{quote} I rarely break entry rules, but management rules get bent once in a while. It is fear of giving back points and we both need to work on it. This could have been +150 for us both. Hopefully the other traders here were more disciplined
I was not more disciplined sadly. Platform was glitchy for me though. Entry didn't happen for about 2-3 seconds after I clicked sell so I could blame it on being fearful of a glitch. I don't think my trade management would have let me reach the whole swing anyway. It pulled back after some decision candles.

My platform has been acting glitchy as well. Grrrr~!

We just hit 1:1 on the long term so expecting a bit of a bounce

24159 Will be my next area of interest to go long, depending on how price approaches it and how it reacts. You know the good old... if/ then scenario.

O.k. Good night all..

And happy trading!

{quote} We just hit 1:1 on the long term so expecting a bit of a bounce

The bears approached 24282 with significant power. So, that shows me the possibility for it to go down to my next number of 24159. However, there are a few things I am working on. I do see the 1:1 but I didn't trust it with so much selling power from the bears.

It bounced at 24166.... just 7 points from 24159... I am going to sleep, but if there is a long, I hope you all get it, because I am sure it will be a good one.

It is a month since I joined with Mr Pips .I am still at the puppy dog stage learning about trading and Ninjatrader and enjoying the journey with all members.
I am settling down, now only been trading GBPUSD , 2 trades per day, 10-15pips stoploss on demo-trading aiming for 5 pips per day - a small daily profit!
I now realise trading is about managing a good risk strategy with a calculated risk on profit. I do have to look for self discipline and following my trading plan which is still developing.
Have a good month I made 20 pips today!

PS An interesting link? true or false?

Hi guys, I found a bat on YM 233. I should have waited a bit more to get better entry.

i am sure your comment will help him see what went wrong with his trade or what cues did he miss.

If he wishes to know what I saw, yes. However, I have no clue about BAT, Gartley or other patterns.

You were right! The bat worked well but not for as big target as I hoped. What was your reason for going long? Thank you.

We got a clear NSL (second corner of your first triangle). However, price corrected far too much and ended in re-test of the previous high (HL) at your top corner of your second triangle. Moreover, look at the bulls candles versus bears candles from the bottom corner of your second triangle to the said top corner of your second triangle. Moreover, price was not able to pass the 24180 area to the downside.
For me, this gave me more confidence for a 1:1 to the upside.

Hope this helps.

PS: I was negative during the day, but could good recover with this trade (3 entries).

What? You were negative? I can't recall seeing that in ages.
