DC,

i am not domiciled in the usa.

regulatory is most important and the ability to cross margin a bank account to a broker to trade.

brokers sitting on small islands in banana republics et al. are of no interest.

lots of discussion elsewhere on the net on this topic.

cheers,

s

the db swiss cheese diverged setup was already in place before non farm.

ok here is a trade i made today.

I show a DT with divergence on the 1st rectangle (without any fib) where i entered on the white line.
Then price reversed but didnt hit my SL and formed another DT with divergence and hit 423
i though it could go lower. Well it didnt.
I was lucky i suppose and it formed a 3rd DT with diverge.
But I should have used a trailing stop to protect my pips on the 2nd DT right?

Now on the 3rd DT I had to redraw the fibs so TP are different.
So I wasnt sure on where I should place exit
so i just took profit near the money line (ok i didnt know what else to do).

I suppose I should have used a trailing stop but i preferred to just grab my pips and run.

As I type price moves lower but how could i know that, right? My magic crystal ball from ebay hasn't arrived yet... The seller said it tells the future... :D

.........................................................

watch the 15 min. chart for end of trend

then trade the 5 min.
don't stand in front of a bull train until you see it slowing down.

clues.........
lower hi and lower low, histo rolling over etc.....
on the 15 min.

you need to define trend.
