It is easier than most think when to delay taking signals, i.e. when not to take signals. What has worked for me is S/R forming, don't trade against Triple tops/bottoms, Doubles(very tight areas), H&S, trendlines on 60 minute bars. If you #1 before signals, is seeing to left of now what price has done, will stop you from going "AH CRAP", say you got into a trade long, and you have tad of decent profit, if that top area been hit less than 6 times, most likely best to take profits, but it area been hit more than 6 times, likely it will bounce in area then go through, but don't walk away, it not 100%.
