SJ, i'm just wondering if you are trading the 4h TF or daily TF? If you are trading 4htf, do you take cross/continuation that happens anytime after NY lunch time to say 6hours before LO? i'm quite curious thanks, Greenb

Trade update on this. 1. GA, closed at +1 pips due to SL. sometimes i really hate this G crosses =.= if only it didnt pullback as bad as it did, would be 80pips in profit, 20 less than original tp 2. AJ, closed at tp for 50 pips even though i almost ...

2 trades GA and AJ both SL at BE+a tiny bit. AJ targetting the bottom range, so about 50 pips, GA i'm a bit ambitious, looking for 100pips, but this all depends on how they close in 1h5mins Yes Ga is really close to 68 TDI, but it's often at this ...

Technically though Lorbax, if you get in on 1h (1st position), and then on new 4h candle (2nd position) and then you can stealthe next 4H candle due to strong PA (3 positions). that would be 3 positions in total or you can keep adding position for a ...

3 simultaneous trades GU,GA, AJ. will check back 30 mins before non farm to change SL hopefully to BE. EDIT: technically i can go for GJ as well.....but if i were to do that, i will be getting in on 3x the risk because of 3 GBP crosses.

Acer, for the 1st part of the question (multiposition), it really depends on the traders. Some people like Emmanuel, or Lorbax on his few last trades he post go with multiposition. some other traders like me just go for 1 position. It really depends ...

i think one of the thing we do differently is when we enter the trade. i almost always exclusively enter -2 LO or +2 LO candle(4h candle). i almost never trade 1h candle unless its during london market. and if i made a wrong entry and i'm still ...

Trading Made Simple

put it this way, unless you make a major mistake in doing analysis and entry point(shorting instead of going long), you will never touch 50 pips. the worst that i ever get to on sl when there is no news and i got in on right entry is 20 pips.

Trading Made Simple

remember to always put your sl on the last high or low . or 50 pips emergency sl and let it rip.
