Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = GBP Daily & Weekly below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

The weather has been fantastic over recent days and I do believe it may be the arrival our overdue trends. It is always great to find you have had a profit throughout the day and many of you will be recording record pip counts over this last couple of weeks. What is the most pips you have had in a MONTH ? Can you get that again in a WEEK ? when you do can you get the same in a DAY ?

Time stands still for no man and at this time of the year, it is with some sadness I remember the guys we left behind during the Falklands War in 1982, Guys R.I.P. Always remembered. Where did those 30yrs go ?

We looked at the GBP a couple of blogs ago and we had made a profit as the cross showed a Bullish move, most of us got stopped out as the pullback started as a text book flag and we awaited a signal to add to our positions. The signal never came and after a brief pause it continued to show Bearish, which in turn stopped everybody out of their positions.

Lets look at the WEEKLY Chart

It is easy to see Price being squeezed between the WVI and the drawn Support line. We recently saw a false breakout above the WVI and price has now returned below. What will happen when we reach Support ? A Breakout ? Which way ?

Lets look at the Daily Chart

On this chart you also see Price between the DVI and the drawn Support line. After hitting Support, Price makes a neat Bullish move to the DVI and then consolidates (Yellow Box) During this period the DVI is tested on occassion before making a Breakout above the DVI. This is where many made a profit before being stopped out on the pullback which has continued back below the DVI and may keep going until Support is reached.

This all said, on reaching Support we will have a Higher Low and in turn could send Price back into another Bullish move. 

Have you got room to reach target before Price reaches Support, if not you would be better waiting to see Price make its next move, so stand aside and enjoy the weather.

If there is something you really want to do, make your plan to do it. Otherwise, you'll just regret it forever.

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = GBPSEK Weekly below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

I spent an hour last night writing a blog, only for it to dissapear in the cloud somewhere, when i pressed save & publish. Interestingly, now 24hrs later what has happened.

I had said that we all enjoyed good profits during Mondays trading and that we should not be too surprised if today we saw profit taking and a possible pullback. When I awoke this morning that was certainly the case, however be early evening things had turned around and we were seeing another 2/3's of yesterdays profits.

It is very important that we manage these trades as per your trading plan and not cut corners or become greedy. If i had moved my stops too close to yesterdays price, I would have been stopped out of certain trades that eventually turned around and produced further gains.

Followers of the recent blogs will be in profit if you followed and took the recent trades.

GBPSEK     15,000+

GBPAUD     900+

EURGBP     600+

AUDUSD     700+

GBPCHF     400+

USDNOK     3,000+

EURUSD     400+

USDDKK     1,750+

All in all over 22,000 pips in play.

Most of the above trades have multiple positions and are risk free and all has been achieved using one of our "Breakout" strategies.

My next layer of trades that have just triggered or are about to, are the JPY crosses, these have yet to establish and make there breakouts. EURJPY, CHFJPY, CADJPY, NZDJPY, AUDJPY, SGDJPY. Check your Day charts and see which you favour for a breakout.

Can GBPSEK reach 13.000 ? lets look at the WEEKLY chart.

Have we had a breakout ?

Will previous "Resistance" prove too much ?

Has the "Trend" changed ?

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = NOR Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

I hope you had a great Bank holiday weekend and took some time out. I attended a yearly reunion and caught up with some Army pals for a drink or 2 and told lots of stories. 30yrs ago we were somewhere towards the Falklands on a ship in the South Antlantic, having been sent due to our Arctic training in Norway each year. Norway is a fantastic country so clean and friendly and they get snow in abundance. Most people think of sking as downhill, well it can be as exciting going up the hills and cross country, this is called "Langlauf".

As I mentioned before, we are begginning to see some Breakouts, (About time I hear you say) This morning I was triggered Long into the NOR.

NOR Daily

The Trend, Support, Squeeze are Bullish and Price has Broke out, however Uncle Bob's Cat has been meowing for some time and may want a rest. We saw Price break out of the squeeze and then out of a previous Resistance. We had a signal 3 days ago, yet the fruit has not yet rippened to the colour we like. It could be aggressive and the candles a little wicky, however the COE are stacked in our favour. Those conservative amongst you will await confirmation of Breakout and then a pullback before entering. Beware your target is met prior to RN 6.0000.

The market has been kind in reward of our patience of late and our GBP crosses have smiled.

EURGBP     300+

GBPAUD     700+

GBPCHF     150+

GBPSEK     4,000+

GBPUSD     50+

Did you read and act on the last blog ?

