After a full belly dinner and no hope for my short entry soldiers I took a nap. Waking up to a set of TP target hit cool & thanks’ EU. P/s note to self: I should zzzz more {image}
I don't get it! How is your SL same as entry price ? I can't do that cause of spread. Unless I wait till it travels further off before placing it. Is it automated trading or you do it all manually?

I hate stop loss. I always use them and I always got kicked out. I am giving up tons of profit every week in that matter. If I don't place them I am in red by the end of the day. Need to re consider my TP.

Looks like our minor down trend was oversold, we found support on the new channel line.

Maybe you work on your SL level. Possibly placing too tight SL. I was taught that placing too tight SL is like trading without SL. Just my tip

I dont think there is any upside for euro. What i'd do is whenever i find a top and i simply sell it. But it needs to come above 1.1670 - 1.1690

Everyone knows it will retest 1.17 but i dont think it will cross and reach 1.1737. even our sett little dog knows. So better short at these levels. I dont want to miss the ride.

If you trade breakout, placing sl at the level that had been broken is wrong. What i mean is that when there is resistance breakout going bullish and placing sl at that broken resistance now acting as support is wrong trading practice. This is because there is possibility of retesting of the broken resistance

While trying to look for a buy opportunity on M5 any touch to 1.1595 will put bulls in jeopardy and help bears for continuation.. trade wisely.. if you open buy at lows but see weakness in climbing back above 1.1610, switch back to bearish or at least stay on sidelines for a while.. Stay Green
I hope you opened longs as close as it gets to 1.1610.. I hope you had your stop losses below 1.1595.. I hope you watched if price touches 1.1595 or not to get out early from buys which there was no need for so far.. I hope you are waiting market to reach above 1.1644 now..

Stay Green
