Well I've gone back to being naked. I guess you cant call it completely naked. However I have no predicting indicators on the chart. Just one that logs price action and another that draws a close line from the prev day. No moving averages or oscillators just price action entries. One of these days I will be able to remove the price action indicator but for now I find it helpful. It is set to only show Pin Bars (PB) and Inside Bars (IB). Here is a look:

Well its been awhile since I wrote an entry. Basically there's been nothing new to write about until now. Today I've "taken the plunge" so to speak and I've stripped my charts clean of indicators. I have been doing this long enough now, that I actually can visualize the many different setups I have become accustomed to without actually having all the indicators loaded. Other than price, all I'm left with now is a custom fib retracement tool, hand drawn trend-lines and horizontal support/alert lines,

Here is a snapshot of the pairs I trade loaded in an Overview profile, and a full screen of one of the charts:

EDIT: (well that lasted a little over 24 hours. It was a good swim however, there are a few Indicators that I have decided to put back on. Henkin Ashi candlesticks, because I got so used to them over the years and on Oanda charts I prefer then to regular candles. A 233 EMA helps keep me oriented in time and space. And the Gann Hi-Lo Activator servs as a trailing stop. All-in all it is still a much lighter setup than my old setups.)

Welcome back to another addition of my forex musings on the internet. Today I would like to discuss my current chart setup. I went through many revisions in order to make it much easier to read and to use the indicators I really do use. This give me the opportunity to focus on a few indicators and the time to read about and understand them more. Here, have a gander...


I'm going to keep my blogs brief, considering it takes less than six seconds to capture the average internet peruser's attention...

A little about my trading style; I mostly scalp and swingtrade using a basic woodiesCCI setup. My favorite trade setups include hidden and regular divergences, the hook or hook from extreme, and the cci slingshot- of course all these can be traded in some sort of combination; for example: slingshot on the hourly, divergence on the 30m and 15m chart, while 15m and 5m are confluence'ing (starting to go in the same direction).

Hello and welcome to my blog. Over the next days, weeks, months, and maybe years I will be providing you with my thoughts on the markets, pairs, and general sentiment about the world markets to share with my fellow travelers. Some days we will have other items of interest added just to expand our minds even more.

I hope those of you who will follow me through my journey will laugh, cry, and laugh so hard you will cry. I will mix humor and serious commentary so your eyes do not glaze over with boredom and hopefully keep you coming back. I will utilize different multimedia experience. Some days there will be just text, some days, videos and even a mix thrown in for an interactive experience.

About me...by day I am an unlicensed professional in the architecture industry for the past 8 years. At night I like to follow the financial markets and trade on the side in addition to working on my higher education endeavors. I have been involved with stocks in some capacity for over 8 years and am approaching 2 years involved with Forex. I have some experiences with mutual funds but mainly with single stocks.

Thanks for taking time to read my post and please check back for more. I am here to have fun and I want you to have fun too.

Well I'm just sitting here watching the hockey game and reflecting on yesterday's great trades..... It's time to get setup for tonights sessions. I usually try to at least be around for the Asian/Euro and London/US overlaps. Lately I have been trying to hard to sit through all of Asia all the way through the US Lunchtime break. I can only manage that 1 or 2 days a week. So anyways lets take a look at where we are today after yesterdays moves.

We started off the week with this chart: (Please see notes on the image)



Then after a great moves, (which were right in-line with the analyze above!) we wound up here, sometime around 9:00am or so EDT. :



It is now a nearing 9:30pm EDT and here is our updated study: (Note I have altered my chart templates a bit :) I hope the new color scheme suits the eyes a bit better)
