Hello, my name is Tasos , I am 20 years old and I originally come from Greece. I have been a member of Bear Bull Traders technically for four years, since 2016. However, I had to create a new account last year where I got a Lifetime membership. I began my journey of trading since I was 16, I dropped out of high school and was trading while working. I did DAS simulator for many years and had many conversations with Andrew. I failed. A lot. It would be incredible to calculate the amount of hours I spend these last four years looking at screens with candlesticks. I had to take drastic measures because of life events that caused me to leave trading to the side for a while, but it was always on mind and what I aspired to do for the rest of my life. I finished online high school and I am currently pursuing a BSc in Banking and Finance with a Minor in Financial Markets Trading, and yes there is such a thing (long way trading has come). I mainly participate and trade the FX market and have interests in commodities and basically all Macroeconomic subjects. I have come a long way from a kid knowing nothing about how this whole thing works and I am excited to see where I can reach. My goal eventually is to become a hedge fund trader or an IB. Nevertheless, whatever happens, trading is the reason I have goals in life. It has changed my life, it has taught me things about my life and made me the best version of myself. I decided to be more active in the Forums as of late since I do not have school obligations because of COVID-19 and plan to participate even more. Since I do not particularly trade stocks anymore I will be posting on FX market forum where I hope I can exchange ideas with people. Lastly, I know Andrew is a great guy and hope he remembers me and it feels good to be back and see how much the community has grown. It honestly is the best non-toxic community there is with actually smart individuals in this space. Safe trading!

There seems to be quite a bit of support at that lower red dotted line. It had a failed 123 in the 1 minute. It moved up after a topping tail doji (which tends to signify bearishness on its own), so that would mean bullish. But a topping tail doji at the bottom range usually also means there's buying pressure too. It is far from the moving averages. So all in all I don't think it's an ideal short entry imo. A better entry would be a break of that lower dotted line level.

I wouldn't have a clue what it was going to do there. Yes, generally weak, but it's chopping and stuck in a range. It has also already bounced off the low 5 times... Maybe it's going higher... not sure. I'd just wait until it cracks and closes above or below.

For your firs trade it wasn't exactly a bad idea to go long there. It did break and the close above the VWAP on the 5 and 6 min. That being said, I'm always hesitant to go long or short the opposite way of the pre-market. Also, what was your stop loss? Seems very far away. Probably should have been just below VWAP. For your second... Seems like a good entry to me. It's a bit extended, but you waited for a pull back which is good.

Just to help me shape this. What do you people want to see in terms of information? Would you rather have a breakdown of the math behind them and then show how they work in DAS, or would you like a more detailed breakdown of the actual hotkey (as ugly as they are)? I'd assume the former is better for most as it's a "concept -> application" presentation, keeping to the important bits in a concise manner. Any other hotkeys / DAS features you want me to go over, please post here. I have a list going. For this presentation there will be a new version of the hotkeys / configuration rolling out, so even if you're familiar you may want to check it out. I've also discussed with DAS on some modifications, but I'm not sure what the timeline is on those.
