I entered a long on USDJPY. I first saw the opportunity on a Hector trend chart, daily. We have a retraction to 30 and 50 trendlines. A breakout of the countertrendline, small retraction, and confirmation of new swing. I am late in entering but not ...

If you find the grail before I do let me know. I think it is important to truly document your thoughts and trades. It helps you learn. You can't lie to yourself about what you thought was happening.

ok, The trade is in post #147. AUDUSD gave a green hammer 2 days after ending a long short. I read this as possible reversal from short to long. Price at that point was 0.981. Checked for S/R and found 0.9807, 0.99306, and 1.0119. I also assumed ...

Thanks for this. More understanding of the thought pattern of the professor helps the students. This week I tried to trade with you. You made pips I didn't. Difference was exits. And one trade I tried without you.

Trend trade started on USDJPY based on 4h trend. Entry set at break out from 102.000. Have breakout and retrace. Waiting for confirmation to hit my buy stop. I'm starting to wonder if big traders are doing a fake break out before moving the market. ...

I know and I agree. Learning the mechanics now. When I start to show some profits then go live with small lots. Then prove profits before going normal lots. SL for French both manual and EA in demo. Germany in 20 minutes.

I'm adding these on my Demo account as described. One issue I have is no entry before LO. I am normally sleeping during LO. I like to place limit orders just after Tokyo open. Have you seen this invalidate trades? I have been following your trades ...

So after my pity party this morning that every trade I make is bad, I feel a bit better now. No I haven't had a positive trade, but the one's I made were close to profit. First the GBDAUD trade that I lost 90 pips on. Felix stayed with it 1 more ...

Took a buy stop on EURCHF at 1.24853. Sl at 1.24589. This is a triangle breakout into an up trend. Breakout and retest have occurred. If it continues up after retest then I enter. Lot size is much larger than reverse style due to tighter sl. 5-21 ...

I wanted to try my hand at picking one of these. Here is what I see from today. I think I see some weakening of USD across multiple charts. Particularly EURUSD looks ready to swing up in a sine wave. The AUDUSD is showing a hammer candlestick for ...

Placed sell stop on GBDAUD @ 1.55498. SL at 1.5676. This trade is based on a single candlestick reversal at an area of s/r. I don't see the candlestick. This is recommended by Felix. I believe our chart times are not aligned. I don't have the ...
