a bit about her abbreviations in the setup and notes sections:
pbb = pull back bar
LH/HL = Lower High/Higher Low
UP/DOWN arrow = Rising/Falling 5m20EMA
CT = Counter Trend
toh/tol = ???
DT = Double Top
WT = With Trend
brtrp = bear trap
fbo = failed break out
SAR = stop and reverse
NSS = non survivable stop
a bit more info on the spreadsheet;
Time Stamps are 3 hours behind New York. Data is from December 3rd 2010. Most of the entries are taken on 5m bar break in opposite direction of price movement.
This is the very post, this very spreadsheet actually, that changed everything for me. The moment I started doing the same type of work she demonstrated and suggested in this post and everywhere again and again, I started improving.
