Re: Higher Lows Lower Highs

I have updated blog Vantage fx for this system trade. Cannot update 1st post here.

4)A 2b reversal trade which is a variation of the 123 top/bottom and is also an indication of a test and failure.

"In an uptrend, if prices penetrate the previous high but fail to carry through and immediately drop below the previous high, the trend is apt to reverse. The converse is true for downtrends." [Vic Sperandeo in "Trader Vic: Methods of a Wall Street Master"]

Re: Higher Lows Lower Highs

I have been looking at constant range bars (7 pip setting) over the last few days. Very interesting and will continue to consider, at the moment I've ditched 1 min chart in my set up for 7RB.

Re: Higher Lows Lower Highs

Around LO we had a high vol shooting star on 15 min, a push down and another high vol push up. That never followed through.

1st sell the lh at 5623, 2nd sell 5584 nice lh below the RN. This was 3rd sell of the day, exit target the 50 psych level.

All in all a great morning for system.

Re: Higher Lows Lower Highs

Had 2 days of no trades and got a little lazy posting. Some (not all) trades from Y and today.

What is the VOLUME subgraph on your chart based from.....just uptick/downtick action right (no actual traded volume info)?

TIA!
