Do you get like this :mad: when the market is like this :zzz: ????

Well you know what... that type of market may anticipate a great bussiness oportunity... let me call it "Super Coil Break"... a trade designed for people who follow all the session... unfortunaltely I am becoming that people jejeje... well this trade demands first : patience and then a very simple timing entry technique... with a trend following method where you can get the most of the move...

As you can notice this is not a scalper method... we can add some nuances to this trade later.... cheers Walter.

Walt,
I'm confused again.

I was going to ask why you exited your initial trade so early, based on this pic here:




But then you posted another chart with a different exit.



Just trying to understand the nuances of your entries and exits on these setups...

Is the break into the outer Keltner the exit scenario?

What is the re-entry signal then?

Please help me see the light through the Friday fog?

Walter - are you initiating the trade on the first break or a close outside the keltner? The 'bands' out there - keltner, bollinger, etc - can work well in the example you gave assuming the bands do not break on false breaks. In other words, having looked at keltners myself, I found many times where price would peak it's head outside the band enough to initiate a trade and then quickly retreat back into the band. Needless to say, that was awhile ago and haven't gone back to any band indicator since.

Actually there are two diferent setups there : one is a "Super Coil Break" wich has a trend following type exit.... and the other one is a "Flip" Trade wich on the chart I show the scalpers exit (normal exit) and given the super momentum conditions I showed a trend following exit too...

The trend following exits are when we get back inside the keltner bands...

I ONLY take this type of exits when market climate has super momentum (taking way off the keltner outerbands)....

hope this clarifies the charts... actually they belong to two diferent threads... cheers Walter.

Yes Brown, the entry was when it got out of the first keltner and let me tell you after 75 minutes of coil (super coil ) its worth the risk... because you have a great potencial being build up for the break, the longer the coil the more explosive the break.... vs a very tight stop below the resistance.... as you can see some times this type of strategies can work very well because they have embeded a very good RRR on it... so its worth the try...

I cant say, I wont take a breakout trade because there are false breakouts... would not be that smart on this type of scenario when we had not a coil but a "super coil".... this one was live with 30 contracts and when out all together at the first exit signal wich worked for 9.4k... its the only type of trade besides my M`s I am willing to take inside the day, must confess I havent trade this setup for months...

I did repent not to take live the flip that happen after that.... its still on beta lol....

Again the nuance is : The longer the coil, the more explosive the break... Cheers Walter.

Nice setup Walter. Have you tried looking for an entry on the first pullback of the breakout and also to qualify the breakout with, say, 50 CCI > 50?

Hi Momentom : in this such large coil, you can expect big explosions on the break and many times there simply is no pullback to give you an entry... so crossing these keltner level should do it.... on a regular coil... yes, I would suggest taking the pullback wich would actually be a flip... in terms of cci 50 I am not following it... but the sinonimous reading would be with keltner... should I remind that cci oscillator 0 line works like a detrended average, so levels 100 and 200 would be equivalent to bands by x atr`s... cheers Walter.

Want to add another chart from fridays super coil and make a comentary of two clear characteristics that make a "super coil"...

1_ Loooooong period going nowhere..... (in this case 100 minutes)

2_ Always cycling inside smaller keltners...


"Super Coils" are easy to recognize, it just takes patience.... and they dont happen every day.... cheers Walter.
