Al Brooks,
If you cannot see which way the market is going within a "few" seconds, assume it's in consolidation.
If you are ever confused about what to do, assume the market is in a consolidation.
Broad channels or shallow sloping channels, trade like Consolidation.
Buy low, sell high, and scalp (1:1)
Spikes/Breakouts or tight channels trade only with the trend.
Big up, big down, big confusion. Assume the market is going to be a range day.

Joe Ross knows when price is in consolidation within 4 bars (ledge).
That guy still amazes me.
He has taken many systems and traded them for an entire year just to refine them or prove them out.
Successful trading is boring. He did this just for something different and to refine his skills in a certain area.
Trippy.

I saw your post on the other thread (Pro's)

I haven't got too much to go on - but does this markup seem reasonable?

In the "something" you may be looking for I mean (yellow box)

It was an interesting excercise getting a general feel for what/where you traded - given only the pair as a clue - first time I've ever done something like that :shock:

On the above posts chart it was nice how the whiplash defined the target into that demand

his podcasts about being ashamed of being
a trader and other ones. In those he suggested
that when you are asked what you do you shouldn't
say you are a trader. He said you should know
specifically what kind of trader you are and say
that.

I'm a post candle closing over something supply
and demand currency trader.

I'll probably get some strange looks from that. Not
that I don't already when I say I'm a currency trader.

It's better than: I try to trade currencies by switching
my method all the time because I don't want to
admit I am the problem and it's not the method. :roll:

Try for yourself and see if your description is legit
or you realize you have been an idiot.



Hi Alias, I was wondering if you could give your thoughts on the Sup/Dem part of this equation? I have been sticking my nose in this stuff and found so many people teaching similar but different stuff on S/D. What does this do for your trading? Is it just another filter to see price thorough? I know Capt P could talk about this stuff FOREVER :lol:

I just go down a list:

1. close overs
2. failure to close over
3. congestion
4. breakout from triangle
5. triangle
6. extreme or BOx
7. space/decision

It takes me less than 10 seconds to come to a decision on any chart.


I understand everything in this chart except for these two lines. Anyone want to take any guesses what creates them?

Sleeping...make space
Rode that Eur/cad short down to 1.3905 and woke up to
make first %target hit this year.
Hitting a %target means "I Win' and it feels good to win.
I didn't have "Win" conditions before. I was on the endless
trading loop with no exit to be found. I think this %target
idea is a great addition to what I am doing. For 1 it helps
having a plan and 2 it helps psychologically.

How do you eat an elephant (+1 zero), ONE %target at a time. :D

Now I have my "playmoney" to tackle the next "game".
THE NEXT "GAME" BEING THE NEW %TARGET

As My plan is outlined my objective at the beginning of
the year is to run 1% of my starting account into 9%.

The objective for the remainder of 2015 is to run that 9%
into incremental %targets of 58.5%

If the %target is done 1 time in the year the outcome is:
72.76% profit for the year.

If the %target is done 2 time in the year the outcome is:
173.83% profit for the year.

If the %target is done 3 time in the year the outcome is:
334% profit for the year.

If the %target is done 4 time in the year the outcome is:
588% profit for the year.

If the %target is done 5 time in the year the outcome is:
990% profit for the year. This is the +1 zero

If the %target is done 6 time in the year the outcome is:
1628% profit for the year.

If the %target is done 7 time in the year the outcome is:
2638% profit for the year.
