I think its awesome. Having said, i personally wouldn't enter and exit just from the levels. Id tie it up with a SR from a shorter timeframe. In my mild experience with them (im a short term trader), they work great on the hourly charts. On the 5 ...

Id suggest writing down your technique method to a very specific detail and sticking with it. I spent along time wondering about my own "patience", the real issue there was i didn't have a method distinctly defined. I had some confidence that i ...
how do you improve patience

Yeah, that thought has crossed my mind also. Especially after a string of unexplainable losses. That's more of a band-aid than a cure though... That thought i use as an indicator of sorts.. and indicator that i'm missing something. Maybe the ...

For currencies? Both for sure. Technicals define your day, but when the market strongly trends its because of fundamentals. At the very least you don't want to be against these. Not exactly sure, but i suspect that people who hold positions ...

Thanks for this. During my daily prep, i typically spend ages screwing around getting the current price range to show in the chart and at the right scale. Having 'scale fix' set, and double clicking in the price numbers works like a treat, setting ...

Hey Mr Alum, Without knowing your method, i can't fully say, but on the 1 min charts, a stop loss of 100 pips sounds overly large. Depends on the volatility of your pair on the day of course, but say i was trading the 1 min charts primarily.. i'd be ...

Welcome to the shorter timeframes Mr Alum. Don't let the nay sayers about short term trading get you down. The larger timeframes move relatively glacially to the 1 min's, which can result in more reliable trades, BUT there is a huge trade off, when ...

I don't use them for momentum, but i still swear by the 1 deviation bollingers. Set the deviation value to 1, and have a look at how it interacts with the 1 min chart. Trends respect that 1 deviation bollinger incredibly well.. When the price is ...

Any idea why EU spread is so high right now? You'd think that with all the movement over the last week, and more people trading..? it would be LOWER than usual. To my eyes at least, all London session its been at the high end of 2 pips (closer to 3).
