Starry replied Jan 18, 2013Honestly i dont know
It was just an observation, many times it pauses along the way but still completes the impulse wave. Ill have to experiment. edit: i've noticed mr pip sometimes displaces swing lines once it hits resistance, for example here ...Ratios & Harmonics: a Different Way to Trade

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013Also, i have a question about stoploss placement. If it trades into the 38.2% line and then consolidates into it, wouldn't it be wiser to put the stoploss a few pips below the 38.2 zone instead of at the A point? especially if the ABC is extremely ...

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013Yeah, i saw that the 100 tick chart was much cleaner but the 1 minute gave additional confirmation for the trades on the 100 tick chart, so it would probably be good to have both open! thanks :!) good luck to you!

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013Ok, so if you trade a buy on an ABC at the 38.2% line, you might be trading into the 38.2% retracement of the BC? Couldn't you just move to breakeven when it reached that?

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013mr pip, do you have any rules which allow you to trade a bounce from the 38.2 line after consolidation there plus an ab = cd pattern that dead ends into the resistance? I didn't trade today, but reviewing gbpjpy, there was that situation and i have ...

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013100 tick charts with mbtrading appear to look much better and far closer to mr pips data. 255 tick charts have big blurs when there should be some peaks instead. Good enough for me! image

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013Heres what ive noticed. When you have impulse waves, a strong resistance can change the length of the impulse wave, either shortening or lengthening it. It can also signal the transition to another impulse wave (the previous impulse wave becomes ...

Starry replied Jan 17, 2013I was reading the second harmonic book, and i noticed a failed 1.13 extension (the failed wave) that corresponded with previous resistance on gbpusd 1 minute. Here it is. Marked by the oval. The other two resistance bands were defined by the 61.8 ...

Starry replied Jan 16, 2013I wonder if this is a property of the market when it is about to turn around. Steeper impulse waves, with a smaller slope impulse wave. A smaller slope impulse wave that breaks through prz. A breakthrough of a PRZ zone followed by entry back into ...

I will not give up! I still have my heart set on 1 minute though. So i think i will try to do one minute, and later expand to other currencies to get more opportunities. Yes, i agree trading in real time is much different.Ratios & Harmonics: a Different Way to Trade
