Trades Taken: 11 Winners: 4 Losers: 7 P/L: +139 Thoughts: Pips are dropping fast. Hopefully we will see some recovery soon, if not I will be reevaluating my recent approach. Still having fun though! haha

OK.... — Ok, so I am back from vacation. Unfortunately, my trade at 1.5900 was triggered, but was not picked up on the first spike down to 15900. Therefore I had a loss of 50 pips on this trade. ALSO, the market dropped to 1.5720 area, which ...

Well well well, Looks like the dreaded retrace hasn't happened yet. I have been reading posts in "house of pleasure and pain" frequently lately, and I think this habit has got to stop. I find that I'm getting too wrapped up in what others are doing. ...

Tally — Trades Taken: 10 Winners: 4 Losers: 6 P/L: +189 Thoughts: My last two trades were taken for solid reasons. I was not trying to scalp, however I have been a tad too aggressive for what my MM (stop and position size) allows. Therefore I ...

Stopped out — Trade # 10 stopped out at 1.5770 for -30 pips. Will wait for market to drop to 1.5720 (ideally 1.5700) before entering AH order. Does this market have the guts to break 1.5900?? I am seriously beginning to doubt it. I got in too ...

Order filled — Trade # 10 -- Order at 1.5800 was filled overnight and stop has been updated to 1.5740 (60 pips at risk) IF the market will continue up, I am expecting another spike down before doing so. Hopefully I have enough room with my ...

Hi Titan, Thanks for stopping by. I may have more trading experience, but the title experienced makes it sound like I have an idea where the market will be at the end of the week. I don't, and no one else does either. Some of the best traders I know ...

Good job on closing for the weekend! Wish I had had the sense. Oh well, this will happen very rarely. I can't remember the last time I saw such a huge gap in Euro. Do you think this could be an exhaustion gap and signals further downside potential? ...

Tally — Trades Taken: 9 Winners: 4 Losers: 5 P/L: +219 Thoughts: I think the market will fall in the next day or two.. I am waiting for a cheap price.

Well Well — Hmm, I am not totally surprised. Actually, I only realized that the G7 meeting would probably gap the market after my AH had been triggered. If I had been paying attention, I may have waited to implement my AH. Oh well. As a ...

Yeah, I think everyone is expecting a strong move as price gets squeezed between 1.5900 and the ascending 4HR TL. Your trade is looking pretty good, what size SL are you using? 50 pip TSL should easily get you to break even I would think. My only ...

Running total — Trades Taken: 8 Winners: 4 Losers: 4 P/L: +277 Thoughts: That last trade may have been a bit too aggressive. Looking back, I should have waited, but then again, I wouldn't be saying that if we were sitting at 1.600 right now.

Stopped Out — Trade #8 - Stopped out at 1.5810 for a loss of 40 pips I am really enjoying posting my trades before I take them, it is giving me a chance to reflect on my trading, and forces me not to just "forget" about a bad call that I made. ...

Short term — Sticking with my shorter term approach, as in the last trade. I am also sticking with a 50 pip stop on the next trade. This feels a bit aggressive, but due to the fact that we have seen the old high go a few hours ago but the ...

The Tally — Trades Taken: 7 Winners: 4 Losers: 3 P/L: +317 Thoughts: Win percentage at 54% woo hooo!!!! haha. Feeling good about my trading. I am out until I see what happens at 1.5900. I would like another buying opportunity (at a discount) ...

Stop — Stop Updated Trade #7 - to 1.5815 (+120 pips). Looks like I have a very good chance of being stopped out. Nice trade though, I'm happy with the result and my approach. My feeling for the market seemed to work in this case. I felt that ...

I can't say enough good things about it.

I immediately went out and bought a new mouse so I don't have to use the damned touch pad anymore. The funny part was I actually managed to gain enough composure to execute my intended trade. What a terrible experience. Reminded me of blowing my ...

Yeah, you may be right. I think the important thing is that we are both on the "right" side!!! The side with the AH! If we lose that 4HR trendline with a confirmed break, I see more downside. The way it's looking though, we're in for at least one ...