Good luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity, bad luck is what happens when lack of preparation meets a challenge.

Fri, 27 Apr 2012 01:37:00 -0700 St Georges Day - GBP http://j9jdm.posterous.com/st-georges-day-gbp http://j9jdm.posterous.com/st-georges-day-gbp

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = GBP Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

Monday came and went on a day when not as many people who should, celebrated St Georges Day. The National day of England normally gets passed over by the quite English who wonder what ball the fuss is about on St Patricks Day or Independance Day ????.

It is coincidental that the GBP has been showing signs of strength of late and may well be on your watch list. I am already risk free and with profit with my GBP Long and am now looking to add to my trade, will we see more strength and maybe a BOB ?

GBP Daily

I hope there is not too much clutter on the above chart, remembering Price is our No 1 indicator. Price has just broken the Support/Resistance line on the chart, why is a key area. Price is also above the DVI.

I have also drawn a box on the chart to show the recent "Consolidation" area we have been stuck in since last September and you will see that price may have made its move.

I too have shown the recent "Trading" range that we have been in since mid December.

If you add to this, Price above WVI & DVI, Uncle Bob's cat has winked twice, Medium & Long Term bias is Bullish, we are building a strong COE.

My only resivation is recent weakness in momentum, which may well be normal after the recent move up since the 16/4 and this could be our opportunity to enter the trade.

Having looked at my basket i see plenty of the GBP fruit and must be careful not too over fill with the same produce.

A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.

Wed, 25 Apr 2012 17:24:00 -0700 Breakout, Get In Not Out. http://j9jdm.posterous.com/breakout-get-in-not-out http://j9jdm.posterous.com/breakout-get-in-not-out

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = NZDCHF Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

With so many to choose from, which strategy do you favour ? Do you chop and change or do you find your niche and learn it inside out ?

A recent poll we carried out on our members showed the majority of money made on a strategy was with "Breakouts" When I was told this I chose to stop jumping from one sttategy to another and then back again. I decided to clear my charts and refocus on "Breakouts & Pullbacks"

Dynamic Trader Members will have seen how, where and when a "Breakout" works and will have relevant tools in their lockers to try and avoid a "False Breakout"

Think of it this way, if you keep the top on a tube of toothpaste and roll the tube up from the bottom, the time will come when you will get a "Breakout" at its weakest point. The "Breakout" will normally happen with some force and you will be left with toothpaste everywhere.

With Price being our number 1 indicator, all charts will have "Support & Resistance" as Price consolidates, and when Price breaks these areas we have a "Breakout". Even if you miss the initial "Breakout",  Price normally pulls back before continuing its journey.

Lets look at a possible target, first on the Weekly Chart and then the Daily.

NZDCHF Weekly

The trend is down and Price has popped its head above the WVI. We have Resistance above from the last time Price played with the WVI. The more Conservative ones would wait for price to pass below the WVI and then look for a Short Entry. Is their room to hit your target before price hits the WVI or the RN ? Lets look at the Daily chart for a closer look.

NZDCHF Daily

Shorter term we can see that Price is currently above the DVI, but might be looking for the comfort of the DVI as it has not been near it for some time. I have drawn a weekly trend line on the chart and you will see that Price has fallen below this long term trend line. At the same time I have drawn a "Support" line and at current, Price is deciding whether or not to move below. If this happens we have plenty of space to hit our target before the DVI and the RN is even further below. I would look to use your Dynamic Trader Toolkit on previous Support to determine your entry and confirm Target will be hit prior to any future support. With your trigger set, relax, sit back and enjoy your day.

Genius is the ability to put into effect what is in your mind.

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

So much can change when you have some time out. Those of you who are members will be experiencing another level of support with the TTMV and new look "Trend Analysis", which covers Breakouts, Trends ST,MT & LT, Pullbacks and Expected Ranges. Together with the new Facebook page and Twitter updates, you really do have the tools to trade with the SMART money and be in the 5%.

Those of you who want to join as a member or consider being trained "The Dynamic Trader" way, please click on this link. Give me more information

I have been laid up the last 4 weeks, in hospital for a week having my ankle reset and taking numerous tablets. I am in plaster but off the tablets so am looking to get back with my regular updates.

One trade I have been in and am risk free is the AUDNZD, so i thought it would be a good one to start with. I recently added to the position, yet price has pulled back at present. The trade has been written about and discussed recently and there was a possibility we may have seen a change of TREND.

