Sometimes i try to go with H1 and D1, but the combination is very difficult to catch. Started off with $500, went till $550 but then on a loose streak. and came back to $260.

Initially I wasn't paying attention to Stop loss and because of that fact I had some big losses compared to these small pips gains. Need to reconsider my trading.

2009.05.30 RULE OF THUMB: DO NOT REVERSE ON BREAKOUT CANDLES

:idea: TRO :idea: wrote:The pirates were discussing trading after the market closed. One topic was trading reversals. The general consensus was NOT to enter a reversal on a breakout candle. It's better to let the candle close and then wait to see if price is reversing.

In the first example, you can see price...

Although I agree with you and also need to learn more about the characteristics of this "rule of thumb" BUT
TRO doesn't mention it and also he says if anything is not mentioned it doesn't matter.

Looks like to follow the strictest interpretation of the rules then, you have to learn to grab your quick pips. Discipline, a quick eye and quick fingers it seems...

I hope I am being of some help.

I also had a problem with the quick eye and fingers. If you do a search for

multi purpose trade management ea

google should point you towards a handy little tool which has saved me a few quick pips. It can be set for break even, trailing stops, step up stops and a host of other features I still haven't explored yet.

Hope someone finds this useful.

1) Price within 20 pips of the daily low - that is OPPORTUNITY

Entry at low + 20 pips ( 1.0392 ), gave an opportunity to make 10 quick pips.

Hey TRO!!

Do you mean that you bought on price coming OUT of the "aqua" zone?

Is that a common buying scenario?

Thanks
Tex

Yes, that is because I saw price going UP!

That is the last chance to get on the bus as it leaves the RAT ZONE STATION.
