    forex price action as an edge

    Yeah , mums the word on the details . I think most if not all those praising indicators have an agenda which would account for all the " educators " out there .

    forex price action as an edge

    I know many people on ET claim to have given up on indicators . I am seeing more evidence to join them for several reasons . The main reason for me is that I've found there to be no indicator(s) that provide an edge in all conditions and theres no way to know when to employ which set of...

    No red candle at 1412 . I have a sell stop at 671.2 (1 tick below the 1424 12 min. candle ) . If filled the stop will be 674,5 and I'll try to move it to breakeven quickly .

    If the 1412 12 min. DS closes below 20 with a red candle I'll try a long with a trailing buy stop 1 tick above the red candle and trail it down if not filled . The reason is lower low price .

    The long stops out +5.3 pts . Price rallied on very low volume but overall still looking bearish . I'll watch the 12 and 60 min. again today for a while looking for overbought on the 12 min but if price makes a lower low I'll look for oversold to go long again .

    OK I'm still long and moved the stop up to 682.2 ( 5 ticks below the PL ) locking in 5.4 pts profit. I'll hold on and see what happens overnight . This is using the triple screen Dr. Elder methodology with the intermediate timeframe taking signals with a slow stochastic . I'm looking for a...

    OK I'm long now at 676.8 with a 1.7 pt stop ( 2 tick below entry candle low ) . If price trades above the S1 (678.17 ) then I'll move the stop up to 677.5 . If that holds , I'll hold overnight if need be .

    The 1436 12 min. candle closed red with the DS closing 13.7 . I have a buy stop at 677.7 and I'll lower it if the next bar has a lower high until I'm filled . This will be countertrend and I'll try to capture as much profit as I can reasonably .

    If the 1436 bar on the 12 min closes red with the DS below 20 I'll place a buy stop above that candle . The reason is there is a lower low in price and price is near the bottom of my downtrend channel . I'll use a tight stop below the candle low 2 ticks .

    Thanks for the reply . Yeah , losing streaks can wreak havoc with your emotions and winning streaks can do even worse damage I think . The biggest obstacle I find myself up againt is finding one edge or even corresponding timeframe that suits me . For example I find myself trying to hop between...
