and out at MZ of 1.6370 about 15.5%
This is how I build a position using the H1 charts
nice trade
what was the 1st entry at 1.6312 based on?
es/pips,
I build my position with stage 1 being placed at the open of the next candle after a momo candle. That takes care of when the price just breaks and runs like hell. Stage 2 is at the 50% level of the momo candle and Stage 3 is at the 75% pull back of the momo candle.
It makes it easier for me to get into a position without worring if I am entering correctly. I developed it when Mightyone told you to break your order up.
ok
i was just wondering why you would enter in the place that you did on the first one
there is not really a right or wrong---- i was just curious
thanks
es/pips,
I am attaching another chart with a stage 1 and 2 position. If stage 3 was filled the order would have been worth 9.5%. Since stage 3 was not filled it was worth 3.3%.
How long do you trade with your method? I am going to study it more to see if there is an advantage (time wise) to your method. Currently I only trust H1 since it is the highest timeframe that is the same for everyone in the world. Maybe I can work the lower timeframes, I'll have to research it.
ZL is at 1.6490 looks like I cut it off with my croping.
not sure i follow you
can you rephrase
"How long do you trade with your method? I am going to study it more to see if there is an advantage (time wise) to your method."
i use h1-the monthly charts for my higher timeframes
btw
to post your charts
save the pic as something then go to tinypic.com and upload it then paste the img tag in the body of the message --- it is a lot easier and u do not have to crop anything
ES/PIPS,
I guess that was worded akward. I was just asking how many hours per day do you spend trading?
