Nice trade DC =D>

Something for you to consider:

'3' means that your size is divisible, or nearly divisible, by 3:
The loss of space is: -1/4, -1/5, -1/6, repeat.

3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 48, ... (3 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 4, ...)

2.40, 3.20, 4.00, 4.80, 6.40, 8.00, 9.60, ...

1) Your brain will ask you if you want to wait for more pips
2) you think "yes"
3) you click the sell button
4) repeat.

...but doubling is the fastest most ballsy way to do it :D

I have never really payed to much attention to 123's. Anything wrong in your eyes with this?

DC waits for a trend-line break (2) before marking #3.

When his trend-lines are steep they are also usually shifted to the right, away from the chart.

Joe Ross would love your 1-2-3, but classically one would wait for a wider pattern.

You are going to have to wait for DC's answer :wink:
