    the tricky part about trading is trying to determine which time frame the recent market action is happening in

    So you are telling me each time you place a trade, you are not predicting direction ? then what are you doing if you aren't predicting it to go down when u go short ? or predicting it will go up when u go long ?

    trading is not perfect so should have closed when you told me to....

    but never trust the market especially forex...my trade may still work wont give much benefit and that is the problem in trading everyone is eventually right.

    it may break the days high and reverse...true to form

    in my method that last up swing above the day's high should not have happened.

    trying to find out why that happened but so far... ZILCH

    got it....

    found out why it went up...

    missed a tiny signal that said it would do that....

    easy to see it after the event

    smart too late
