looks can be deceptive trading is extremely difficult......there are hardly any times when you have any sort of edge.

too long

do not get personal i was talking generally.-you do not know what i am. i was talking generally.

i use two leg moves also. also momentum and momentum cycles.

i am searching for different ways to get information to base my trading decisions upon. I am not looking for fixed 'strategies' i am thinking beyond any one method of investigation. i 'use' two legged moves also, by the way, apart from ma and channels. the markets have many behaviors many...

why use only one tool? i am looking for information on which to base my trading decisions upon especially since the market is always in a channel.....a trend is a tight channel...which widens slowly....... market is always two sided.

i do not want results i want information i want context. i want to know what the market is doing 10 bars,20 bars 50 bars 100 bars away not everyone uses something in the same way and for the same thing. do not assume tat the other fellow is an idiot it is possible he thinks differently from you

of course i am.....is anyone perfect. i have made money so i am on the right road but it is important to understand why that money was made. i had just forgotten how to draw channels.......i suddenly remembered

do you think only one idea will explain what the market is doing the market is always channeling....even a trend is a tight channel. both ma and channels frame the market .....ma and channels are two ways to identify what the market is doing...whether it is wide or tight channel

so you only understand and use them correctly and you are a big dog that is what i understand

long eurusd bottom of channel expect breakout of top of channel

focus on channels....the market always moves in channels. what is called a strong trend is actually a tight channel. most of the time it is in a broad channel if you know the boundaries of these channels then you will always know when to buy and when to sell

sold another lot tight bear channel sell for any reason

trading is about determining context and then looking for a set up to enter. this is why 90% of traders lose ...they do not understand context but they love set ups. set ups can be taught. context has to learnt. Brooks is hated, by some, because he teaches context and not set ups.

exit a buy when a sell signal triggers. but if the context is a tight channel then do not trade this setup OR ANY SETUP. just trade the context. like in this chart do not look for setups JUST SELL AND PUT A WIDE STOP

if you can read context you can enter on a indicator setup or price action or both and it will work. it takes a few minutes to learn a set up. and it takes years of trading experience to understand context. if you do not know context set ups will fail.......

sold eurusd not a ma sell but a context sell a tight channel the only thing to do is sell

stopped out
