the other things, such as the MLHs, SHs, WLs, MMLs, etc. This shows up here with the second touch missing by two pips and the third following suit. And yes, ...

Dopey replied Feb 11, 2008Here's another three touch on the Eur today. First the hourly. Notice where the retracement stopped.

Dopey replied Feb 11, 2008I'm sure there are some guys that could argue this point very well that intuition is the most crucial part of trading. I suspect it's a huge part of successful trading. I don't want to get into it here, but intuition is nothing mysterious. Trusting ...
