Trade #3 (GBPUSD 144T): Short on the rotation of the golden zone of the recent small swing. Risked 10 for 30. Closed my trade manually for +10 upon bullish movement. I'm done for the day. My brain is throbbing.

Trade #2 (EURUSD 144T): Took an aggressive short trade off a rotation on the 38.2 retracement of a strong bearish surge. Structure was also there as confluence. I was aggressive in my trade management. Risked 12 for 40 and got out with +40.

Trade #1 (GBPUSD 144T): Short entry upon completion of a 1-1 AB=CD and bullish weakness. My entry on rotation was fairly weak and I was well aware that more confirmation was needed. Price also really never touched the 127 extension of AB. Price ...

I appreciate your tip Chalky. Yes, it was a lengthy but really worthwhile read. Here's what I read: url

Trade #3 (EURUSD 144T): I wasn't able to post this live as I was really watching this trade. Took a very aggresive long out of strong bearish retrace due to a nice rejection and appearance of bulls on the 50 Fib, structure and RN. Funny thing is ...

Yeah. Thanks. Now consistency is the thing I need. Gah. I will be resting until the NY open. A tired mind will not make good trading decisions. I also saw your recent trade on the EU and I would've taken that as well if I didn't have a ...

My initial bias was bullish. I was looking for longs but the very strong retrace down (which should not have happened by my current expectation) and a LH formation made me trade that aggressive short. Good job on your win and stay green.

Hm. The CD leg has to at least touch the AB 61.8 retracement for it to qualify as a possible Gartley as per Mr. Pip's RoE. Missed it by about a pip. xD

Trade #2 (GBPUSD 144T): Entered short on price rotation in the golden zone. I gotta admit, I was a little too early with my bar to bar analysis as there really wasn't a clear rotation. Also, the bull retrace was quite sttrong. I will manage this ...

Mr. Pip. I second this suggestion. Updating your very first post to at least decrease the focus of pattern hunting is a good idea, as the early posts in the thread really focused on patterns except for the swing identification part which was your ...

Trade #1 (EURUSD 144T): Entered short upon rotation in the golden zone + structure + .50 RN. Initially risking 12 for 22 upon a 1-1 ABCD completion. Expectation would be a retest of the bottom structure of a break to form a NSL. image Update #1: ...

Closed manually for +35 on first signs of rotation/retrace on the 61.8 of the main swing. No way I'm giving all that back. image image

My first trade for today. Entered short on the EU 144T around 5 mins before London Open. Initially risked 10 for 33. Now currently risk-free. image image Update: Locked in 15 pips. image

My last trade for today. Currently long on the EU. Risking 10 for 22. I'm exhausted. Update: Too sleepy to continue, so exited for +10. Had a modest day of +14. *Yawns.

GU having its difficulties going down. Reduced risk to 7. Ah. It finally moved as I was typing my first sentence. Update: Got out at breakeven.

Am currently short on the GU. Explanations are on the chart. Risking 12 for 40. image Edit: I just read the recent posts and its cool to see we are reading our charts the same way. Well at least for this trade.

Heya. I think that your pattern doesn't fit any of Mr. Pip's qualifications. Your AB has closed above the 78.6 of XA, which filters out everything except for a possible butterfly, and I think your CD leg is too short for a butterfly.

Here was the "mess" I was referring to. I am currently short on the EU. Entered upon price rejection in structure around the 50 fib retracement. I am with order flow so I am giving more room for this trade. Risking 14 pips for 29 at the end of a 1-1 ...

There was rotation on the GU in the golden zone. "An invitation to sell" as per Mr. Pip's words. Didn't take the trade as I already got myself into another mess in the EU and I wouldn't risk exposing more than one currency pair.

I'm still using NinjaTrader for trade management but since I execute my live trades on MetaTrader, I've chosen to take screenshots from there. It's just more of a laziness thing. I did have a Ninja screenshot on my very first image though. GU is ...
