Seriously sometimes I just feel like watching price and winging it by feel and SLA which could be disastrous lololol and prob would be. But in the lab in sim it could be fun haha.

I suppose I'll go first.... Chart 1: In my mind I'm still thinking long. We've basically matched the previous down move. Price has only come back about halfway, and although we may be near the top of the range I'm still thinking long. As per DBs posts in this thread based on the lines I...

One trade today breakeven so not even going to bother posting the chart. What I will do is post a series of 5 charts displaying a certain type of action that I don't want to say I struggle with, but I feel what I am seeing is different than what the SLA might say. I'd be curious to see what...

Thank you gentlemen for the help. Much appreciated as always. Can't wait to get the heck out of this office n start my replay lol.

Essentially I have that's why I didn't draw a supply line and took the third trade as a retracement.

Yes I suppose you are right. One thing that's kind of bugging me I guess you can say now and not to be hell bent on lines bc whether I draw them or not I am still going to visualize them, but the action around 9:52 or so to 9:56 I don't really see how a supply line can be drawn because if a...

trust the process and embrace the journey my friend. The more I've come to trust this approach and not even acknowledge a loss or two or even three in any given day my focus has increased tremendously. Hit the close button and keep your eye on price.

The only reason I went back to the lines was to adhere more with exiting more mechanically. This is in hindsight but realistically your long should have been taken as my first trade and not my second trade and instead of exiting and re-entering I should have held on instead. This is what I...

I see I see. That makes sense. I didn't consider that small downward move to qualify for a supply line to be drawn since there was no retracement which is why I took that long at 9:56 plus the longer DL holding, and the behavior was rather sluggish in comparison to the up move. I do see the...

that's basically what I did. Your long is my second long. First long I saw that as what you describe as TDTDB same for my third long at 9:56

The green triangle at 9:56 is the type of situation my original question was about. That was an entry long. You described that as TDTDB. So essentially what you described is what I did. I looked to go short however based on the behavior and the longer term extended DL I went long and was...

There must be some confusion in my explanation because I did not go short until right before 10:20. The first demand line drawn broke and I did look short but no short entry was triggered. Because of the initial move up and the supply line I have drawn broke I entered a long as to not miss the...

My first trade I went long (green) exited (red). Saw this as a retracement I did not want to miss. Then second trade realized I should not have taken the first long as (according to what I saw) a break occured and then retracement. Long the second green triangle exit the second red triangle...

haha so basically what your saying is based on the BEHAVIOR (lol) one treats it as a typical retracement entry if warranted. My third trade from yesterday was my example and I suppose based on what you just said I treated it correctly (based off of the behavior not the fact that the trade...

Most are from DB I believe. Maybe a few from game. A lot is taken from when DB was engaged in game's thread and from the SLA threads. I am really only interested in one type of situation that I am looking for an answer to and if there is a SLA rule for it. It is if you exit on the break...

The behavior of the first 20 minutes or so I was not comfortable with. I recognize how price was moving however I asked myself if this was live right now what would you do? My answer was sit back and watch so after the first trade which I took because I had to (although did not want to) I...

Question for all you SLAers. If you are trading mechanically entering the break/retracement and exiting on the break of the line; what do you do when you exit the trade however the move continues and you do not get the opposing signal? I have read I believe it was in game's journal when DB was...

Just reviewed all of the replays I did over the weekend. Although I was really looking at re-entries, 50% areas, dealing with chop etc there were many trades that should have been taken and basically just the view of some of the charts would have been different had the I'll call it mechanical...

clicked the scroll bar on accident on the replay timer, lost my entries and exits so roughly placed them in myself.

Just reviewed the 8 replays from the weekend. A lot was learned. Definitely developing a sense for the rules I will make.
