Thanks for the answer Johnathon. I asked this question because your decision making looks very good.
Johnathon: I may have been fooled into shorting the bearish engulfing bar at the bottom right side of the prce contain box 4 hr cable. What kept you from shorting out of the range? PLus there was a outside engulfing bar two bars later (small body). I would not have anticipated the upturn. Why did you stay out? Thanks.
Johnathon; Will you take a PA position into a news release? Or stand aside for a bit?
You want a reply but I donât understand what your questions are. The traders you are looking at have pastâŚ
Johnathon, a quick question. If your winning % is only 60%, (I say âonlyâ, just because I thought with your A+ trades it would produce a higher % something like 80%) are most of your trade risk to rewards 2 to 1 or greater? I find it hard to find many 2 to 1 R to R trades, so I was just wondering.
My question is - IF we was see it then what would be the best decision that we can make 
Jonathon youâve completely misunderstood my question,I know we only take a+ trades,ones that only happen on support/resistance BRN,ie pinbars bueb beeb two bar reversals,and with no troubled area to the left etc.,what I was saying was we see signal bars all over the chart not necessarily in the right places which may or may not be positive so what was the correlation being that they were right 50% of the time (or less as you pointed out).And I have read all the first pages and know off by heart all your rules.And Jonathon, in reference to your earlier reply ,the only time you should be stunned is when your wife runs off with the pool boy.Thanks for your time anyway.cheers .
Just to say, from my experience, if I manage trades properlyâŚ40% to 50% is plenty enough to be in profit at the end of the month. Happens to me all the time. "80 % of constant winning trades on 4h and d1 charts is an urban myth lol
Hello johnathon) Do you daily watch other timeframes as 8 hour,12 hour and 2 days? Or you just watch intraday,daily and weekly on daily basis?
Hi buster48) There is no point in discussing those PA signals which formed on a no man,s land.Johnathon is right using them with the confluence will offcourse give us the edge.And for the sake of ethics please don,t point out peoples personal stuff in this thread.
Thanks.
Tahir.
I am sorry. I still donât understand your points or questions. Can you possibly try again please? I donât want to answer and be of the point again.
I was confused after you posted a chart full of tiny candles in the middle of nowhere as if they were tradeable when you know they are not so am a little thrown as to what the pics were for.
I have tried reading your last post a lot of times but canât fully get as to what the questions wasâŚ
This is what throws me:
What do you mean correlation? Correlation with what exactly? Yes there are tiny indecision candles all over the chart. By themselves they donât tell us much but together we can learn things from them. As you know we donât use them to trade but only to add to the clues as to what the price action is doing.
Thank you.
As for others, it is getting on 1am here and going to bed. Will be back around during the week in here.
Safe trading to all this week,
Johnathon
Yes and no. Depends on how each manages trades. I have gone months only trading the daily charts without a loss. And other times when managing more aggressively or looking for bigger winners I have had multiple losses in a row. It all comes back to trade management and higher win rates are very much attainable.
Right really gotta go bed.
Night all,
Johnathon
good night
Howdy all
Im sorry but iv got to butt in here, why are many of you asking such silly questions?
If a trader takes all trades when a RSI crosses below 30 then crosses above it will he make money? Or take all trades when MA crosses over, ect ect ect, OBVIOUSLY NOT!
Johno has mentioned sooooooo many times that PA is not just about taking a BUEB, it HAS to have confluences of being in
an uptrend, pulling back to OLD resistance, new support, could be a bounce of proven round number, could be at a fib level, has room to move before reaching trouble area, has a decent risk-reward ratio, ect ect ect. Surely there has been enough posts in here for people to know this.
As for what % win/loss we get, remember many many times and im included we ourselves are to blame for bad money management, its not the system but our emotions that got the better of us. I have not blamed Johno or questioned his teaching once since iv come on here, as I know most times im to blame.
Ok, thats me done, sorry
Is this a so called 123 setup? It looks quite good with a Sl at 0.8820?!
Thanks Konan for your comment. That is a plus point too which I missed out. I personally feel for safe entry @ 0.8558 with TP1 @ 8470 & TP2 @ 8300 (at 200 EMA , 50% Fibo & next major S/R level). I will keep SL @ 8610 just above RN & the minor support there. I would highly appreciate also comments on this part.
not quite sure what the your talking about with the ethics thing,perhaps your on about the joke about the pool boy,well it was just a light hearted thing which Iâm sure Jonathon could see as just that and and certainly not personal .
Hi Johnathon ,No Its ok mate it probably was a bit hard to follow reading it again ,but anyway Ive found the information I was after on another forex site,so back up with the play,what youve written so far in this forum has been very concise and I was probably trying to delve in a bit deeper than was nessasary.Hope the light hearted reference to the pool boy dident upset you,Im sure it dident,but a guy a couple of posts back seems to have got his knickers in a twist,If we cant have a laugh along the way in this learning curve its a sad old world ,cheers mate keep up the good work.
Not all jokes can be translated across cultural borders.
