Hey bro,

Just wanted to reply to your trade questions. As to your trade, look back to my rules and I specifically said to trade WITH the osc, not against it. Very important. In order to trade against it, you must drop down one time frame and reapply all the rules.

I am attaching a screen shot of what you should have been looking for today. Also, I don't know if you actually use your charts zoomed in that far but I suggest you back out at least one. It gives you a better picture of what is going on.

I may start another thread for my system because it really is different to the Randy Candles and I don't want to get people mixed up. I will post for all if I do.

Thanks for making the effort to explain dude. Really appreciate it.

Just want to make dead sure - when you say trade WITH the oscillator, you simply mean that when I wanna go long, I gotta make sure the osc is ABOVE zero, right?

Plus, yeah I think it would be a wise idea to create a new method for your thread.

 

The sun will sweep away the sky from the current twilight and all tracks will become clear beyond the dawn!

has eur/jpy captured all the flair and big movements as gbp/jpy but with half the spread? do we have a new leader?

 

I like to trade the emini's during the last 1/2 hour.....

My work day begins at 6am mtn time with the EurJpy chart. I spend a few minutes reviewing the charts of the usdjpy, eurusd and the eurjpy starting with the daily, 4 hour, 1 hour down to the 15 and 5 min. I then review the upcoming news events to determine what may have an affect on my trading. Many morning there is a 6:30 report to consider. I never trade the news and wait 5-15 minutes for a trend to develop after the news. I also have a minor bias in my mind about where I think the pair is going based on where it's been etc..

I use a color change red to white-white to red as my alert and then drill down to the indicators to get confirmation. When I enter a trade I know exactly where my stop loss is - usually based on 5 min support and resistance. I also trade 5-8 standard lots so I'm looking for 10 -12 pips once or twice a day and that's it-

Finished~ If I fail to make my goal I will usually look at the Asian open for another whack at it using the same pre-game rituals. Occasionally, I stay up for the GrandDaddy of them all and trade the London open but that is rare.

I'm convinced that trading is about 80 % mental and the other is knowledge and luck. It's a game of averages. Win some lose some-use good money management techniques and pay yourself often.

Vegas is probably developing good skills but lacks 78.99% of the 80%

confidence level needed to be successful.

My chart shows- green vertical lines 6am to 7:30 am- my workday. The red line horizontal shows a short and the green horizontal shows my long. With 4 pips for spread on each trade, I walked away with a net 18 pips today.

That's my 2cents worth and I'm sticking with it.

Good Luck

Nice summary of your trading plan.......gives everyone something to think about.

 

Not at all, as the Dow dropped a 100 points late in the day, the gbpjpy dropped a 100 pips.

I'm using those greenies stochs (major) and the smaller stochs as entry points. do you see it?

Nice work Raver~

Not surprisingly, the 100 day ma (red) is capping the rallies on the eurjpy

The gbpusd is bouncing between the 50ma and the 10ma.

Try plotting a 10, 20 50,89,100,200 sma on a daily chart and observe

I heard BIG money trades using these simple ma, most likely with Robots

I think I should shut the f*ck up and go do something else..sorry for analyzing my charts outloud..maybe it helped a noobie tho
