Ahoy! There is money to be made and lost here! 🤦♂️😂
I'm short with with an affordable loss. Others may wish to go long with an affordable loss.
It's not about how right you are but how much you limit your loss if you're wrong.
This is a nice one for new traders to experiment with on a paper trading account. 👊
Trading is a strange activity i.e. you can't...
USDJPY H4 - Arguable HS here, support has marginally be broken, but we are seeing rejections just below that price, fairly slow/tame markets at the moment, but I'm sure this will spice up as we move into the NA session with the labour data at 13:30.
Nobody except me talks openly about losses. So here I go again: can you take the loss?
USTECH is at a nice position. You absolutely cannot 'know' what it will do. All gurus who make predictions are wrong. They cannot and do not own the future. I never make predicitions.
It's either the loss is affordable, in order to gain or it isn't.
The markets are there...
I've often seen head and shoulders patterns that take on strange shapes. It is not common to find a very neat head and shoulder pattern.
Well this one caught my eye. It's a weird one. On the left is three humps combining into the tradtional shoulder. On the right is some kind of shoulder that doesn't appear well formed on 3D time frame, though more clearly...
This is on the daily time frame. Nobody can predict where price will go or how far it will go in any direction.
This means that if one is shorting or going long on this position, one has to expect losses. I always keep losses at the forefront of all my posts.
I cannot predict what will happen next. People often ask me for targets. I don't do targets.
This...
Well, this is one to watch. This is a 30 min trend following setup. There are no targets.
NOTE: only about 20% of all traders are true trend-followers. Trend following is very difficult and far more risky than other forms of trading. There are serious losses involved if anyone follows this developing trend. You have been warned.
Everybody likes it simple. Well, this is a tough one.
As I promote radical transparency in trading, I'm also showing the reality - how difficult it is in making trading decision, and controlling loss. It is a waiting game, and about avoiding FOMO. Those who do not know what FOMO is, should stop trading instantly.
There are losses involved in this position -...
This is would be a late entry short if one decides to go in now.
If one cannot take the loss, stay out! You've been told. In other words if you lose your money, sue yourself.
I do not avoid the issue of losses. I'm going to bring it up more and more - as it is the main thing to be controlled in all trading. Any arguments about that?
Did I say 'controlled loss'. Yes I did! This is also known as a stop loss - for those who wish to short, and can afford it.
If one cannot take the loss, stay out! You've been told. In other words if you lose your money, sue yourself.

With all the added pressure on the currency market due to corona virus, Bitcoin is set to sail.
I predict that most economies are going to tank a lot further yet also.
It is not wise to buy yet, wait for all the "dumb money" to buy, get wiped out by market makers, then buy.
See how easy it is to see stop losses, do you not think that big institutions can't see...
No point letting this trade turn into a looser now. Two lower highs created, so some structure to help create a logical place to move the stop too. Stop will be now at 1.46825. Worry free trade now, let the market go where it wants on this pair now.
Updates to follow.
The video shows a contracting wedge into a zone of congestion. This is sometimes a reversal pattern.
I make no predictions. I explain carefully about losses and risk management of this situation.

In this screencast I show some of my positions which are mirrored on my live account. I say that blowing up Tradingview paper accounts is a good thing. The present account has not been blown up for about a year, which is much better than before. I used to blow up an paper account every 3 to 6 months before. It's a very safe space to gain experience, to fail...
A doji was formed around a strong resistance line on the 4hr time frame. I am comfortable that a drop will occur and will I hold unto this position until it reaches the 50% Fibonacci line. In which I will conclude if this position has potential to move further down.
My stop loss is above the resistance line.
My view on this pair is a short in the long term but for now I am expecting two ways, If the trend line is respected, I will set a buy till it hits my target of 0.79960 levels. I will then wait for a short if doesn't breakthrough the 0.77100 levels.
