dirtydan Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/3267/chartw.gif This is such a perfect trade setup look how the stoch is also telling me I found a pretty nice entry I will add more positions at the 61.8 as well as the 50. Whoever says fibs don't work are out of they're minds. :)) I will exit half of my positions at 1.78 and let the rest ride looks good for at least 140 pips :-bd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCan Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal wow stoch, fib and clean chart you awesome dirtydan :-bd but bullish divergence, and bearish convergence sometimes make false signal, usually i combine with MACD, but Fibbo is still the best :-bd keep it coming ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only opened 2 positions on this trade because it never came back to the 61.8% fib so I opened near the 76.4 and one at the 50% level. I am really liking the stock setting(14,7,3) it seems to give a more precise picture and helps with early entries. http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/340/charty.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtydan Posted August 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal Please can u explain your startegies? I am having problem understanding it. Also your indicators. i will appreciate it. Thanks. I don't really use indicators I am using pitchforks and fibs thats basically it. Check out the picture below of the eur/usd. I bought the euro against the dollar because it boinced off the 50% fib and because it bounced off the bottom of the pitchfork. :)>- http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/5754/chartg.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydan Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal Here is the before and after of the eur/gbp trade I posted on August 12, 2009. Not a bad trade at all I took 90 pips and I think there is a alot more to fall so I am going to buy a half lot now until about .8590 then I will short again and look for an even lower target. I love forex 8-) I am also still holding my short on the usd/jpy from 97.75 :-bd Before http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/6089/chartz.gif Now http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/6231/charta.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtydan Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal Okay guys here is my first lesson on fibs and how I was taught to use them I am going to start from scratch for those that say they dont know how to fib or that just want something new to help they're present system. We might even find more relevance in the methos I am going to post. I don't really use this method to often but my wife is able to make 20 pips on a daily basis with it. 1. Open any chart on the hourly and on mt4 go to insert>gann>gann grid then draw it from a low to a higher low http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/9761/chart1.gif 2. Cut all the diamonds in half using the horizontal line your chart should look like the following http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/9761/chart1.gif 3. Now delete the gann grid but leave the lines there and notice how the price reacts to the lines. When the line is pierced by 4 pips or more price usually finds its wayto the next line and so on http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/411/chart1y.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashflow08 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal Thank you Dan. May I ask. How long would the Gann reaction lines be valid for? When do we need to make another one of those diamonds? And lastly how do we exactly trade it because im thinking its impossible to trade with so many s.r lines clustered together. Please educate. Thanks bro \m/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks bro \m/ Hey Cashflow The way my wife trades this as I understand is when a line is penetrated by at least 4 pips she will get in right then and there and she will take profit at 20 pips no matter what and she will place her stoploss on the 2nd bar from where she got in. The cool thing about this is that you always know what your stop loss is because it is the same all the time it just depends on how big you draw your grid. Think about it each diamond doesn't change its a grid each line is pretty much the same for example on the charts I posted from 1 line to another is 14 pips so I know 2 bars from where I got in will be 28 pips so I know that my stoploss will always be 28 pips and if I chose to stay in this trade until the next line wasn't penetrated that the risk to reward ratio was never bad and if I wanted to make the diamonds bigger so that each line could net me more pips all I would have to do is go from one low to a higher low or even grid at higher time frame. :-bd Let me know how this works out for you guys and I will get into more about fibs in my next post so until then guys have a good weekend \m/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirtydan Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal Ok guys its time for another lesson and this time I am going to show you how I use fibs to make a whole lot of pips. Please make sure that your fibs are set up like mine it should have -161.8%, -138.2%, 0%, 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, 76.4%, 100%, 138.2% and lastly 161.8% Look at the chart below and look at how I placed my fib from low to high but it really doesnt matter because the fibs will tell us where the price will go and the reason I say it doesnt matter is because once we fib a swing we are looking for a break of either the 0% or 100% only after this will we get into a trade because we will know where it is going to go. We know that when 0% or 100% is breached that it always at least hits the 138.2% http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/5351/yeng.gif So now that we know the price is headed up we must fib that swing from low to high. Sometimes we dont get a retrace and as soon as price pierces the 0% or 100% it will go straight to our target 1.382% fib but I only take trades that give a retrace. There are 2 reasons for that. 1. It feels safer and gives me more confidence and 2. I make a lot more money because I open 3 postions one at the 50% another at the 61.8% and the final at the 76.4%. My target for the first 2 are the 138.2% fib and the 161.8% for my last. But in the example we only got to open 2 positions 1 at the 50% and the other at the 61.8% http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/8118/yen.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydan Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Re: DirtyDan's journal What I just presented to you guys is a way to trade without indicators and to make a lot of pips but sometimes we dont even get a retrace and price goes straight to the 138.2% here are some examples http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/7573/yens.gif http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/8118/yen.gif Here is a nice trade that worked out perfect http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/8118/yen.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
