A standard business day. Ups and downs.

The missed short is playing on my mind so I thought I'd write one last post to exorcise the FX-Demon:

  1. Even though I missed the big one, I made pips today so that is a good thing.
  2. I also did not chase the entry which would have made me pips today but likely risk developing a bad habit that loses pips in the future. So discipline was maintained after losing my way.
  3. There are 1000s of moves like the one today in future, so no big deal.
  4. I was reminded not to overthink the setup, when I see it, pull the trigger and think about it afterwards. This reinforces the need to always have a trading plan so when the time arrives to pull the trigger, ALL the thinking has been done before hand.
  5. At the end of the day, it's only 65 pips missed; a large number which will help me to remember this lesson!!!

Weekendtime for real!!!

Hi everyone! I wanted to get in so so so bad today but everything in me was telling that it's not my strategy. As I mentioned few days ago, this would be our weekly bottom. In whole picture we did over 300 pip correction. Great. Was expected. Now question is wether market wants it lower or we are back in consolidation period? Any ways I am buying! On second attempt to break below 2220 or 2212 or any other numbers.( I am not very good at precise numbers ) And 2280 would be my target. Of course if price push below and stays there I would remain sideways. Another great week complete for me. 3.7% and total 13.2 % this year so far. I know it might seems very little for some of you but for me it's consistent. I wish everyone great weekend and warm weather no matter where you are!

As lonely as it feels your not alone ,,everybody who has traded has been thru it whether they admit it or not ,,clear your head take a little time then come back ,,,,,,you can probably see your mistakes easily enough now ,,,,,,,,,figure how to see the the same in real time so they can be meticulously eliminated ,,,it will come but everybody see s things differently ,, tweak things so you understand ..

Then the plan is flawed ,,, the mkts have not changed ,they do the same sheet day in and day out year after year ,,,,the mkt dont always range and it dont always trend ,,,,,systems do not work , they are designed for closed environments,,the mkt is far from that because of the different conditions . . Find a few different methods ,they do adjust for the human nature tendencies of the mkts tweak them make them work for you ....... I wish you luck man and a encouragement ,,there is nothing else where this kind of money is available .

Just keep working. Continue to be open minded about your strategy and new angles. I've hated certain charts so much I didn't go back to them for months sometimes.

So you’ve taken a beating...welcome to the the business of speculating every trader who is where you desire to be has had the s**t kicked of them too at some point.

Now, take a break and if you want to step back in the ring, analyse where it when wrong and why.

The EU didn’t do anything to you. You entered the trades and you over leveraged...We have all done it.

Rest, retrench, and if you wish to come back then come a better more capable ‘you’

Then respectively your plan wasn’t good enough. Market conditions have got nothing to do with it.

Be honest with yourself.

Every one of us has to self regulate.

if you wish to continue..go back to demo.make a new plan and try to break it - seriously. Trade it like a an EA and then and only then if it still continues to deliver.. you have a potential strategy

EU busted the shoulder and low then Digger,

Now they've run the stops the odds are decent for the retrace eh and if it makes it I’ll re build the short play.

Have a good weekend folks and try to give a little love back to those who are supporting you in this journey...there isn’t much point getting over the line and realising the price was losing friends and partners along with the way

manage to make some pips today.

next week I'm seeing further upside, there definitely room for making a new high on the the higher time frame charts getting back to a possible hit of the 1.26-1.267 area, but a possible head and shoulders is also forming.

ill just probably use the 1.22 area as my turning point spot, 1.216 is my 61.8 fib and we are closing above my 50% fib, if it goes below ill look further for that head and shoulder, if we can keep making way up and start a up trend in lower tf staying above 1.22 ill look to buy at least till 1.235 which gives me 100 pips from today close for next week at least before i take another look at further gain's up at that resistance.

Just some starting thoughts to think about and look at for next week
thoughts? Keep It Green

I also see the play to the upside as long as PRZ for ABC correction holds.

Slight problem for a bounce now ,closed below the lower tgt from Last quarter inverted H & S pattern ,,,,,,, in between the ext levels from top range but 3 month tgts take precedence over them ,,,,If I do the ext on last 3 day range lower tgts put it working towards 21,, You have the 200sma from 4 hour real close ,, its been touched actually (rough monthly price average ) Looks like it will poke below that ,if it does it will get used for resistance once . Think the sharks took their profits then started selling the highs ,, Qr1 the daily did use that--- 2168--- next up I will be looking for sells around the rough weekly price average which has given back most of its gain from last 2 weeks ,,,(the average ,not the price ) price has given up all its gains ,,, your trendline is roughly around the weekly price average ,,,the chance should come , I will probably be joining ya lol ,,,,2332 bounce would be good for that
