I decided to join the GBPUSD and EURUSD bears yesterday. It's all about setup and analyses, not profit or loss.

How will resistance 90.078 respond to the the strong trend. It was based on the daily middle band and 4hr upper band

Next focus is the USDCAD long. I hope I don't miss it- using the journal here to follow it as I read/reread my post

Same here. Watching 0.80809 resistance level where the previous strong setup was formed. Reversal is easier to trade than continuation. I have been trapping this pair up and down

I focus more now on reversal than continuation. This is because continuation is faced with problem of strong retracement, even when we're right.

It means that this week I have new setup: CHFJPY long and GBPCHF short I have said something about the strategy on CHFJPY. The two positions are of two different strategies.
CHFJPY correlated pair, EURJPY is great also, though I was afraid of taking both

If I understand you well you mean closing your position same day you entered. It may not work because am swing trading- leaving positions for days, weeks, and months

The reason I say it may not work is that in most cases retracements occur as soon as you entered the position. Using it in intraday means lots of losses in your positions. During retracement, SL is bound to triggered even when you're right in your analyses. The next candle after your entry could just trigger sl.

Using the longer time frame candle for sl already indicated that it's not good for intraday trading. In using the longer TF candle that combine to make the setup allows possibility of strong retracement before it finally obeys. I said all these since the beginning of the post/thread

Happy new year to @9jatrader and the members of this great thread,now i have been back-testing and studying this strategy and so far so good. I decided to try different setting the Bollinger Bands and instead of using 20,2 i use 10,2. You can see from the chart below where i entered EURNZD short trade based on daily and 4hr chart using 10,2 settings. I realised 10,2 gives an earlier signal unlike 20,2. Now my question to you 9jatrader and the members is if anyone else has tried to change the bollinger bands setting and what was the results?
personally i feel 10,2 gives an earlier signal. if this post is against the thread rules,please let me know i pull it down

regards

Good luck. I have not tried to change the settings. Maybe I would try in one platform. We're all learners here.
Thanks for sharing and new information you gave

I just lost my second positions on USDCAD long. Maybe for scalping short, but nothing has changed on the monthly- strong Pin Bar

Working on daily middle band and 4hr much more better. This is because it allows one to have small sl and and maximize target. I have shared this chart before now. What drew attention here again on the pair is the small sl and great pips.

You could see the consolidation support it formed, the red mark. When the opposite is formed- forming resistance, it has the high probability of making strong movement on the bearish setup

Though still trapped around middle band, weekly, yet was able to close with bullish candle

How was the weekly?
USDCAD was the pair of the week. It made and broke account. I was a victim on my USDCAD long.
The monthly bullish setup still valid
