1) time is 15.00 to 20.00 CET
1) it's your first discretionary trade today (you can't trade discretionary outside this system)
2) your entry and your take profit are >=10 ticks away from any pivot lines
3) you've looked at "correlated" chart (both 1 month and 15 minutes)
4) the 225-period ma is in favor by > 10 ticks
5) the 15-period ma gets crossed by price (in favor) after being on the other side >= 4 minutes
We're right near the pivot line, so I can't make the SHORT trade that I was going to make. Also, we're too oversold. The pivot line works like a magnet. It either attracts price or it repels it. Your trade cannot start too close to the pivot line, because price could always re-cross it in the other direction. While price is close to that line, it's a period of uncertainty, so you should not trade. It's as if you were to shoot at a target that is continously changing direction. We want a target that's going in just one direction, for at least 20 ticks.
