trading for myslef getting ready for going live. reduced leverage and trying to enter with as small risk as possible. today was very choppy day, which chopped me 4 times in a row. losing total 100 pips, but then made a good short for 150 pips and brought everything back and up. for myslef ended all this demo for 34.5% total. another 8-9 % month.
I am not trading demo to show anymore as it is pointless and will only show live results now.
Just working on reducing risk per trade when it is possible. risked 20-30 pips per trade. last one was short from almost the top to 94.00.
I guess there will be one more demo week for mylksef and then live.

If you are still trading oil let me know. I love trading oil and use Pivots, Price action as king and a few other things. Oil is different than the currencies and has a few things about it, I'm sure your seeing. At any rate if you want to trade some hit me up. Skype: nazz31

FXtraider, Hi. Yes, I am still trading oil. Getting ready to go live. Waiting for confirmation that money arrives and password and working oon reducing risk. Past couple days were quite crazy especially Friday. I went long when price started closing at Thursday high but stop weas small. 30 pips. Then it started dropping and my platform stopped working for 10 min.

huge gap.

Gap basically filled now. Asia market in 1.5 hours.
Bulls:
I got a 94.50 Buy zone with some PA off that previous daily res and also a 50% of the upmove fib.
Bears: A retracement back to the daily 21 EMA which overlaps with the daily central pivot point at 97.10 is a red area I have. Before that however is the weekly pivot at 96.74. So the zone is 96.70 - 97.35, looking for some Price action there with Time of day being utilized, and looking for change of trends within the 15minute on market opens.
Mondays are Mondays, best to take your pips instead of try and scale.. basically a scalper day, even for FX IMHO.
Cheers

I see what support level you are looking at, but are you waiting for some confirmation to buy or just set order there or enter manually as soon as level reached?
Jul 11, 2011 at 01:25
Depends on time of day and price action for me. So if we slam down there hard, I'd be looking for a confirmation trade after a pullback fib for a long (HL). If we put down there, getting aroun volatility coming in, a 1m setup PA/green off that level with a short stop is an option. Depends on the time of day and what minor S/R the London market produces.So far price isn't moving much, but any first attempt at the CPP deserve a short using the same parameters, as well as 15m Pinbars.

Obviously the bounce off Daily M1, 50% of the up move on the 4hr chart and 8am in Chicago (9am NY) the Oil big boys are now in. 15m Bullish engulfer, hourly pin bar. Good enough to get BE here and hope the stock market at 9:30AM doesn't take turn it back to the down side.

Here is a breakdown of the trade:
* Long at support, 15m Change of trend at support level on daily. Did not quite touch weekly S1, but hit daily M1 pivot at 9am (Oil Market opening)
* Stop set to BE now, looking for an initial target of 95.50, and a final target of the weekly central pivot point.
Charts: Left (15m), Middle (Hourly with daily pivots), Right (4hr with weekly pivots). I use the daily chart as the guide typically though, so it's to the left of the one I flip out the 5m and 1m for more precise entries, exits sometimes.
