I agree......i just like the confirmation of an MA cross - it is like a warm fluffy stuffed animal that keeps me warm at night :)

Say for example you get a reversal at the end of a very very long green H1, you can get a significant drop in price before H1 goes red. Entering this trade put you "against the candle".

I use the 60 minute MA on the 5 minute chart so i can see the trend over the hour without flipping back and forth between charts

Besides I have seen you put a squiggle or two on a chart:)

The statistics tells us when to expect a reversal - after 3 or more like colored bars in a row.

But the PRICE tells us when the reversal is actually happening.

Higher Highs/Lows = Up reversal

Lower Highs/Lows = Down reversal.

TRO DASHBOARD HL TREND (donational indicator) displays the trend for the pairs for the time frame.

SQUIGGLY?

Hi folks,

I was getting annoyed with manually re-plotting my hourly open line all of the time, so I made a tool that does it for me.

Happy trading :D

Thats cool =]

But have you tried TRO's Custom Candle which is good for showing any higher time frame on a lower one? Works a charm =]

edit: it doesn't display the opening hourly price though.. if that's what you're specifically after.

I seem to be catching a lot of losing trades lately, but even when I was doing ok the results where far far below dragon or Al Mo.

This makes me think that I could be using the indicator incorrectly - or possibly that I am taking profits too quickly (3-5 pips) and that can't keep up with the 20 pip losses that i get.

Example;
On this chart I would be waiting to enter short at the blue dots, or long(scalp against D1 colour) at the green line - which is where the hourly candle will change colour.

Is this correct?

Help me Obiwan Kenobi - your're my only hope :cry:

Hey pierre,

I have Custom Candle, and I do use it frequently. It's a great indicator.
In this case I just wanted something very simple that didn't make my charts too 'busy' and with the option of having a price tag .

Cheers

Managed to squeeze 15 pips out of a long trade this time. Could have had a lot more, but I didn't want to be too greedy trading against D1. This is really great, and I am happy about it but I just can't seem to be consistent.

I must say that I feel I haven't really seen the 'IT' that everyone constantly refers to. If I had seen IT then I would be getting comparable results. But I'm not - even after weeks of reading the threads over and over and over again, looking over all of the charts for little clues. Maybe I am just stupid and can't see the forest for the trees?

I really wish that soemone would just tell me what the "IT" is...then I could start digging myself out of this hole and put a smile back where it used to be once upon a time...

Maybe your stop loss is to big, i set mine to 5 pips above or below depending if it resistance or support. The trade is either going your way or not or stalling.

Can I ask what indi the white dots are (the tunnel)? I recall a post by Dragon saying NOT to trade when that tunnel is "flat horizontal".. see the link:
