As soon as there was a break of support ( annotated 1) I took sell.
We had a golden nugget to support No.2. But my risk was comparatively lesser on this trade
than this morning trade. Reason : No.4 was a big semaphore.
Hence my target was confluence of No.3 pivot support and 2/8th Murray Math. With this trade i made my 1% today.
Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
10052Thank you for your personal feedback. I completely understand that the Orange ZZ repaints and "why" you would take the trade. Here is what Xard says https://www.screencast.com/t/F9WTHLrLLKM. So even though it repaints and price will probably continue to make lower lows you shouldn't be taking it against the orange ZZ since it was on the bottom in real time. Hopefully Xard can clear up any misconceptions about this. I know you trade it differently but I am solely talking about why Xard would take these trades since it's clearly against what hey says to do.s4jikian wrote: Wed Jan 26, 2022 2:34 am That’s why xard said to wait till the second dots.. anyway let me try to explain my take on why those trades are valid.
Let’s break it down to a couple parts..
Part 1:
So, the big semafor is on the place where you put that yellow arrow. At this point in time, the big semafor just says “hey price might go up now” and that’s all. However, if you take PA into consideration, you can see that previous semafors (circled in yellow) making lower lows and lower highs, and therefore I would have taken the sell trade too.
Part 2:
Now moving on to second part. If the big semafor was at the first yellow arrow, it WILL continue to repaint once the price has crossed below the yellow line I highlighted. However, just as above reason, the PA is still making lower lows and lower highs, and I would have taken this trade as well. Why? Price tries to break the daily open line, and got rejected off it nicely with a large down candle just after the red semafor, then continuing its downtrend. Also, take a look the the blue candles.. they have long top wicks which shows that the sellers are still going strong, stopping price from going up.
Part 3:
Now, at this point the big semafor has already repainted many times, and I hope the above explanation helps you to understand it. At this point, I personally will stop taking any trades until something is confirmed by either a breakout or any other PA stuff. The reason being price has formed a double top (highlighted line) which states that’s a decent resistance level. Just look at how everytime it touches it, it just gets rejected off with a big fat down candle.
Anyhow this is just my take on how this system works, and that’s why I mentioned previously not to use any semafors as signals. Instead, use them with other PA and trend confirmation stuff before entering. Also, the posts above this has mentioned a simulator.. maybe you can use that to help you understand better how this entire system works. Took me awhile too but still manage to get it.
This system shows you the road.. you’ll need to find a good entry/exit strategy to make this work right. I’ll suggest to start with the RSIMA on v13..
As of Right now I’m still working on my exit strategy….
Edit : I don’t know how xard manages to pull off exiting at the green dots on a sell trade.. but from a guess standpoint I think he’ll bail once the subwindow line crosses up.. or something like that
Hope this helps
Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
10053He clearly says @ After a new orange is formed...wait for the trend to change !! There is no misconception.
New orange semaphore is confirmed only after the 2nd dot or break of trend line with good momentum.
Assume the semaphores as S/D areas. Once it breaks it goes bit further away !! You will then sleep well

Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
10054One more important factor : Yesterday US30 almost moved 200% of its daily ADR.
After such a huge move it is fair to expect some sort of consolidation.
Hence you see a two way price action today with opportunities galore.

Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
10059Obviously it means that don't expect trading live to go as well as simulated. Still worth the effort though, imo
Re: XARD - Simple Trend Following Trading System
10060Please drag and drop your trade from the history in the terminal onto the chart. We can all see where you got in and out. I wish you many more zeros behind, after your number 1)
