The first 2 green rat reversals were losing

Do you see a reason not to enter those trades?

entries.

Here are my attemps:
1) There were 7 red candles before the first green one.
2) Both green candles following the red candles were IB's.
3) The bodies of both green candles were about 85% to 90% the size of the bodies of the preceding red candles.
4) Entry point is well above the middle of the 20 pip zone; greater chance of getting stopped out.

Am I warm?
8)


I agree about the IB's - The reversals candles should either be making an attempt to push above the previous candle or have been rejected after a push below the previous candle .

From previous posts I believe TRO has said that the trade is valid when leaving the 20 pip zone - irrespective of waiting to take the trade at the top of the previous reversal candle. - Its your last chance if you did not see a rat reverse signal ( like - price left the zone in one push)

You have made some other good points as well.

TRO sort of suggests, there are more than two reasons not to have entered

This is good stuff to discuss - It will help a lot of us to start thinking.

Greetings from Romania to al of you people and special thanks to TheRumpledOne for sharing with us his trading knowledge!
I'm very new to this business, just one month.
Yesterday I've start trading (on demo) the way TheRumpledOne is learning us and I start having some promissing results. I like this method of trading because I consider it a form of ZEN.

Best regards!

:evil:

We will try again. Probably more YALE material but maybe this exercise will exorcise the YALE in me :lol:



Neither of the first 2 Green candles closed above a preceding candle.

But this begs the question: would you have taken the 3rd setup?

or would you have waited till the 4th setup when price exited the 20 pip zone?

Is price closing higher or lower than something? Simple yet powerful question. ..MO

RESULTS.

Reversals come in one of two flavors, "V" shaped or "U" shaped. This was a "U" shaped.


Mr Yale will have another go :oops:

After a fall like that, just one green candle on its own wasn't enough evidence - after seeing two greens close side by side you saw a possible reversal signal?

But a V shaped formation might not have given you time to enter on the break of a previous high - so you simply place a market order at the top of the zone and grabbed any pips offered?

Oh! - And after the first green pair together - the greens simply start to balance the reds - so the market is fighting back here?

The first green candle was too long and out of 20pip zone. H1 had just turned green at entry. But I see it as a Yale :)

Hi Tro

I've been practicing rats with buy limits but finding it hard to catch the wave, may I ask why you prefer buy limit orders over buy stop?

Thanks :)
