mdl, BYF, both of you are right. If I chose to enter the second that bar broke the low of the previous bar, I would need a stop place a few tick above the previous bar which is pretty risky. However, I read in the journal Piscuy uses this play as a box formation. and he would set the stop middle...

Good play BYF. That second play would have carried you far if it didn't get stopped out. I have a question regarding that entry, please see attached chart. Thanks JW

Took 8 trades this morning. all bad. almost too embarassing to post. here it is. today was a very very humbling day for me as i will get back to the absolute basics from now on. I will only trade if 2hh/hl or 1db/dt + hh/hl. Nothing else. Trade 1 Bad. No higher high; previous down trend...

no problems... it will be more fun trading with more people to chat with... JW

I made some after hour trades. Not so good, lost $70. I made 5 trades in after market. 1 winner, 2 break even, 2 losers First trade was good, breakout. 2nd trade was an accident, was going to place buy stop above resistance 3rd trade shorted. Didn't stay in was waiting for it to close...

Thanks BYF.. now I gotta make more plays like that. JW

yes it is.

Attached are my trades today. Very bad day... over trading, calling reversals too early, and bad stop management. Learning something everyday. I will try to use the anchor chart more tomorrow to reduce over trading. 15 trades... down $500... thank god for sim money... Cheers JW

FYI, Attached are the instructions for setting up the chat room. Look for #AHG1 room. #AHG (Anek's room is password protected) Credit goes to Hwkaiser. Cheers JW

Hi Cold Brew, The AHG1 room should be open, no passwords. Did you set it up correctly? Andas, I'll see you in the room tomorrow morning. Cheers JW

yes, i'm thinking of using the 10k for entries. I thought about the 5k but it has more fakes. what do you think about the signals on that chart? Thanks JW

Quick question, are any of you guys using the #AHG or #AHG1 chat rooms? Thanks JW

Sniemiec, thanks for your input. I noticed the same thing too. that last bar looks like a hammer and when you zoom in, it looks like a reversal pattern... also, the trend is up... funny how little details can distort one's judgment...

Hi all, Can anyone comment if we have a HS breakout confirmation on this chart??? Thanks JW

Just posted the wrong chart... repost... BYF, yea, I gotta work on patience. What do you think of these charts for entry? Cheers JW

JDK, don't know how I ended up on this tread... Was reading AHG thread that led me to the Pictures of trading stations thread and now to this... BTW your office setup is the best ever... You even have a Xerox in the corner... lol... I inspire to have an office like that, only if my trading...

Awesome job BYF, I had a full sim day today... man did I get destroyed! this is way harder than I thought. I way over traded, 24 trades for -$125. Most of it is my fault but TS did freeze a couple times and I got disconnected too. Made all the rookie mistakes: -calling reversals before...

Hey BYF, What was the rationale for the 3rd and 4th trades? The 5th could've been a home run... we all gotta work on letting it ride and not close out too quick. I did that this morning as well. Cheers JW

2 trades this morning on the NQ... Trade 1, Stopped out Notice trend line broken, lesson is wait for confirmation of uptrend or continued downtrend before entering. Trade 2, Winner Great entry with the trend, textbook AHG. Only problem is I should have not moved my stop up early, could...

LOL... is that a m bottom? I see the double top... but where's the M?? Thanks JW
