Lessons Learned — Im going to share a personal story to provide an insight that might save someone some money. This month I was up 27% (live account), which is pretty good considering at that point it wasn't even 3 weeks into the month yet. ...

Ive heard this said by many posters here, yet this is completely wrong short-mid term in my humble opinion. Jan 20 USD news is a prime example and one we should all be remembering still. The news triggered a sell off to the 15835 level. This is ...

Thoughts? Retail Sales: Friday, 9:30. A major indicator will also close the week. After a small rise of 0.3% last month, a drop of 0.1% is expected now. This is the last figure before the raise in VAT in January 2011, so it may surprise with a rise ...

IMHO if this move tops 1.5952, the 89 1H SMA, we might be in for a bullish day assuming this isnt just a setup for the European session. I see green across the board right now, EURUSD is above 1.3500 again.

Im pretty sure the Bears and Bulls indicators are party of the default MT4 package. Look under Oscillators or Custom indicators in your list.

Pretty sure at this point the short scalp discussed is done. You should have been able to get out at 10 pips. Current PA suggests another move up.

That TL is about the same point as the 1H 89 SMA recommend in an earlier post. Combined with your suggestion, this would seem to be a critical point and will have blown past the 50 fibo. On another note, this is why i dont scalp. My idea to short ...

Do you guys use the LRC? Ive found it to be very reliable, and if nothing else is a great trend identifier imho.

Im seeing a bunching of MA's on the 15 with stoch in overbought. With the 50 fibo suggested earlier maybe this is prime for a short scalp? However, the 5 isnt bunching... and Stoch is oversold I dont scalp, but in the spirit of sharing ...

I added it to my chart and I see that in the first week of Jan it was all over it, over it, under it... no clear direction. This dip under is like the dips under 2 weeks ago it would seem to me. I suppose for the record I should state my goal of ...

Are you shorting on anything besides the 50 fibo? When I first started trading I tried using the fibo, but found it to be unreliable, so much in fact I dont even put it on my charts.
