The iteration used the fib map for entry in a way that doesn't jibe even a little bit with mofu. Short entry not even triggered yet where if one was actually trading pharmors map using that method to get in short he would have entered some time ago ...

Stick around. These exercises are pretty priceless if you are looking to learn about swing trading and FA. Keep doing them and reading comments from the guys/girls here on the thread. You don't have to trade them live to learn. What do you have to ...

Sounds like good perspective you got going there. Big losses sting. But gotta feel good to cut that chain off your ankle. You'll be riding high again soon. I tripled my account on brexit day only to piddle most all of it away this summer on shit ...

I think Fisher is right. Probably best to let sisse shine some light on how he's looking at these entries tomorrow. But whether you're on the buy side or the sell side that's all that matters for the exercise. This was sisse on Friday: "Once we ...

Welcome back. Looking forward to more of your charts and analysis.

The Really Useless Thread

Well, more like I want to help sisse track the entries and progress and I think I understand where they are/will be with the exeption of the fib one. Given this from the iteration: The triggers: "FIBS Longs -> First retrace to 50% area (meaning ...

The Really Useless Thread

Um....no I didnt forget but thanks. The PA entry is clear. The MACD indi entry is clear. The fib entry isnt. That's because the fib entry hasn't been defined yet. So I'm trying to help define it. I'm ok with never defining it and going with the ...

So assuming we are going with the (very nice looking) bear fib map that Pharmor drew up there, and at the risk of appearing too focused on the exact fib entry point (I swear I just want to understand the iteration) am I right in thinking the fib ...

The Really Useless Thread

Be happy to help any way I can. On the fibs seems you almost need two? In the sense that which way you pull that range is in itself a call on direction? Over complicating it prolly. (I guess those are the answers fibonacci don't give you but mofu ...

But I must say, after recently mentioning how overwhelming it's becoming to track the data in these iterations, you just bit off a pretty big one with this. I know all here like me appreciate the effort you put in.

The Really Useless Thread

It doesn't matter where !!!! Ok. I get you on that. Lets say for argument you thought we may go up from here by 100 pips give or take to test the top of range before heading back down. The entry and stop would determine completely your call of long ...

I don't know. I honestly don't know where I'm entering in this iteration. Can't figure it out. Pick one:fib, short. Where's the entry? at 38.2% retrace with stops at mid?

The Really Useless Thread

Not very sure I get where the stops and entry(s) will be on this one. I'll say short for me before the table closes and read a little further here.

Cool. Marks the first thing I got right all month

Not using any of these for a long while honestly. Been glancing at keltner channels but not specifically for entries. I guess if I had to pick from the list you can color me a Fib man. (but I promise not to post any pics of spiral seashells or tree ...

The Really Useless Thread

Right. No preach from me either (obviously not in a position to do that). I do it like this: figure out my entry and stop, adjust position size so that the risked pips equal the percentage of capital I am comfortable with risking on the trade. That ...

I see what you mean. Thanks

What about risk %? Don't positions need to be too small to be interesting when stops are wide enough for 200 dd? (Unless of course one is either using a massive trading account or is willing to risk far more than the <2% per trade most see as a ...
