"... so what im doing is basically trading some lines im sticking on the chart? "

Is there any other way?

How do you get non standard time frames?
Is price closing higher or lower than something? Simple yet powerful question. ..MO

I am absorbing lots of info about options. binaries, and vanilla.

Can you tell me why do you prefer binary options over vanilla?

thanks

JUAN


I love trading vanilla on the Futures market, but I have not looked into vanilla options on Forex.

2. Price to move 1/6 from the low or the open (Check)

3. My finger to move and touch the macro to enter (enter at price and 1/4 range as sl 35 pipish) ... :shock: :shock: :shock:

Exit at revearse signs on 5m .. So im getting the picture u do not use this to trade normal forex.. ur using it as these strike prices on binarys? ... so what im doing is basicly trading some lines im sticking on the chart? :) :)


There is no need to watch a 5 minute chart as I am sure that you are aware of how long the candle should be on average.

When the extremes widen to 2/3 or 5/6 of average then you can start thinking about exiting your trade.

I am starting to believe that the only things that matter are:

1. Range

2. Correction Size

&

3. Color

:shock:



The only things that matter. How r u MO? thks again.

1) Fine tuning the "correction" appears to be a common human behaviour for good or bad, which i find most difficult to be disciplined.

What is a good guide in your arsenal and which is best from your exp/statistics to pin point end of correction vs change of direction? from the examples, it seems to be x pips based ie 1/3 point, 1/6 range etc and/or time-based m5 (or X time), with relative to the open price (which can be open of a normal bar or open of a trade position (custom bar).

My thoughts

1) Time is an important factor, because i boxed up the price in x time for statistics.

2) The selection of timeframe plus its relationship to lot allocation/account size is paramount.

3) Some statistical advantage (esp the non-parametrics) appears better in certain timeframe (ie lower or higher). Thanks to TRO.

Nice sentiment Braathen. We don't have Thanksgiving in Australia either but I'd like to say thanks for all the giving that goes on here as well. :)

Nice one brookmyre :) :)

MO.. was looking at this statement "Price to move 1/6 from the low or the open" now the "from the low" part.. when u get the time is there any chance you could stick up a little pic of your fibo placement on that.. ive seen your pics from open with box and fibo.. ill look back through it all incase i missed it
