The "Second Wave" Trade

Recommended Posts

I think we have come along way in such a short period. I believe we do need some backtesting, But Bravo !!!!!!!!

 

 

What I am enjoying of this process is how we got to combine very diferent aproaches, taking the best from each one and making a new creative aproach... you got FHR + Icon + momentum vs non-momentum + cci timing methods + fixed exits strategies + RRR etc etc... so I agree we need to backtest and forward test this... I got three years of data ¡¡ so it should be good... cheers Walter.

I believe looking for a 50% fib retracment is the most consistent way to play these setups. It's tempting to get in too early only to have the market retrace more and stop you out, or to wait to long and then chase. But consistently waiting for the 50% seems the ticket.

 

 

Hi Gary, I consider that your input here has some great value and I am making a parenthesis on my process to give some consideration into it...

 

I know fibos can predict very good accurate areas... My struggle is how to determine from where will I measure them... IF I can find a very simple and stupid way to draw fibos that we could use as a reference, it would be interesting to add them into our considerartion...

 

Its obvious that fibos ar drawn from pivot to pivot... the big question here would be : wich pivots should be selected to draw the fibos... cheers Walter.

 

PD : I also saw Therumpledone added a dynamic fibo indicator for TS... would be nice if we could get something similar for MT4....

Here I attach an example of a "second wave" trade that considers the fibo level.... any way this doesnt change the timing with cci... I believe it can help to show what type of pullback we are really looking for...(size of Pullback)

What I notice is that you have very small pullbacks (micropullbacks) some times that will even move cci on the other side of 0 but the real pullback wave still its not over... this fibo considerations could tell us what type of measure we expect in average for a pullback... and avoid taking "micropullbacks"... its another way of filtering out noise on this "pullback" instance of the setup... ill make video to explain.. cheers Walter.

Ok... I had been doing this evening some more research on the "second wave" trade and I like so far what I see... also I like what I am experimenting with fibos to give strength to our setup, so thanks for inputs to Gary (GCB) on this very interesting issue to add here...

 

What I want to explain now a little bit is how do I select the pivots in order to draw a fibo...

 

So to make it more easy I decided to explain it on a video... hope you guys understand me, any questions please ask me... I will try to explain.. cheers Walter.

I tell you, this just keeps working! :D

 

 

Yes Don its really nice... I am dedicating the entire week too forex research, so far today I already did 10 hours worth of charts reading... In terms of this second wave trade, it clearly opens to more even simplier trades that happen all day... I dont know if I will mix this thread or start a new one with another paralel method I am seen right now (any suggestions ? )...

 

 

I have to make clear here that I am researching and I am not loyal to any prospect method here... so far at this point is ALL JUST IDEAS nice neet ideas.... maybe from here to one month I will make my mind and start paper trading some of this methods until end of year.... I expect going live january 2008...

I would just go ahead and start a new thread, Unless its using Fibs:D

 

 

Ok, I will do that... no it doesnt use fibs... actually its a very small icon that works also like a second wave fashion trade... very scalper type.... I will make that thread right now... see ya...

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
