Plan the Trade

couldnt resist the wick setup for another 25 to make up for yesterday only making 20 ticks

very interesting day 80 tick range from open and i made almost double that my kind of day

I kind of like the clear supply/demand in ranges . . .

a little easier to spot on 30 second charts

Mine were more like 12, 12, 13 . . . . Suppose i need the faith to let them run a bit further . . .

late start for me:

nice job jason and ras. jason if you want when up 20 lock in 10

Amazing ... same charts .. same method ... yet the results are so different ... I was up +27 at a point but dipped and is trying to dig myself out again now ... a lot less trades at least ... busy making the transition between machine gunner to sniper like you guys

thats the nice thing with 30 second charts they all look the same

Nope, I was wrong, I am still a machine gunner (I looked at the wrong stats in my previous post) ... I couldnt dig myself out of the hole, it was just becoming deeper so I rather stopped ... my very first trade was a classic - perfect placing but I accidentally clicked on the sell limit instead of the buy limit, eish, and it was over before I could do anything.

I saw the levels and everything but my timing was just out and I started taking stupid trades as I have a meeting coming up and my time got less, aka mental stress causing irrational actions ... I think I am going to limit my amount of trades per session to lets say 5 max, then I must stop trading for the day ... hopefully that will force me to consider my trades more careful ...

Well done guys. I'm having a strange session. Logged in somewhere around 10:15 ish and took 3 trades, +6, 0 & 0 - could have run the first two for 2 x +25, but it overshot my entry, so i was happy to get out for BE both times. I then decided to come back later and see if we were trending.

Doesn't look like i've missed much since, but i've had another BE and a -6, so i am sat with 0 total and 5 comms!)

You need a business plan CG Like when do I start and stop total profit per trade etc I have reduced my stop to 13 making risk to reward almost 1 to make 2 if i get 2 quick 1s i call it a day but if 1 day didnt yeild my 50 i will look for another trade on another day

Your second trade. Why did you go for the body? I thought from your video you would have gone for the half way point

That was where Demand was look at next candle plus it was trending up

They soon add up though...

The problem with grabbing roughly the same as your risk is that you need to rely on a positive win ratio and that will vary according to current PA printed and/or (over) confidence levels etc.

Seems your ahead of me too, Jas, in the 'ready for live action' bracket!)

+ 15 on dax because I was a cock and set my t/p wrong. I've shown the chart because it would have gone to 20 which would have made it a successful pin bar trade.

+15 is a great gain

38 is my selling point 18 will buy

Crap +1 then it shoots up got up 10 then it would have hit target

And again +1
