Re: Reading Charts in Real Time

Keeping my eye on some consolidation on the EUR/USD...NOTE: Jobless claims in about 30 minutes...this will likely be my last post for the week...I've been working a lot of hours at my part-time job this week and it has cut deeply into my trading hours...I've traded virtually no Tokyo's this week and have cut into my NY several days...I've changed my schedule starting next week so that my job will not interfere with my trading at all (only working Friday evenings and weekends)! Trading is my current chosen vocation/career path...that's where my time needs to be spent.

NOTE: By the way...I thought I'd share that I have an unofficial goal in the back of my head to go live with a $1,000 fxcm Micro real account at the beginning of the year (so I guess Sunday evening, Jan. 2). So, that'd be just 3 more weeks of demo trading after this one.

The long didn't get very far, but a legitimate short presented itself shortly after the breakout and jobless claims report.

That's it for me as far as posting this week. I'll be back posting full-time/real-time next week.

I just installed NT7! However, the way I use NT (merely for simple charts), I probably won't even notice most of the changes/improvements.

You trade the 15 minute chart? Doesn't that force you to sit around looking at your charts all day and over-analyze them?

For me, forex charts are generally too choppy on the shorter timeframes. I want to trade good swings.

Re: Reading Charts in Real Time

If the UJ can make it to PT3 before the end of the day, I will nominate this for trade-of-the-month!...excellent R/R opportunity off a larger degree 2b, taken off a smaller degree 123...

I wasn't planning to post until next week, but I wanted to post this...and before it reached PT3...
