We'll see how it unfolds. I should have just held yesterdays longs.
See!!?? You've done something while I've been sitting on my hands! lol Some things never change....goes with my first post. haha!

We'll see what happens today, I either want to see that level taken out...or another test and rejection. I normally get into my trades on tues or wed based on the 4hr. Maybe I should keep my log up tp date.

True, but what I "may" have done is commit trading suicide...LOL

Keeping your log up is really good if you take time to review. That's why I post in mine a lot. I look over the weekend at my thinking (or lack thereof) and it helps me spot weaknesses.

What I've noticed is that I've started getting a bit better at reading "likely" direction on higher TF's and that helps me feel more confidant in my picks off lower ones. But I STILL have to work on the "having faith" part and HOLD the darn things....LOL

I still trade largely off 1 and 4 hour using 30 and 15 minute to find entry and exit.

My problem is when I over analyze, I have to make a call and go do something else. I've already spent too much time on my charts so I will take a break and go ride my bycycle down the boardwalk. lol

Exactly! And if you want to follow a PERFECT example of that, here's the GY trade I could have scored nicely on last week into this week. It's a funny read....now....LOL

Saw it on the 9th, took it on the 10th and then proceded to screw it up by NOT walking away....

Hey, +3 is better than -3. lol That was a good read, it's funny because I have done the same thing time and time again. lol

I don't really get too excited about sun night's and mondays.
That's funny cause where I come from some see Mondays as bad-luck days
But here is my EU radar for the rest of this week. Mighty S&P has me thinking it's going for a Bull trap on daily; so I am gonna wait for an intra-day invitation to the party.

Some limit orders I've set for now. I will observe the markets and react accordingly. Patience is a virtue, you don't have to be in a trade all the time. Only trade for me this week was a double position scalp on yen. Not a very sexy trade at all. lol
