Hello again tymen1 i saw that you use candlesticks with small time frames and just get small pips . scalping did you try to use them in longer time frame like 1h ?I`m sure that you will have better results .... like i said i also use them but i don`t use Bollinger bands ...only stoch rsi and candles but i`m pretty pleased with my results.o yes and how much you average get per day ?

Regards,

Teodosy

I use 12 time frames, the longest of these being 1 hour.

My approach is basically a scalping arrangement with a target of 9/10 pips on the first candle.

But if you go beyond the first candle, anything is possible via the way of earning pips.

My money take is irrelevant, anyway, i spend most of my time on the sharemarket.

There are many indicators to show price is in overbought or oversold. But may be you can use this one. A stochastic with colors. here is the link to the thread, there are may choices of the stochastic.

Hope this helps.....

hi guys

this is the most confusing state of the market to me, when the trend keeps going up or down but steadily instead of fast and sweet way . any one have any suggestion how to see for reversal ?

cheers

Why not take the easier & more obvious option, & run with the trend?

If prices are travelling ok on the hourlies, zoom into a lower timeframe reference (15 or 30m) & buy a pullback in an uptrend/sell a rally in a downtrend.

When prices begin to display reversal behaviour (lower lows & highs/higher high's & lows) on say a 60min chart, then is the time to begin looking for your reversal set up's. Yeah?

Well, given that I know nothing of your trade templates, general prep or work planning etc, it's difficult to assess what you look for & how you plan your preparation/research etc.

But if you're attempting to leg in via a Daily guide, then one option would be to simply drop down a couple timeframes & fine tune your entry via the technicals on the lower chart references?

If the Daily is in trend mode then your 60-240m frames will be in harmony. Just use your normal trade triggers/set up criteria to leg into a directional move.

Again, one such option would be a pullback on the 60min or 30min timeframe?

I dunno, like I said, it depends what you use to trigger & manage entries.
