Instrument EMD. RTH chart only. I start trading after 30 min of open.
I let the market to cool down a little.
I plan to catch part of the move from line to line. Zone to zone.

Lines on chart :

- pivot points.
- daily high, low and midpoint.
- 30min opening range / initial balance.
- todays open.

I like to see lines to form zones ( confluence ) like on the Fridays chart that chart S1-Low, PP - high of day and
Initial balance high - PP. These are good trade locations and targets.


Why do you want to quit now,
when you are learning to succeed?

Keep on sharing your screen shots,

like RDK91 said there are several others
who trade for a living for a long time,
could give you some pointers,
every now and then....

but they won't do it every session
for sure....

Don't quit K?

Warm Regards

There are only three elements you need to go
to the next level, K?

1--To be half way decent in boasting about trading successfully,
you need a 3 and/or a 5 min chart, TO START OUT....

And a longer time frame to STAY IN THE TRADE,
to capture what the market would give.... K?

Otherwise, the zigzag would wipe you out,
right and left, leaving you only frustration to cope with,
at the end of the session, K?

The 1min chart is way too jerky to represent any tradeable signal.

2--To include MOMENTUM SIGNAL INTO YOUR CHARTING

3--To include VOLUME SIGNAL

NOW YOU HAVE :

1--DIRECTION OF BUY/SEE

2--The SPEED in the process

3--The QUANTITY moving the mass at any given time
that your chart tries to measure....

Do it, and show us what it looks like
in your new chart, K?

DON'T EVER QUIT....

THERE IS NOTHING EASIER, NOR
ANYTHING THAT IS MORE FRUSTRATING
THAN TRADING.... LOL

Regards

The best advise i can give for HO and RB is to be careful, these instruments can move extremely fast and are not very liquid.
