+22 on GU, that's more like it SHORT at 1.58001, closed at 1.57786 Chart to follow +7 for the day. Looking forward to a full day on the screen later in the week. - Divergence, break of trendline, change of 15min trix provided a clue the trade was ...

London session is where all the action happens anyway, plenty to be made on E/U so far. 5min rules according to THV manual (also Decidence's trade plan). Draw a trendline connecting the last two highs and you have a good place to exit the second ...

LONG: G/U 1.58258 - Upwards Channel - Divergence on 5min - Price above coral and cloud Out -15 Edit: I broke my own rules here. If I had my SL at 3xATR(20), I would still be in this trade with positive pips.

I just wait for price to move above it... you can miss most of the move if you wait 5 minutes for the candle to close (as in your pic). As Decidence suggests in his checklist, I also wait for the previous candle to have closed above the cloud

Decadence, thanks for posting that checklist, it's nice to see your rules so clearly and systematically articulated. I've cut and pasted it for my own use, I hope other newbies like me spotted it and are doing the same. My own rules were something ...

Ciro, this is how I understand your method, could you confirm this? -Trade in direction of slow 5min trix -Don't trade when 5min trix is OB/OS zone (above or below red/green dashed) -Trigger in 1min, usual rules on trading in direction of coral & ...

Couldn't resist a quick +6 on EU Have a good weekend folks, I'm doing jury duty next week so this journal may not be updated. image

What a beautiful short opportunity from 1.61200 on cable, I hope some of you caught that. Talk about 'no brainer trades'. Possible long opportunity just below 1.5800, i'll be keeping a close eye on that strong support area. image

Man, it's easy to spot opportunities in hindsight but taking them in real time is a nightmare. G/J is looking appealing. The first circle is the trade I would have taken this morning. My new SL/TP strategy would have saved me from the reversal. The ...

I may join you. I'm finding E/U a pretty frustrating pair. I like the way g/j oscillates wildly, good for scalpers.

Thanks for the comment. I am still ironing this out. Roughly speaking, I will move the stop to B/E after half of the 3 x ATR (20) value. Then I will TP upon a cross in the opposite direction of trix OR touch of a known S&R level, trendline or major ...

Did you catch that big movement at 6:30 GMT this morning (G/U)? Oh boy. GJ did look good today. The first two trades looked great but the third is ambiguous. If you exited when coral crossed the other way you would have lost 20 or so but if you set ...

OK, so I just made my first newbie error on the last trade. Anyone guess what it was yet? I didn't check my FF Calender. Bank of England were announcing interest rates at midday. IDIOT! No wonder PA was so indecisive. I've even done courses in ...