If we look at the bigger picture with the WEEKLY Chart.

Price has been crossing the WVI and is currently below giving us a Bearish outlook. If we were to get a close above the WVI then we would have to assume a change in our bias. It is normal for price to pass below Support and pullback to use Support as resistance. Lets watch for confirmation at this critical time. If we get a move down then those consevative amongst you will await a break of the recent low before entry.

Lets look at the Daily Chart

The DVI is further away from price compared to the WVI and you will see I drew a common dogleg looking line in the centre of the chart. It is common for price to move in this manner.

Price has after deliberating, moved down before pulling back and yesterday provided an interesting candle called a "Gravestone Doji". This is a reversal sign and could indicate the start to the 3rd leg of our dogleg diagram.

If it is then those consevative will await the break of our recent low before entry.

With the candles looking quite "wickey" we must wait for the day to finish and review then.

Below is the video alerting the initial trade opportunity. You can also get your FREE Trend Trading mentoring by filling out the details below the video.

Where did the week go ? The start of the week offered plenty of promise, however as the week closes, not a lot of the trades have materilised. Where have all the trends gone ? has been the comment from a lot of people I speak to. You have to remember that the market will do what the market wants to do and it will always be right. You must stick to your trading plan and learn to be focused on what you are doing. You must be consistant in your trades and keep acting on your signals.

80% of your funds will come fron 20% of your trades, thats trading !

Our blogged trade we have been following this week has turned against us yesterday and today so far.

EURCZK Daily

Will price return to the trend ? Only time will tell, the DVI is giving resistance from above.

The worst mistake investors make is taking their profits to soon, and their losses too soon.

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = EURCZK Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

I hope you all had a great week end and treated your Mothers to a great day yesterday. Spring seems to be in the air with some rays of sunshine and the daffodils in flower.

The JPY crosses have been returning plenty of profits over recent time, however they remain cautious due to the possible intervention of the bank of japan, as has happened on more than one occassion over the last year. If you put all your eggs in the JPY basket, you could lose an uncalculated loss quicker than you have made it. Be warned and trade to your rules. Read Zaheers blogs regards the JPY.

Last week I highlighted the EURCZK, if you were following the blog, you will now have been triggered short into the trade.

Price is below the DVI, having broke support and retested it as resistance, there has been two occassions as shown on the chart for you to have considered entry.

The long term trend and bias is Bearish providing the momentum and shorter term is in agreement.

We have some support around 24.300 and the RN 24.000 below, with 1R before this point.

EURCZK Daily

As TREND traders, you may well know it started with the "The Turtles", I found an interesting video by Russell Sands who was one of the Turtles. The video is a little long at 1hr 23min so you may want to watch it in one of your quiter moments, but try to watch it. You will hear many of the rules that Dynamic Traders has taught you being mentioned in the video.

You know when your right when the other side starts to shout.

Wed, 14 Mar 2012 16:45:00 -0700 EUR CZECH Mate ! http://j9jdm.posterous.com/eur-czech-mate http://j9jdm.posterous.com/eur-czech-mate

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = EURCZK Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

After a couple of blank days on the analysis front, some crosses have made their move, or so it looks. I have been triggered into a few trades since last night, which are in minimal profits at present. One trade that triggered Tuesday was the EURCZK on a Breakout strategy. Lets take a look.

EURCZK Weekly

The trend is down, Price is below the VI at present. We have a support line drawn under price and the VI was offering Resistance from above. Price tests the VI before passing through and produces a double top in a downtrend, above the VI. Price returns towards the trend and passes below the VI, before using its support as resistance. As price passes below its low, we are offered a Shorting opportunity. 

EURCZK Daily

We can now see more clearly, price using the VI as Support one minute and Resistance the next. A break of the low provided us a Shorting opportunity. We will watch with interest to see if the trade develops.

If you spend more than 14 minutes a year worrying about the market, you've wasted 12 minutes

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = EURSEK Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

One of the problems traders have when there is not alot going on is "Itchy Fingers", they feel there is a need to be pressing a button on their trading accounts and "Trading" something, anything....................

Having got a blank on my analysis over the weekend as regards breakouts, there was a little flicker of Maybe with a couple of the crosses. One of these was the EURSEK.

EURSEK Daily

You will see Price has been bearish of late and is below the VI, suggesting if there is a trade it would be a Short.  More recent price has headed back to find comfort with the VI. Our tools gave us a possible long trade ???? Itchy Fingers may have taken the trade, but why ??

