Just went short. Along with working on my fib extensions, I used some lines to try and pin point a termination point. I was hoping that price would get into my dashed box, but then it started crawling really slow. So, I went short.

Today has been good, I enjoy a liquid market. Not sure of pips yet but at least 100 -150, will do the math at end of day.

Currently in EU 144 Tick. Took it at the 38.2% rotation due the overpowered previous high, I have a steeper SL because of this however. Looking for BE at high with trail stop at 1:1 projection, will be at retest of previous longer term high and likely supply.

Long US30 on 1:1 completion to the downside into 78.6% correction, not much but some structure to the left.
Expectation still NSH.
SL below low of swing.
Rotation candle not extremely convincing but thought I might miss the move if I wait for that extra 2 points to complete the 1:1.
Not sure that it WILL move though
Hopefully I will be in positive territory by market close so I can get out if necessary..

treat your trading like a business. No emotion here, just following the tradeplan, thats all. Loser or winner I only care about following my tradeplan and I know I will make money in the year to come, thats all. This is not a get rich quick scheme, this is a business that we are all building from the ground up. Good look in the markets this week fellow traders.

Quitters never win and winners never quit and last but not least, Dreams don't work unless you do! LETS GO.

Out with TS +6.5 (risk was 4.3). Will look for re-entry in line with further topside expectations.

Out with TS +21 @ 123.2 ext. R:R wasn't great with 27 risk, perhaps should have waited for 1:1 extension as planned but will look for re-entry.

I would not worry. You are trading for yourself in the first place. I enjoy to see others trades (do not matter if live or afterwards), since it always shows your analysis at a given point. I personnally do not trade forex, but there are at least some/many? here who do it.
Nethertheless, it is more fun to see active participants in the forum.
Maybe you could draw a small line on your entry candle.

Thank you for sharing your trades.

Cheers evocpr19. I haven't drawn the trade on the 1 min but I have shown a vertical line on the offline chart. When trade closes I will put the trade on the 1 min chart.

Currently at BE plus a few and looking like making a 1:1.

Hello traders,
here are my two trades. I expected NSH so looking for longs. I secured first trade when price hit the structure and got stopped out. The second one was basically the same entry and this time it played out. Now, some time after I closed it at 1:1 completion I can see I should have trailed decision candle. But the price stopped a bit at 1:1 and 127,2 fibo so I closed it.

My first trade for today on the YM was +4 short. Then +60 long. Price got into my Harmonic termination zone. Hopefully I drew it correctly. I saw a good rotation to short it. Let's see how it plays out.

This is what I saw on the 30m orderflow as far as a harmonic termination zone. Again...hopefully I drew it correctly.
