You’re right, that’s the technical definition. Personally I’d prefer to see it close high, or if not get confirmation on subsequent bar, which hasn’t happened anyways. So I’d still pass on this one:)[/QUOTE]
I agree, I too am passing on this one as there are sell signals that have formed on the 4 hour charts and the selling pressure over the past few week or so
The reason i did not take that is because i watched the price struggle to close at the 130.00 this morning before new york close as well as some other JPY pairs. so i think most probably the JPY pairs are going down today
[B]Heads up everyone)[/B] Please stay away from the long orders on all yen pairs.A lot of faking bullish pin bars are appearing on yen pairs but in reality the historic up trend on yen pairs is loosing it,s power and right now there is war between bulls and bears is going on and we should not become part of this war.Watch it from the sidelines.
Thanks
Happy Trading
Risks I see with this one at the moment. Just my opinion of course:
If you are looking at this as a BUEB, it should engulf the previous candle, and ideally the high of this candle should extend well above the high of the previous candle. The further this secondary candle rises, the stronger the signal is considered. If it closes higher it would be better as BUEB or even pin bar on the daily.
Looks like ranging and indecision just above and to the left.
I don’t see a good bounce off support. Would have like to see it form lower, closer to support at 1.6365
Yes marketdeal, i agree with your opinion. just like the first pin bar that was traded on sunday, it lost all the profits it made the following day plus this new pin bar that failed indicates a strong pressure between the bulls and bears
My entry didnt trigger and i have closed the order.
If entry does not trigger, when should I close the order?
should I wait until it hit the SL which is what i did in this case. or should i wait for another candle stick to form ? or should there be a time limit?
Hello dudest) A few months ago i saw your post about the MPTM trade manager where you have also told about the another method of opening of different positions for splitting risk and taking partial profits.Now i can,t find that post i tried but can,t .These days i am actually trading futures with the FXCM where i can,t took partial profits by closing part of my existing position.So i think the only way to do that is by the opening different positions.But now i am not clear about how that method really works.Can you please explain that again?
I would say as soon as price reaches your SL your trade idea becomes invalid.
Price has moved where you didn’t want it to go.
That is what i use to determine when i close down a trade.
Using a fixed amount of time i wouldn’t recommend as the market doesn’t take this into consideration as it moves.
I would say as soon as SL is hit the idea is invalid.
