Wom - my stab @ a 2158 long came along nice especially after the short. I’ve redeemed myself for the week. Those 5 bad trades was basically trying to do this but timing off and no patience I guess Seeing what is does between 2190/2200 and might just ...

Yay - just woke up to see my shorts in green and immediately closed @ 2146 when I realized all the action happened in last hour or so. Paused a few minutes to open second eye and went small long @ 2147 sl @ 2130 hoping to catch 10-20pip retrace. ...

exactly what I did...I’m so predictable even I can figure myself out lol. Sold @ 2176 and before I started typing this looked good. Go back to get the entry price and.....not so much lol maybe 2180 starts being the new rejection and keeps it below. ...

what time from a time frame close are you referring to? Daily? this is the spot I found myself in often - got an ok trade in and it’s sitting right at resistance (or support) and I don’t close and hold and (usually fall asleep or work) and it ...

Curious in your chart what differentiates between tested and untested support? Price has to be rejected more then one with some set amount of time between each attempts say 4 or 24 hours?

At least in the green. I mean do I set my limit to 2187 and collect a few pips? The last 5 attempts yesterday I’d enter a trade set my stop what felt like an ok distance to keep getting caught it some huge breakout - would go into the green for a ...

again good to see my thinking isn’t too far off base. Most of my “losses” might not have to be if I just got patient which includes being able to take a drawdown AND be able to re-enter with more position at a better rate. I often go back and look ...

thanks for the reply and comments!! I’m really not that experienced at all. Traded for a couple years or so back on 2007 through 2009. August 2008 through early 2009 was crazy. I’m guessing some of you traded that and hope all did well. Crazy ...

I wouldn’t say I’m bullish but back again for round 3 of a long @ 2188 and at least headed right direction. Mainly looking to recoup one maybe part of both initial long “scalps” sl at 2170 but will move to be shortly if it doesn’t stall. Hoping for ...

thanks for the reply - your comment here is sort of what I mean by the negative and of course it’ll come back up soon as I exit. The issue is more my tolerance level. I’ve looked at past trades and realized if I could just tolerate an 100 pip drawn ...

Closed my 2nd failed long “scalp” at like -10 pips. I’m done for a bit I think. Basically gave back just over half maybe more of the pips I collected last several trades. Oh and of course now is when it will come racing back up again

I read posts like “another bad sign for the bulls” but then see all those red candles and think “it’s got to bounce” and then buy some more after being stopped out minutes earlier. What’s the whole catching a falling knife thing? id be loving the ...