Our bias is Short, we have the VI and RN above giving Resistance and 1R would not be met before these obsticles. 

We are better waiting and watching Price make its move. A BOB below Support would be our preferred method.

Itchy Fingers ? Turn your computer off and go for a walk.

You know you are right when the other side starts to shout !

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = NOK Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

Having had our weekend to make our analysis and look for opportunities, we do have some crosses looking as if they may be close to a BOB. As we wait for these to come into play, many a friend has been sking over the last month or two so i thought we would look at the NOK.

OK enough of the snow, I meant the NOK Daily chart.

Price has produced Higher "High's" and Higher "Low's" and is at an interesting position.

The Bulls have been in control for a while overall, yet price currently is below the VI, giving a Bearish bias. Having produced a recent Higher Low, we are now looking to retest the VI.

Will price move back above the VI and look towards another Higher High ?

Will price retest the VI and use it as Resitance having moved down through it, as Support ?

If it does the latter, we will see a change in its recent trend and a finish to its Higher Lows.

A retest of the VI and a move below the recent support may provide a BOB and Short entry opportunity ?

A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing !

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = AUDJPY Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

With the market yet to decide which way it will move for further than a couple of days, I was recently triggered into the AUDJPY, so lets take a quick look.

What is our COE ?

Price above the VI, Price has squeezed towards the VI which acted as resistance before breaking through it and then used it as support. Since that time we have had further opportunities to enter this cross which continues to rise.

90.000 looks as if it could give resistance, ensure you are risk free prior to reaching this point.

Momentum short, medium and long are bullish.

How will it see the week out ?

Tue, 28 Feb 2012 03:37:00 -0800 CHF Fondue http://j9jdm.posterous.com/chf-fondue http://j9jdm.posterous.com/chf-fondue

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = CHF Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

With an extra day in February this year, I will be staying indoors tomorrow incase any females out there plan to use their once in 4 year option of proposing. We are flooded with options each day of going long or short in the markets and thank the stars we don't have to wait as long as the females do for their option.

You will all be aware by now that nothing is guaranteed with the market and the market is ALWAYS right. In recent years we have made very nice gains with the trends in the 1st quarter, however this year with all the confusion with the Greek debts, westill await.

What we must always do is look for a number of COE and stack them in our favour. When our mechanical systems alert us to a trade, we must then put our training to use and decide whether you are happy to take the RISK involved in entering the trade.

In Switzerland, Fondue is Cheese Fondue

Cheese fondue is a traditional Swiss dish that originated in the Alps, mainly in and around the canton of Valais (French) / Wallis (German). Contrary to popular view outside of Switzerland, it did not originate as an après-ski snack; it’s a hearty peasant dish, using ingredients that were available in the winter: cheese, wine, coarse peasant bread. And since it a traditional dish, it never went ‘out of fashion’ or ‘died out’, as you might think it did if you live in the UK or the US or any place that had the Great Fondue Craze of the ’70s, when a fondue set was a ubiquitous wedding present. The cheese used melts easily.

Our recent cross CHF has also melted away and it has served us well with over 800 pips profit, lets look to where it is today.

We can see the double top at resistance and the decline of price since then, the trend is down and the conservatives would rather wait for a break of the main support as shown on bottom of the daily chart. price has paused for breath before continuing down and there is still plenty of room for profits before the VI or support of our "Fondue Pot"

How many COE do you have in your favour from the tools provided to you ?

Once you have listed these, would you take the trade ?

If the answer is yes, how many other people in every 10 would agree with you ?

As another week goes by in a slow "trending" market, we are yet to see the gains we normaly have seen at this time of the year. This is due to the ongoing Euro zone problems that continue to hold the front pages of our newspapers. This reason is stopping the trends devoloping and continuing their momentum. There are still opportunities to be had, but gains are smaller and a lot of looking is required.

One of these opportunities is the CHF, Lets look at the Monthly

Price is below the VI and has found resistance around a key Fib number after doing a pullback. Will price continue to fall away and return to the trend or could we see a head and shoulders pattern form over the coming weeks ?

Lets take a look at the Daily chart.

Price, our main indicater is above the VI and we have a cluster of COE in our area. Fib Support level, RN & VI. If we can break through these, then maybe we could return to the trend. Ther is a long way to fall to next support. Add to your watch list.

I came across some key steps with regards being a disciplined trader and preached by Mark Douglas, please read them and let is know if they have been a help.

I will not be posting for the next 7-10 days due to some appointments I have to keep, so good luck in your trading.

