My blind mouse needs to open his dadgum eyes.

Trading against price movement is a pain in my A.
+50
pips net on 5 trades and saw +18 one but let it hit my (moved up) stop, -2.

What I envisioned was going to happen, finally did.
I started shorting waaaaay to early.

It's still really early and I need to wrap my head around this a bit more but I think I love MO. I'm a man and I'm not afraid to say it.

I like this idea since this is more S&R-centric. I think I have been too focused on targets and momo that I put less emphasis on S&R lines.

I am mid trade but I wanted to show this. Right now I am up 55 pips on 2Us. Again I had a late entry but still looking good. I am looking to average in more once this candle closes. So far, around 100 pips today without feeling too stressed out. Thanks again MO.

Edit: Just to clarify, I don't think my entry is technically according to this strategy. But I noticed that it hit a S&R and closed below it it.

Actually, if you look at the wicks charging toward my 2U average, I was a little stressed. But I was never in the red. It is amazinf how price respects S&R points. It's crazy actually.

Oh well, I got stopped out at BE. It advanced past my S&R line and took out my 4U average. Lost out on at least 70+ pips but I definitely like this way of trading. Broke even on this trade but made some pips with my earlier trade.

Now that I am looking at the chart, I should have closed out my trade when it touched an extreme S&R point but closed above it. Lesson learned.

newark, nice work. How did you change the color and size of the semafor numbers?

Price closed over a line that you believed to be support and that is the first indication that something is WRONG-MO
