    Hidden Divergence Trades

    I am not here to advocate hidden divergences, I just responded to a very general post from another ET member, I know you pay it forward quite a bit on ET, I respect your efforts. Personally I would help if somebody asked my opinion, no point helping a person that says it doesn't work in real...

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    I mostly trade FDAX, sometimes ES. Method that I use performs better in fDAX. I can't answer your question, what I don't know I can't have an opinion on, but I do have an opinion based on price action in relation to histogram, so my conclusion is more to do with observation rather than hard...

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    Mark, you are deviating from what I was replying to and that was basically divergencies do not work type of an opinion from another member/s, obviously an entry method is just part of a profitable system, I can't dispute that. What would you do if I was to tell you that hammer based entries are...

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    TY! 1) Once you have found an entry method you have to establish what is an expected average expansion range, that means once you are in a position how far on average would price run from your entry point. If that average is around 10 points, then your stop has to be around 3 times less that...

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    It would be silly of me to dispute the above, bang on the money. A good entry method is 'chapter one', but I hope you would agree that you can't read and understand a book by skipping the very first chapter.

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    Here is today's 5 minute ES chart, very obvious divergence on 2-15 min time frames. I didn't trade it, as I wasn't looking at ES at the time, but I would have, most definetly. <img src=http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=1727061>

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    Mark, I am not certain what you are trying to say, please clarify. This is a Long call I've made in Surfers journal, that was a common triple divergence off TL, when most other longer term charts were bullish ImO. Surfer that thinks nothing of conventional indicators was going to go short at...

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    There is that last divergence that was still playing out on previous chart, I scale out, so to me that would have been a winning trade depending on where I set scale out targets, but let's consider it a losing one, we have a very respectable loss vs potential reward. Nothing "fatal", sorry to...

    Hidden Divergence Trades

    I am not here to defend the OP, just my own way of trading, here is a chart, I don't care that it will be viewed in hindsight, it clearly shows that divergence based entries are very achievable, if you apply yourself to it totally. <img...
