Karma, yes its been tough... especially to get bigger runs but I do believe it will get back to some movement soon.

Try a different pair. I have noticed eur/usd is real flat and unpredictable.

Take a look here. You just had your line drawn wrong. Need a closed green below a open of previous green. That forms the zline zone
price comes up above the ema, ENTER!

I got in late...but still going short.

doji

Yeah - I know how to draw it that way and most of the time I see no way to get on the move unless I do it the other way i.e. see an attempt to go long, it fails and they're screwed over, find some way in. If I wait for the short move first then the up bar 9/10 it does not come back above that ema it just goes and I don't get in on it

I don't know what you men by you don't know what I mean :lol: ?

That it was a bullshit move? Well it was news wasn't it? I'd just put a trade on, no stop , gone 'sod it' went to make the evening meal and come back with a profit.Could have easily gone as far the other way.

Or do you mean re what i'd said about lines?

I think there's something fundamentally wrong about how I'm seeing things otherwise I wouldn't be wrong like, 80 % of the time
