  4. Sure if it's going up there then why not BUY it now?

    you dont know if it is going up there or if it isnt. he also needs to know his risk/reward defined and his stop area. predicting price isnt possible which is also speculating. rolling the dice with good RR makes sense because it may or may not get there but if it has a clear road, it's worth the roll.

  7. What if it does not get down to 1749 in the next n period?

    Do we have Plan B?

  8. But surely that is what TA is all about, helping a trader to PREDICT where the price might go?

    Why not place the trade right now?

    If it gets above 1197.7 I would enter long to try 1201.1 and stop at 1196.4. I'm not sure if that answers the question
