M5 GBPJPY - Sell Just a little cheeky one before I hit the road... It's always interesting looking back at a chart and wondering why I couldn't trade it. I couldn't trade this one earlier because it felt like I was chasing it. There are some obvious ...

M5 GBPNZD - Sell The usual GBP shenanigans went on for a couple of hours during the ECB meeting, sat through it... There was also a lot going on in this area with three weekly bottoms (ahem) one a biggish WCC and a big number, so it was a good one ...

Thanks Stevepatt, I do look at round number and also 10, 20, 50 and 80 levels. They form part of my thought process but I no longer set targets to enter or exit from them unless I have found a PASR level there (which there often is!)

It's as clear as day to me now, holding trades to my original stop loss might be good to practice discipline but not great for equity which makes it an expensive and flawed habit. I think I'm getting your point about seeing beyond the candles, it's ...

I was selling on EURNZD, I was too hasty on the second trade and in hindsight it may have been a "revenge" trade after it took my original stop out on trade one. I wasn't emotional or thought about it that way at the time though but maybe the little ...

M5 GBPAUD moved a bit too fast for me to get into this morning and I made an error on my entry with GBPNZD which went straight into a range after the 930am candle (1130am on my server) I was looking for a pullback after the price broke through the ...

Thanks Strat, it's interesting watching the London open and US open, quite often I see them take it to a level to collect buy/sell orders to fill a position in the opposite direction taking out all the obvious fills/stops in the next session. Rather ...
