Short term swing/day trading

I have decided to start this thread as my trading journal to monitor my short term day/swing trades, track my progress and share ideas. This strategy is in testing mode. I am basically applying my longterm position trading strategy to smaller timeframes.
I will post my trades here as well as analysis if i feel like. I hope the results will be encouraging and other traders can learn and also make money together. I am not necessarily sharing a system. This thread is basically a journal, but if its useful to other traders it will be my pleasure. My advise as my friend Vlady1974 had said in one of my threads is that you can pull up your charts to figure out what i am doing with the help of the attached trade explorer. Wish myself goodluck

Just as i said on my other longterm journal. This is similarly a very simple as abc strategy using sound money management. Look for the begining of a trend and swing it till it ends on the other hand Buy dips in uptrend, sell rallies in down trend

A pip is only worth it if you know how much you risked to earn it

Gradually Playing out. If i got this right i will aim for 1000pips. 1:10 risk reward. Not had time to check for other setups.

Pull up your EURNZD charts. I smell a topping out. Watcing this closely. Waiting for the perfect entry. If we close today below1.6358 i will be looking for entry on pullback.

Got it! Daily tf!

16400 could be a nice round intra-day number. If she stays below that I'll short it too!

It depends on where and how the breakout occurs. I will prefer an entry close to the very top 1.66 its possible.if i dont get a good pullback rally i will skip the trade
