Made a bit today selling DDD, Three D Systems Corp. I got out too early, as usual. I noticed price movement on the Daily, and looked at the 5 min and made a
ML set on a 3D on the 5 min. The terminus of the 3D on the 5 was not at a 0.886 fibo, imo.
More later. I am not sure I am trading roofer's "Beauty and Simplicity correctly. I believe roofer's comments were that "Beauty and Simplicity" was to be used on Intraday trades only, and I think that I am trying to apply the rules incorrectly. More later. There was a gap on the 1 min, but not a gap on the 5 min.
I want to thank Duane for "drawing out" my thinking on the earlier short time frame paper trading I was doing. I think that method requires too much "chasing" price in the first few minutes of the trading day, and had limited potential. I could not get consistent-enough results with the indicators I was using. Good Luck!

Right now, my next areas for the Pound are: 1.2450, 1.2415-20 and 1.2355.
Of course there is a big event at 4:30 EST - high court ruling on Brexit, which make send Cable in either direction.
I will try to post charts later.

roofer cautioned against using certain setups in longer timeframes because it forces you to take on too much risk. The setups work, but you are holding overnight, so when a trade sets up against your trade it's not in market hours.
