Hi Adi. I agree to a point but I still find size to be a very important factor, even with BU/BEOBS. There are still many things to consider when analyzing them. for example. How many bars does it engulf? Did the bar close strongly above/below that ...

Yeah I understand Ace, thanks

james16 Chart Thread

Excellent videos Ace, Really enjoying them Would this be one of your areas of interest? Curious to see if I'm getting it right Jonny

james16 Chart Thread

Yeah that one didn't quite close within the prior bar, I think it's important for the validity of the bar

james16 Chart Thread

A big pinbar with divergance but thats about it, Would need a BRN or some additional confluence to make it tradeable in my book

Glad to finally see the back of August, It's been a lethal month in many ways, very choppy and no room for error otherwise you get punished (either good or bad for learning depending on how you view it ) Only 2 trades for me, One Win and one loser ...

Hey PP There are many traders who advocate the use of volume with their trading, even in Forex, There are many ways in which it can be used as an added piece of information when trying to interpret price bars. (For example an up bar with lower ...

This was on my radar but I passed on it as the bar didn't seem that big, wanted a lower low. I see it ran nicely

Just to clarify I am in no way recommending them as a broker, I don't have any money with them. Literally just using their charts as a stock screener, as it's free and more user friendly than many of the Java/Web screeners out there Jonny

That's strange.. Not sure the reason, but it's probably quicker to just re-create the template on your laptop rather than try to find out why

If you copy your experts and templates folders you should be ok for example ; Program Files/FxPro/Experts and Program Files /FxPro /Templates

Hey Danny, I'm already in this one, after an engulfing bar on the H6 chart. Loved the strong close above all those previous highs, and the 1.75 of course

james16 Chart Thread

Yeah I found I was taking many acceptable setups and just about breaking even over the long run Now focusing on the exceptional setups and doing much better

Hi PB, Just to clarify, When I say BRN I meant the 500 pip increments, so for USD/CAD the closest BRN's are 1.0000, 1.0500 and 1.1000 1.0600 is significant of course, but lately I've been extra picky and mainly taken trades around the "BRN's" Jonny

james16 Chart Thread

Wish this was straddling a BRN

james16 Chart Thread

Understood

Many traders deal with this by having several accounts. One for their "real" trading (A+ setups and so on) And a second for playing around with other methods, or the same method with different entry requirements. This satisfies the "need to be in" ...
