Can you be more specific on the M5 stop or m5 exit?


When price closes below a line (in unit ie combined candles) that you believe to be support then something is WRONG!

MO,

For some reason I thought he meant something else. I thought he was referring to the methods that help him break even once a candle closed against him. I got it and now I am on the same page. Much thanks.

If the vast majority of traders are responding to the same set of market conditions in a mechanical way does this show up in the charts?

Hell yes it does...

Is it possible to "predict the future" if you know what the masses are going to do in the future?

Hell yes you do.

Many large firms are already aware of this and apply extremely complex pattern recognition software to their charts.

You have no hope...

You think your little mechanical system will survive in the future when the truth is that it will be absorbed.

The only hope you have is understanding and the application of logic.

If price closes against your position then you can set a limit order at the price you entered into the market.

While you can significantly reduce the size of your loss on a lot of trades you do run the risk of taking an additional loss.

If you trade with 15-25 to 1 leverage then you probably just want to get out.

Now I am sort of confused with this post. Are you posting these patterns to help us identify and use to our advantage? Or are they a means to show that patterns can be identified and absorbed?

This clears things up. I didn't like the idea of waiting.

MO,

In the picture that you previously provided, how did you know that price was going down at the moment of "and down we go"? Several points touched the mid-line. And the price seemed to decline at a 30 degree angle slightly before that (the candles hugging the green line).

I know that I won't get a straight answer from you but I would appreciate any more direction.

Also, did you ever talk more about weight, hook and net? I don't ever recall you talking about that.

Sorry for the confusion, my chart is asking franck about his last post, not about your m5
