Re: Reading Charts in Real Time

I know this thread is predominantly about real-time trades, but instead I would like to post my start of day game plans.

Any shorts initiated in the R zone will be held with bigger targets and scale out less aggressively (using 1/4ths). Any longs in the zone on the 240m chart will scale out with 2 targets. Anything outside of those zones is strictly scalps with all in/all out. Ideal play for me is to short rallies into the R zone.

Re: Reading Charts in Real Time

I guess you did not like the animated avatar and tried to have only the stationary part.
It looks fuzzy so here is a clear one.
When you convert a .gif file to .jpg the resolution drops (sometimes) and the picture becomes fuzzy.
It botherd me more than you probably.
Since I haven't found an ATTACHMENT option in the PM section I had to clutter this thread once more.

I liked the animated ones, but every time I would try to read the thread, I felt a stroke coming on, so I went to the stationary avatar. Thanks for your help.

Best Wishes,

LOL, I just noticed this earlier today. Luckily for you, most of the questions I think are just about answered.

Came and went? Or just getting warmed up? EU's has taken quite a beating since December. It almost deserves a chance to stand up and catch its breath before taking the knock out punch.

Sounds real-time to me ... I look at monthly charts at the beginning of each month to re-introduce myself to the larger picture. Prep work is an integral part of making decisions to risk your money in real time. Post away, MIdK!

Re: Reading Charts in Real Time

Current look at the 6J (JPYUSD futures) which trade inversely to the USDJPY spot pair ...
