Sniper Forex System

Sorry if this is slightly of topic. But can anybody please explain to me the purpose of the histograms i.e. sniper trend A,B. I cannot get my head round this, e.g. on Gbp,Gpy on the 1Hr on 21 Aug you had a nice uptrend than at 19:00 sniper trend A turned red, ok here there was a bearish candle, but then the next two bars i.e. 20:00 and 21:00 were still red when you can see a clear uptrend in the Bullish candles. Anybody know why?
Another point when you highlight over these bars a value is given what is this for?
For Trend B it shows Red as an Uptrend and Blue as a downtrend and a value next to it again anybody know why this is?

I would be very grateful if someone can clear this up.

Thanks in advance
 
Can we expect long on GBP/JPY 1H later today? Since 13:00 gmt yesterday 1H guppy is still red. Can we expect blue any time today? Any suggestions?

Well done thats great.

I have been keeping an eye on the 15m chart for entries. It produces more entries and gets you in a little earlier. Seems better for these quieter markets we have had over the past few weeks. What are your thoughts on using the 15m chart?

Bonks,
I have tried the 15M chart for entries, and finally decided on the 30M. I seemed to bounce around too much on that short of TF. It is also harder to stay out of the chop on it. I will stick to the 30M.

I'm not trading GBP/JPY at the moment, but becoming more interested after reading some of the comments here.

But those of you who are trading it on the H1 - aren't you still in a short at the moment?
Wasn't there are short entry at about 16:00 yesterday at approx 155.68 ?
Now 154.20 , so you should be in a good profit with stop now at about 154.92 ?

That is your call, however, you will be going against the overall trend. If it was me, I would probably wait.

All charts were pointing upwards 1M to 1H. So not sure why do you think I'm going against the trend. I got in and so far up 40 points but still demo account. Still learning and more learning for few more weeks I guess.

Hello GumRai,
Yes, with GBP/JPY I was in at 155.76 – 2 trades, 1 still open, 1 TP at 80 (80 is a guess at the moment until I can get a better idea). Since 18 Aug (not including this one), that's 5 trades, up 193.7 pts plus a few TP trades. This is going well so far, but who knows? The next 5 trades may end down 193! But it's the long term that I'm interested in.

I'm still in yesterday's cable short – 2 trades, 1 still open, 1 TP at 75.

Bye,

I am looking at the 4H chart, and at the present time I think we are in wave 2, which should be a short correction, and then resume the downward trend. I personally only go with the overall trend, and I feel like this is not a really good trade, but that'S MHO. I am by no means telling you how to trade. You have to use your instinct. I would rather miss a trade then lose a trade. Lord knows i've lost enough as it is.

FormulaOneFan,
I misspoke on the EURUSD. You may be ok on this trade. Over the last 3 days, the trend has been up, and the last 24hours has been a correction of that trend up. At this time the trend may infact continue up, but I personally would err on the side of caution, until that can be determined. The Dollar has been getting stronger against all majors, of late. I really think that is going to continue and accelerate. Just be careful, and dont be bashfull about taking a few pips profit at any time.

I am strarting to build position,
First long entry has been much earlier, second 6370, and added below 6400.
I have treated sniper as a confirmation of my earler entries based on Delta timing.

Trading just sniper I would wait for a poss spuback, likely to occur before or around the US opening
Shorts are not my consideration for time being.
Longs have a biGGGGG yes!!!!
Things to consider, that this is just a begining of a swing to the upside on H4 and H1. With equties in the bacground one has to be very careful and keep protecting the profit.

It cant be Obama's announcement to re-appoint Bernanke as Fed chief, pretty much a non event news item. Expected anyway and arguably what's so great about re-appointing the man credited with steering the economy out of recession. Who was the Fed chief that was at the helm when the economy crashed?

I sure hope everyone that took that long trade took profits at the top.

US numbers looked good and Bernake made a statement. Was good for dollar. Possible short term change.

I didn't. I played with live account 0.20p on both GBP/JPY and GBP/USD and both of them hit the stop loss I set @40 points (pips). Giving me a grand total loss of 16 pounds.:sneaky:

I'm trying to understand what the heck happened.:mad:
