Trade No. 7.: USDCAD buy at 1.0204 (H4 bullish pin reversing the direction?) SL at 1.0179 TP at 1.0250 (daily R1)
Trade no. 7. hit SL at 1.0179... about 8% loss...

I think this was a mistake to change my mind after a not-so-good signal on H4...

So first week finished (actually 3 days).

Project started with $100

Weekend balance: $134

1 position open for the weekend: AUDUSD short

Not bad, but it can be much better with a lot more discipline...:-)

Hi bud,,, If the above trade had not been positive how would you of felt. ie if your mistake had turned out positive?
Take this loss as a signal or a reminder to be more careful.
You do not need a trade explorer, you already say what your intentions are.
you can achieve you aim but it will be difficult without knowing how you are going to do it'

be good and have a good run

Some ideas for Sunday evening open (assuming there will be no big gaps):

NZDUSD short: second consecutive daily pin
GBPJPY short: nice H4 bearish pinbar, with the trend
EURUSD short(?): thursday D1 pin, maybe I try the 50% retracement to enter


We'll see...

Hi Everybody, new week, new hopes, let's go...:-) :

Trade No. 8.:

GBPJPY sell stop at 151.50 (H4 bearish pin and trend is down)
SL at 152.20
TP at 150.10


...and as I write, it is already triggered, so it's a sell now...:-)

Still alive, but doesn't look this trade good:

forgot to update, that I changed the SL to 152.25 (from 152.20, just a little more room above the recent highs), I'm still in this trade, but don't bet too much on this position to survive...:-)

What I didn't realize, is the Japan bank holiday today.... and the overall positive sentiment isn't good too, for this position...:-)
