Syndicate
Intro

Hi phil and members!!
I just joined the site today. I'm from Australia and moving to Vietnam in a couple of months. I'm currently trading fulltime but not profitably. I demoed for 6mths and have been trading the last 4mths live. I had a great first month live swing trading using bounces off confluence. But then I lost my discipline after setups became few and far between and have been struggling ever since. I'm back to demoing until I can build my confidence back up again to go live. Look forward to interacting with everyone and learning to become profitable consistently.
Cheers

Hello James,
I notice you slipped the word 'confluence' into your intro. Are you a DiNapoli student?
Cheers.

Hi Graham
No mate!! I use it in reference to having a number of factors coming together at a certain price area. For example having price bounce off a fibbo,a moving average,and a previous swing high/low at the same area gives me more confidence that price will hold and reverse to continue with the current trend. Thats what I call confluence.
I hope that makes sense
cheers

Makes perfect sense. DiNapoli uses it in the context of 38 and 61 fib retracements coming together to provide support /residtance and used as leading indcators.
Cheers.
