onejester replied Sep 17, 2020-19 Look at the first retest trade, then I made a dumb mistake with the 2nd short. 3rd +1 short & then down it went. It is easy to see, whilst the +1's are a good safety mechanism, sometimes they just hamper your progress. Onwards. image

onejester replied Sep 16, 2020-60 on Monday (you were right Mag!). The first 40 I accept but the last 20 was a setup later in the day, stupid mistake. But like everybody, I'm gonna make them. It is the effect it has on me that is the most annoying thing. So no trades yesterday. ...

onejester replied Sep 11, 2020Sorry to hear that. Discipline. easy to say, harder to do. If you are up against it, your trading will suffer. If I had a proper job, I would really struggle with this. Well done for keeping the 2 consecutive trades in mind. Good luck.

onejester replied Sep 11, 2020Had my TP set @ + 40, got to +39, it reversed on me but the slippage on exit whacked me as I closed down to +11. Fckers, it slipped me from the green line to the physical entry also. The first trade + 20, but quickly back to zero. If I'd had TP at + ...

onejester replied Sep 8, 2020My trades if I could have afforded the stops. Ridiculously infuriating, leaving money on the table. I'm going to practice with 512. image

onejester replied Sep 4, 2020First day back after a surprise holiday. I'm just sat watching it. Just called that long off the bottom, but stops are ridiculous. Slightest blip & you'd be out in a flash. Pointless with these ATR's. image

onejester replied Aug 31, 2020Thanks for this. Been using pullbacks myself lately, almost identical you what you are suggesting here. I had the limit buys set up in the menu as you suggested. If I could afford the stops under structure, I would be cooking with gas. Lately though ...

onejester replied Aug 28, 2020+ 20 Missed a great short couple of ticks which would have been a fabulous trade, I'm sure my patience will pay off. Bank Holiday on Monday in UK so I'll be back at it on Tuesday. Have a good one & keep on keeping on ... image

onejester replied Aug 20, 2020Bit of a flat week for me, some of it my own fault but many near misses. +1 after 7 not doing so well for me of late. Hope you guys are doing better. image

onejester replied Aug 16, 2020Yes, sorry missed a zero off. Easier for to see the setups, but for me personally it is all about the stops.

onejester replied Aug 14, 2020Thanks. I'll practice with it first, currently using 20 sec. I got in 15 min late today, but looking at up until now it is weak & slow for my methods. There is an announcement later also. I'll wait until next week. Jason said something about tick ...

onejester replied Aug 13, 2020+30 Couldn't afford the stop on the first, but got the second. I'm sure it would be so much easier if we were in more normal times. image

onejester replied Aug 12, 2020-29 today, should have known when the first one didn't play out it would be a wrong un. Note how the loss on the first trade influenced me to exit too early on the second. Hey ho. Tomorrow another day. image
