Thank You Very much for share this interesting Strategy.
Btw Can you help me with this :
"high 1.5943 - low 1.5747= 0.0196
0.6*0.0196=0.01176(range)
1.5747+0.01176=1.5865(60% window) 1st target to the downside.."
From where you pick it up 1.5747 ?

simple is better & more profitable.
All The Best;

Re:Keeping It Simple Smarty(KISS) is a great way of becoming better and profitable in
trading,especially when you dont clutter your charts with a map of indicators and
objects,Manus...1.5747 was the low of that trend, which was subtracted from the high of the
trend.Thanks, mon ami...

Hi Mr. ForexGreenland,
I was reviewing your input at the Informed Trades Website and was very impressed with your
contribution.
I started Forex this year using the algorithms of the red and green lights and losing.
Lately I became curious and encouraged to attempt learning candlestick reading and the
variables that go along with it. I am writing to get help from you to stir me on the right
course at the start. Don't want to get into bad habits. Could you send me some beginning
basic information and or videos that helped you.
Thanks,
Karen
Re: From your mail,Karen, you give the impression of being a left brained trader, with words
like ''algorithm,variables,etc..''standing out in your comments.. You see, a left brain type
is stronger with figures,analytics,etc,while a right brained type is more in tuned with
words,abstracts,etc..
The candlestick reading involves identifying, interpreting and taking advantage of chart
patterns, in which it is quite subjective..like 2 different traders coming across a chart
pattern and reaching different conclusions..this is more discretionary trading than
mechanical..
anyways,to avoid bad habits, you strive to do the opposite of that which you term ''bad
habits''...for Nature habours a vacuum...like if you are fond of placing trades without a
stop loss, then you do the opposite and fix your stops while placing your trades,etc..
to be sincere,what helped me along the terrain of this frontier were books/videoes that were
bought...AND practiced. You can read all the books and videos on golf,but ..if you are not
applying them on the fields or trenches, they might not do much in effectiveness to making
you a top player in the Grand Slam...so tell me...What is your objective...in trading?

target of 1.6155 upwards ?

Time), for a 60% buy window of 1.5758..or just take both as targets?
