Hello Walter,

 

Been having a snook at one or two of your fast timeframe threads, some pretty decent content & research going on thereabouts - your enthusiasm & positive approach is very refreshing! I hope your endeavors continue to pay just rewards ;)

 

I don't intend to hijack your thread or your work Walter, so my apologies if this post detracts from your ongoing research.

 

I didn't know where else to post this & it's really intended to use as another? example of these types of fast(er) timeframe trade set-ups.

 

Please disregard it & the mods can delete/move it if you don't want it to clog up your thread.

 

Anyways, our nephew has been trading this little wippersnapper for quite a while now across a varied selection of pairs.

 

Apparently, it's made an appearance on one of the other forums recently, but then eventually everything morphs into something & gets resurrected in some format LOL.

 

He plots a 14 period RSI on the 5min timeframe & uses the extreme signal beyond 30/70 at supply-demand lines from the higher timeframes, in accordance with a mid-term trend.

 

Occasionally he'll kick a counter trend entry if the positioning (& supply-demand line) gets out of whack.

 

That's it really, nothing more complicated than that. He's been grinding it out since last last spring, mainly on the Yen pairs & the Cable.

 

I've hauled up a couple examples on Geppy & CAD mainly to highlight the variables of the pairings etc. But these set-ups appear pretty regularly during the trading week, & offer decent follow thru management once prices penetrate & kick thru a well observed supply-demand camp.

 

It's a cheeky little trade, & he's happy enough with his pocket money out of it, but it just shows you, something trivial & simple when utilized sensibly, can jog along handsomely :)

 

Apologies again for cluttering up your interesting thread Walter, I won't post this stuff on here again.

 

ps: I'll try call in on yours & Don's room when I get a break in the trading day, will be nice to make your aquaintance!

Thanks for the post Anna Maria ¡¡ , you do not disturb here.. please feel free to interact as much as you want, very pleased to have you here sharing this nice setup with us...

 

This setups are the most near to my M`s trades where you have this divergences and false break outs happening on the extremes... they are quite relaible patterns and work pretty nice... the ideal is looking a higher time frame for the overall trend and taking this "counter" on the smaller tf...

 

well Anna-Maria, hope we get to see you on the rooms ¡¡ thanks for inputs, cheers Walter.

I am adding some nuances to our trades... let me remember you that I still dont trade forex... I am a futures trader, (now taking some vacations from trading ) and trying to adapt all my knowledge to this forex market... you may notice on the next month or so I will be exploring many alternatives... once I get decided for one I will try to be consitent on the choosen one...

 

Any way as some told me I could create a wikipedia of setups jejeje... well just trying to see whats best for me in forex... :p and doing the process public...

 

Ok this nuance or maybe a diferent setup uses a very singular bollinger of an ma... it shows very well if we are in chop or momentum... having momentum present, you are set to take a nice simple trend trade...

 

I decided to make video explaining this... any suggestions are very welcome ¡¡ cheers Walter

Junior sent his latest hotshot trade into our in-box earlier. To be honest, looking across the canvas, he had the pick of the crop setting up off his trigger.

 

He chose the EUR v/s Yen due in part to it's major supply zone of the past week & the 15m candle trigger. But any one of a few pairs would have delivered in this late NY session execution.

    • ...hallucinates.... Student: “What if we gave the monkey LSD?” Guru: “The monkey already did LSD”
    • 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. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
