Anyone in/still in the BEOB trade on the EURUSD from yesterday (1 PM EST)? It broke by just enough to trigger and has since basically retraced and stayed in the bottom half o the BEOB. I did see the highs at 1.4150 level, and it has come down to ...

What? No way, he was always very helpful, and when I finally caught up here, I loved to browse through his thread.

Thank you Razor, I had my TP just above that level at 131.70. It got to 131.52 on my feed.

I disagree, but I appreciate your kind words and the time you devoted to me to type them. The reason I disagree, is I read this thread nonstop. Most all anyone posts are their winners. A few weeks ago, Rac posted a loss, and it was awesome. Even ...

Thank you dmc... "Something that Jaroo taught me is the bar break stop, whcih would still keep you in this trade with reduced risk. After the bar breaks put your stop behind the bar that breaks it, that way if it is not a momentum setup you will be ...

R:R ratio. If I kept the stop loss about where I had it, I would end with a 1:1 return. If I put the stop loss below the bar, my return would be about 1:2. If I trade with 1:2, my win rate would have to be VERY high to make a profit. With that said, ...

EURJPY — Damn, took a loss on a 4H pin bar on the EURJPY. I have been very picky with my entries and working on R:R Money management. I believe this was a good trade. I put the stop loss about 15 pips below the left eye and played the break. ...

Happy 4th of July to everyone! Thank you to Jim and all the regulars who are so helpful and so insightful. To the guys wanting to make it to the USA, best of luck. Until recently, did I fully realize how lucky I was to live here. Sadly, what once ...

I don't want to get off target, but my solution has been... "If you rely on welfare, you don't vote." Simple and easy. If you don't even pay taxes, how can you tell the govt. how to spend other people's money?

Happy birthday! — I don't post much, but I am lurking here all the time, making sure to reach each new post. I have been doing some back testing, and noticed on the EURUSD, the most likely 4H P/A set-ups occur on the bars that close at 6AM and ...

I woke up and saw some GREAT Counter Trend trades on the 4H charts (GMT +1). GREAT counter trend trades on the EU, GU, EJ, UCAD, AUDUSD, and NZDUSD. I passed on all of them, due to the fact they are counter trend. But I believe I learned a lesson. ...

I analyzed the GBPCHF, and I agree with Josh's analysis. It appears like an inside bar against a strong S/R line, and I am taking on the probability that with this second touch (no MACD divergence) and read on Clockwork's thread the Swiss Bank has ...

This USDCAD pin reminds me of a daily pin from last August on the EURUSD. I think every poster on the board took the pin, including James16 himself. A few got out with a small loose, most of us took the full lose, and I think even James16 took a ...

Ryan, great to see you stop by! Jankone created a thread in your honor based on your 5 minute info you were kind enough to share with us here. Hope you are doing good!

Mike (and anyone else who wants to answer), Did you take the EURAUD trade? I am wondering if I am being too picky. The EURAUD trade gave a two day pin bar, off what looked like a strong PPZ (1.7500), a double bottom with MACD (standard settings) ...

I moved my stop loss up to .7660. I hit TP, BARELY at .7555 (I think the low was .7552). I will just more than break even on this trade, but I did make a small profit, no complaints.

james16 Chart Thread

I was stopped out on this trade. I didn't set my stop above the pin bar, instead I set it above the left eye. If it gives another opportunity to enter and go short, I will do so. This pair moved so hard in the first 15 minutes of the new day (6 PM ...

Jim, was just wondering about how you traded today. I went long on the EURAUD and my trade never really got close. Did you take the EURGPB or GBPCHF trades? I passed on them, I felt the charts were too congested.

james16 Chart Thread

My daily chart closes in 10 minutes. I do not see any trades on the daily charts. Am I over looking one (or more) potential trades? I see the EURGPB looks decent. That is about it. The other trades that were shaping up appeared to be "disformed" ...
