Hello Just the one trade today, the pairs I watch are all around important levels so I was lucky to get this good one in! 20 pips on the EUR took profit 7 pips above the whole number... I set it to breakeven after it was + 15 just to play it safe

Hello Just thought I would post 2 charts of what and why I did not trade today, as can be seen on the 1st chart there is a pretty good bounce on the 43, price looked as if it had broken the S1 (green dotted line) so all should be good. If you look ...

Hello Just the 1 one trade today on the Pound, was a bit risky really with a whole number not far from the open of the trade ... also the daily R1 line was right about the take profit but the momentum was with us and took out +30.

If the price is above the days open ( PC uses Euro market open) then go long... the reverse is true for short. but really all that is about is putting your orders in the direction of the trend, PC has said that he also uses the week open price along ...

Hi ab1 Your right about if the market is bouncing around like a yo-yo, drawing S/R lines is a good way to tell but if the market is range bound well it's range bound and not much you or I can do about it. The entry system you use is only half of ...

I have been staying away from short time frame trading in Asia but when I see a trend like this one its hard not to jump in, bounce off the 16 EMA (MA's are 8,16,43 and 86) wanted to get in at a better price but still was good for a 20 pip profit!
