Triangles are awesome!

I found that triangles are extremely helpful in my trading and I'm really fascinated with them at present (thanks MO :D)
so I decided to start separate thread about them.

Anyone is more than welcome to share trades and ideas here so together we can improve our trading.
And if you see something stupid on my charts please let me know! :wink:

So, let's begin.
Here are my last 2+d extreme trades.
Quick scalp short to gain some OPM and then long
(with risk of just 3,5 pips - thanks to said OPM :twisted: ).

Triangles used as confluence. Aren't they just awesome? 8)

Another proof that all we need to trade is line :D

1. draw a line
2. adjust angle
3. copy and move it lower/higher accordingly to higher time frame direction
4. repeat pt. 3

And the result!

At half time - not convinced about the lower line but its near enough to the crash zone - unless I get another chance to practice my bleedin awful exits! - I don't use these charts to trade off btw - just confirmation of other stuff.

sort of

"What I Want to See
Where I Want to See It

Actually I may start a thread just about exits - There's a million ideas on the entry - who cares if you cant EXIT nicely
