in this thread i will be posting my trades wether loser or winners . we could also share ideas . I'm a technical trader, and all my trades are based on market geometry and price action. The good news in this game is that you don't need all those great degrees or diplomas to make money in this market. less pression, simple strategies, and inner strengh lead to consistency. 95% of price action represent market direction....we need to be aware of that

now i'm watching a couple of pairs like aud.us, eur.yen, usd.cad ....and more. Once the set up is ok i will post it.

last week the eur.yen trade was not triggered as well as the one on eur.usd. the set up remain valid:

buy eur.yen above 107.50 S.L at 105.73 tP1 at 109.00 and you let the remaining run

buy eur.usd above 1.2756 SL at 1.2638 TP1 at 1.2850 and you let the other run till 1.2980

buy chf.jpy at 82.93 SL 81.78 TP1 at 84.00 and you let the other run till 85.00

short gbp.chf at 1.5600 SL 1.5740 TP 1 at 1.5500 and the other at 1.5300

when we analyse the chart and try to make a certain correlation. As long as we see the gbp weakening agains the swisst franc and the the euro we know this movement is reliable. it's not a perfect science, but it works in many cases. By the same time when the chf.jpy is getting stronger, we know the odds are in our favour.....

happy trades to all of you

the green lines and whatsover lines you see on my charts are only support and resitance areas. I mean horizontal support and resistance, and i adjust them mostly every week or 2 to 3 days depending on market conditions

Hi KK the euro.cad entry i post yesterday is no more valid because price moved beyond the last pivot. Yet the short bias is still good. So tonight I will set an entry order to short eur.cad at 1.3370.. Stop Loss sholud be placed at 1.3470, with profit target at 1.3000.
If you took all the signals i posted from the beginning of the week till now, you should be at least up 3% in your account (by only risking 0.3% of your account per trade)... Which means that if you were to risk 0.5% per trade, it would be far more interesting

Happy trading

the 1.3370 entry remain valid. it is a conservative entry. but we can also enter short at 1.3397 for a more earlier yet valuable entry. in my case i will set my orders to both levels

good day to everybody

on friday, my aggressive entry on eur/cad turned into a loss when my conservative one was not executed. But that's the game. i 'm still bearish on eur/cad. And i will also short euro/usd and gbp/usd too.. here are me entries for tonight

EUR/USD : short at 1.3008 SL 1.3164 Target 1 at 1.2711 T2 1.2435

GBP/USD : short at 1.5585 SL 1.5734 T1 1.5390 T2 1.5030

EUR/CAD : short at 1.3407 SL 1.35100 T1 1.3160 T2 1.2961

I also included the result of my trades of last week. a positive week with 2% account growth by only risking 0.3% of my account per transaction.

Happy trading
