imo, if anyone day trades they should only trade breakouts

i dont always follow that but i try

have to agree. breakouts are my # 1 setups too. but I like reversals because they can be very powerful.

Yeah, I think that a good trader can make a little dough just trading "breakouts" and " breakout failures"

i was reading what someone posted on another thread about s/r not working - here is part of the post

[ cunparis,
I disagree with you 100%
Indicators are great. I highly recommend everyone embrace them. Forget S/R, it's quack nonsense.
I have been trading for many years and I can tell you S/R is meaningless and it just doesn't work.]

well, im not sure that i would believe s/r doesnt work - i trade with silvestor17 and this morn before the open we exchanged our s/r levels - this is what i gave him
1113.75
1107.00 critical level
1101.00
1091.25 critical level
1081.25
the levels not in bold are minor levels

go look for yourself and see where the market found resist and support this morn on the es

my point is - i believe you should use all the tools available to you and s/r is one of them - after all , price previously turned there for a reason

and here is a pic of the tf's s/r for today - im using a beta s/r on the tf - nice retrace on support

I agreen S/R should be an important part of anyone's trading imo. You don't have to search for it. It's just there! You can see it. It's obvious.

After all, it's what you learn AFTER you know it all, that counts!

good grief - whatda is going on

today was not just a doji, today was one heck of a doji - the last two candles have formed a 'bearish doji star pattern'

albeit not an extremely strong bearish pattern but still a bearish pattern

most candle guru's im sure would call this a 'sell-if'

sell-if you got the stones
