this had been said before ...
if you're trying to make a fresh start and starting off, trade with the recent momo on the higher time frame
look at h4 and can you see that shorts have a higher probabailty of being successful
I dont know if you're trying to emuulate AJ or ES but leave that for now as they are pros and exit when they feel its not going their way

pablo thank you,
your right I was trying to be a aj or es...reading through the lukx thread...everyone says its so easy....
Maybe I need to crawl before I run.
Iposted some 4 hour charts...
Can you mark them up...so I know what im supposed to be looking for?
I take it you trade the Dragon way?

This EU looks good
Lukx's thread is great and I made many boob trades from reading and rereading that. But in the end, the pros there all preached simplicity ... just look for mbar and trade away whether it's a zline or sr level.
I just trade in the direction of the higher time frame and I use 3CC to do that. When I'm clear with the direction, I scalp pips going in that direction. 3CC is the best thing since sliced bread in my books

Here's my take on the same thing, it may or may not help
One questinon I'd love to ask Dragon is:
how long do you consider hourly momentum away from a level to be valid? If it was some time ago I look for fresh momentum from the level before entering (safer but you often miss moves that just hit the level and fly).
Here's the charts anyway. I could guess you'd say I was trading 'reverting to the mean' most of the time i.e. trading a range. Often I will go to the bigger chart to find the range. Of course it looks like trends on the smaller chart. Trading with candle colour will keep you out of a lot of trouble (although it didn't help me yesterday on the Swiss pairs as I did a very good job of picking the wrong levels (too soon) to go long and got my ass handed to me )
