Actions for the 4th.  Not much in the way of notes, once price cleared the overnight high I thought it was likely price would head for the weekly high before it did anything else, ended up doing the opposite of what I thought.

thanks g

does feb 14 through ~ mar 8 have any signif to you?

z,

 

At the time I was aware that the volume was high and the movements intraday were big and that I thought it was likely price would recover back to the high.  I'm probably missing something but the 14th showed strength recovering above the MP of the drop, the kick near the high was not a huge surprise given a lot of eyes would have been focused on that level.  There were a few pauses and a little backfill in the rally but that's often what rallies do.  Its not so significant now as that area has been swallowed by the highs, lows and possible channel but at the time it was all pointing towards recovery of the drop.

Been on a break and had some time think about some of the issues behind my results... or lack of, things might look a little messy going forward as I try to figure some things out. 

Prep and actions for the 30th.

Actions for the 4th.  Missed the open then waited for a clear sign of rejection of resistance or a BO of the morning highs.

Actions for the 19th.  Missed the opening again, I missed the best opportunities coming off the lows due to lack of attention, getting tangled in trades at the MP was a little amateur given my low pain threshold for adverse movement.

Actions for the 20th.  Volume seemed high and price was choppy, trade 1 was a little weak as I knew at the time PA was a ducking and diving.  I quickly found myself getting flustered in trade 2 as it showed no sign of following through almost as soon as it triggered.

As for the notes, its nothing new that volume spikes or surges can telegraph turning points as interested parties make their moves, I'm struggling to act on it and pick it out when volume is high (first hour today).  It only seems to work well when I pass on it or if I look at a chart in hindsight.

    • @sxiqxx, Well done on making your first post a promising strategy. @everyone, post up if you want this coded into an EA. Although I switched to TradeStation, I still have an active MT5 demo with MetaEditor. I can code it without referencing object oriented programming which should be retroactively compatible with MT4. Let me know...
    • Please allow me to retort (in jest): RESPONSE 1 : Get a job supervising others where you're in control of performance reports and ride those others 100%. This makes your performance 100% with little to no effort.   RESPONSE 2: Feel free to piss off your boss but stay nonviolent. When the side effects of his viagra and testosterone boosters cause him to physically assault you, you have the legal upper hand. This can result in a boatload of trading capital.   RESPONSE 3: Feel free to have intimate relations with your boss if she finds you attractive. Rest assured that mum's the word because once again, you have the legal upper hand. This can also result in a boatload of trading capital.   RESPONSE 4: Don't be fake friends with any enemies... unless you need information from them. Being fake friends with everyone will cause you to become an empty shell of a person with no direction in life.   REPONSE 5: Get your boss to become reliant on your performance (really, just the performance of your subordinates), and then plan an "overheard" conversation wherein you fake an interview with another potential employer. You'll probably get a pay increase or a promotion.   RESPONSE 6: If you can give your 75% percent to a project, give 50% and rely on your legal upper hand(s). Learn to write trading algo's during your other 50%.   RESPONSE 7: Take all of the office boys out to nightclub where you merely sip soft drinks on a weeknight. Upon your return to the office in the morning, inform the security guards that all of the office boys are intoxicated. Your boss will love you for it.   RESPONSE 8: Never try to prove your client wrong or find faults in their processes, but do secretly collect their information in case you jump ship or "someone you know" decides to start his own company.   RESPONSE 9: Never stay in a firm for too long. Instead, use your ill-gotten capital to exit the rat-race and start trading.   RESPONSE 10: Trading pays more than your career. Interpersonal skills are now irrelevant. Use your technical skills for trading. Never stop learning and keep updating your technical skills.😁
    • There are a lot of trading strategies like elliot waves, wyckoff etc so we need to apply those who best suited to our need and are understandable too.
    • Scalping can be good during the high volatile markets however the new traders should be careful while entering and exiting the markets too quickly since they can make losses as well. If the broker support news trading we can make most out of the scalping in my opinion.  
    • In my opinion these candlestick charts are more easier to understand as compared with the other charts.
