Man I am always on the wrong side..
Yea seems to be one of those bitter sweet deals..Happy you knew which way it was going but mad that it stopped you out just before..Well I will let you get back to work...Just thought I would see if I was on the same page in my thinking..Thanks again for all the explaining you do on here..Trust me it helps..
Will keep watching to see then..Actually had a short order to trigger last night at 1.0530 and triggered but forgot to re-set my stop loss so it stopped me out before it started coming down..Was pretty confident it was going to hit that area but screwed up on the stop loss thing..
Looking back at the chart I posted if the legs are equal it actually puts it at about 1.0660..Pretty close to your target..I just need to learn to look at things a little closer and longer..
Nevermind I found your post with the 4 hour chart a few days ago and see..I thought I had read somewhere that you were looking for 1.06 - 1.07 area..Guess I will take my 20 pips that I shorted earlier and see which way it goes..
Ok sounds good thanks..
Can you post a chart showing why the 1.07 area..
I just downloaded the first one I found on yahoo search..Just figured they were all the same..
I had one on top of the other and in places mine was going up and yours was going down or vice versa..
Got the TDI loaded finally..It's not much different but it is different..Will watch it for awhile tonight and see..Thanks
That's kind of what i figured was to discourage trades but wasn't sure..
Why do the spreads go so far apart at news time..
Got it Pennies..Thanks
No problem..Off work today so I thought i would sit and watch for awhile..Try to learn..
Sent you an e-mail
Pennies what is your tdi settings..Mine doesn't quite match
Good deal..Sounds like we are both learning..
That one was pretty obvious even for me..LOL
Didn't even think about the TDI..I just saw the 5 waves down and then consolidation and entered on the green candle..It worked though this time..
Evening pennies..I used your 5 waves down price action earlier..Made about 16 pips..
AVARICIA I opened up an account through OANDA with 300.00 just to get started..No problems at all..
Man you pegged it right on the money..I tried to many different things after I thought my rules had failed..I went back to them and have been very strict on myself and have done better..Another thing I noticed about myself was I thought I always needed to be in a trade..Had to learn that one the hard way.. I only have in the evenings until about 11:00 or so to try and trade some so I don't catch alot of the moves..To scared and not enough confidence to leave anything open over night or while at work..
I did manage about 14 pips earlier so I guess thats good..Since I was on a losing streak I just started using 500 lots to try and gain some confidence back..I have caught myself breaking my rules here and there..Goes back to trying to squeeze a few more pips out of the trade instead of letting everything develop..
Yea I get lost looking at some of his charts..To much stuff on there for me to understand and not knowing enough about it yet..I'll quit typing so you can go to sleep..
Yea I kind of got that impression of simple when I read one of his posts saying he couldn't remember the last time he had a losing trade..That's pretty impressive..
Yea I think that's my problem is holding out..Then it seems to turn the other way ..Seems like it takes forever for the trade to go my way but it can go against me extremely fast..Its all a learning experience and I know it takes time..I try and read all the posts on here and study the charts everyone puts up..And ask questions of course..
Man ya'll make it sound so easy..I've got alot to learn..
Git, where you at in Texas?
So now that the bollies are turning down on the 30 thats a good sign to stay in..
Pennies which time frame do you trade off of the most..
WooHoo a positive trade..
Seems like a pretty simple strategy..Will have to watch for that more closely..
Man that would be nice to retire at an early age..Guess I just need to sit back and read and learn some more..
On your bollie TDI scalp trade--is it getting close on AU right now..If it would ever fall below the middle bollie would that be an entry..
Seems like I was doing good in my practice account..Went live with small lots and just can't seem to get anything right..So I am back to practicing again..
Maybe one of these days I will figure this out..Sure hadn't so far..lol
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!!
I have mine set at 1.004 just to try and get some pips and confidence back..Back to work until 4:30..Good luck..
Hopefully it won't go to 1.0120..I already went short based on my macd setting I have been using..
