Fiber

Top of the 4HR descending channel and at resistance

Too early for me to go into this as I am working on limiting my risk and looking to diversify over other pairs that might be less correlated

Because I believe if the cable breaks higher fiber will follow and vice versa (to a certain degree)

AND

Might be a bull-flag in the making.This is where they will decide where we are heading next month and maybe the rest of the year.
I would love to see 1.18 again

Leaving some more risk for later.

SL to BE

Today is going to be very choppy

BUT

Would love the trade to survive to the down side because if the weekly prints
a double top.We will heave a good position to start build a decent downward attack and can add if the momentum continues.

BUT

Like I said its Q,M,W's end and there should be a great deal of profit taking
so expecting some serious whip shawing.

So will see where we go from here

Rooi,

Nice. Most people won't do what you're doing, that's why I like the 'Journal' section of this forum.

You are exposing your strengths and weaknesses to the very critical/skeptical public eye. Facing fears means growth...stepping out of our comfort zone helps us to become a better trader (or whatever in life).

I'm gonna study your trades for a few days and see how I can benefit. I like how you use several time frames to assist in making your decision. I may need to consider that one aspect to make an improvement in my trades.

Thanks for looking in and leaving a comment

Yip Multiple time frame analysis is the only thing that seems to work for me.

Yes exposing ones self is a very tricky thing to do when you have not yet mastered what you are doing. That's why I thought if I set up a public journal it might help me think my trades through and if they go wrong then people can leave a comment why it went astray.

I see you have something similar where you post trades as well.I will look to go through it.

Best of luck to you

Hi Rooi,

If you get chance when you post i think it would be a good idea to put the price so it can be easily seen

keep it up