 

Mark Douglas - The Disciplined Trader - Summary

The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be kindled.

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

Are you suffering PAIN at the moment or are you experiancing Gains in your account ???

Can you emotionaly trade £1 the same as £1,000 or £10,000 0r £100,000 if not, why not ?

You will never know the outcome of your trades, only what risk you are prepared to take when you enter them.

Your COE will highlight trades for you to take and you decide whether or not to enter based on your trading plan.

Our NZD cross has moved 70 pips in profit and we await further upwards movement after seeing Daily Bullish movement. Both our GBPNZD and EURNZD have benefitted from this move.

Continue your education of the mind.

Experiance ishelpful, but it is judgement that matters.

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

When you trade, do you "Change Your Mind ?"........... Not sure ?

To trade successfully, you WILL need to "Change Your Mind"............. Not sure ?

Watch the video below and "Change YOUR Mind"

It is always nice to wake up in the morning and see GAINS in your account after last weeks quitness in the markets.

Our NZD trade has moved strongly today (Day not finished yet) back with the trend, having explained in a previous blog that we counter acted the NZD Long with SHORTS in both EURNZD and GBPNZD, this will woork in our favour if it continues. We have plenty of clear sky on the WEEKLY chart before we hit resistance around the 9.0000 mark.

NZD Weekly

Lets watch its progress this week.

If everybody is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking !

Cut your losses and let your winners "Run", how many times have you heard this said ? Do you let your heart strings rule your decisions and not follow your rules ?

If you have followed your rules, got good COE, placed your trade and it goes WRONG...How do you feel ?

You entered the trade with the expectation to win, it never happened .......... How do you feel ?

By having placed your stop, you will have accepted the risk and will cut your losses. Move on,  find another trade and if you get profits let them runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.

We have been following the NZD & AUD, and are 300 pips up on the AUD and only 30 pips on the NZD, both crosses are currently having a breather and deciding what their next moves will be. As "Trend" traders we have to believe it will be with the "TREND" Both charts have similar traits..........................

NZD

AUD

Continue to master your mind

Good Evening / Morning Dynamic Traders

“Better to have tried and failed, than not tried at all”

Cross = AUD Daily below  (Courtesy of Advanced Get / E Signal)

We looked at the NZD on our last blog in some detail and today we are going to turn our attentions to its neighboor the AUD.

As Britain had a weekend of snow and ice, which normaly brings things to a stand still, I thought I would look at hotter climates and put you mind in the right frame to start your week. Trading is very much related to the state of your mind and when your not quite feeling with it your trading can suffer. When this happens you are better having a day away from the markets. At my house in Birmingham I have a room with multiple monitors and the walls surrounded with pictures of happy memories of days gone by, I also play music that I find relaxing, whether Classical, Rock or Pop. This all helps you being in the right frame of mind and ready to tackle the markets.

I have come across some videos which will help you in these thoughts and have posted one at the bottom of the blog, if you get the chance get hold of a copy of "Trading in the Zone" by Mark Douglas.  http://www.amazon.co.uk/Trading-Zone-Mark-Douglas/dp/0735201447

Lets now look at the AUD

Long term this cross is Bullish and 2011 saw it hitting its all time highs, price is looking on retesting these figures with around 1.1000 giving some resistance points. Price currently deciding its future around a weekly support level, having BOB from our weekly trend line.

Dynamic Traders will have had several hints of a long entry since the turn of the year and I imagine many may well be in this trade already and if so will be in profits. With the VI having been in my way, I never entered this trade till more recently and am not yet risk free.

On the Daily chart price is at the neck line of the recent "W" formation which can be seen on the chart and this coincides with a previous resistance level. If we can move through this area price should continue with the trend until our higest highs at around 1.10000 - 1.11000.

Trading In The Zone.

There are 2 kinds of people who lose money, those who know nothing and those who know everything !

Remember PRICE is your number 1 indicator, Support & Resistance is your second. Keep it simple.

Force works in a strange way, when an amount of energy develops it needs to find a way out and we get a BOB, which somtimes can be very powerful but not always. We also generaly will see the seesaw effect where as one goes down the other side goes up. I do admit to knowing nothing about Physics, even if I did learn to fly a helicopter, however these couple of facts are useful in your trading.

Lets look at the NZD, it is currently in an uptrend and showing further strength, therefore against other crosses we should find weakness. We have weakness currently in the EUR & GBP and if we ckeck our COE we could achieve profits on both sides, if you get it wrong it could lead to double losses.
