{quote} Moty my man, you keep talking about 'crooks'. Forget the noisy M5 for a moment and look at your 1 hr. It is all normal 'break a supply/demand area, test it and move on". Even your MA's are supporting the current up move. It would not surprise me a bit to see 6200 today, seriously. I just think you shorted too early, it happens to all of us. Just my opinion {image}
Moty has got too many voices in his head ,, too much worry about shit that dont matter ,,gave him a map a bit ago ,,, 10 hours later well Ill be damned ,,here we are ,,wonder how far it made it ,,,well ill be damned again 82 pips ,,,what happens on any given day Moty ? If one looks at Ata s 54 hourly Lwa how hard would it have been to have a clue what was coming and one does what ,,, milk it till nothing left to get for the day

{quote} I'm seriously considering the safe SL option. I'm just considering the r:r ratio. I'm not yet a fan of trailing till infinity. Less than 40% of my trades move significantly greater than the Average favourable excursion. After a certain amount of pips, I look to get out.
I saw your reply to MzansiObi, and while the comment wasn’t directed at me, please allow me to give my 2 cents:

I’m of the view that a 30 pip SL is too big a SL for intra-day trades. Your evaluations are great and you are most definitely doing something right if price often hits your 30 pip TP targets with the accuracy you speak of so obviously reading the trend isn’t an issue here. But IMO your problem is more on entry points rather than SL - if price does run 20+ much less 30 pips against you, that is what the next or even next next next S/R level already. If you got out early, waited for price to hit the next S/R before pulling the trigger instead, some of that drawdown might just convert to extra profit on top of your 30 pip TP.

Even in Ata’s case, his signals always give a 20 pip SL but what I noticed was that ‘20’ is just an arbitrary number in his head. He’s mentioned before that if price goes against him 10 to 15 pips and he knows his analysis was wrong, he’d already be looking to get out as close to BE as he can. And in the situations where price does hit his mental SL of 20 pips, you notice that he keeps holding instead, because he insists on his analysis and he knows price will eventually travel in his intended direction. BUT even then, in the meantime, he doesn’t just let the drawdown sit there and mess with his head - he does a ton of other things.. adding to his longs, scalping shorts, etc etc. Always constantly doing something to offset the drawdown.

My point? 30 pips is a huge distance to travel, and honestly trading just 1 standard lot is more than enough to feed you for the day. Consider refining your entries (snipers like post and Slt93 have that down to a tee) so that you can have a tighter SL AND still feel comfortable, or, make sure you’re doing something to make up for the drawdown in the time that you’re red.

All the best!
You hesitate, you masturbate.

{quote} Maybe reduce your lot size then so that you get comfortable with the safe one?
Yea. I know about that but Trade by trade calculation of lotsize distorts my plans and security against mistakes(fat finger)
I have a plan of trading same lot size until account reaches a certain amount then I increase lotszie to a new level. Trade that size until account reaches another milestone.

Thanks bro.
But I don't just trade S/R levels based on level. I wait for H1 close to be sure that a new direction has been established/breakout has occurred. The place to put the SL is beyond the swing high/low or nearby S/R levels. Many a times by the time the H1 that establishes the setup closes, price has already moved more than 20 to 30 pips. Entering that trade and placing SL within the swing high/low looks pretty unsafe for me. I used to ignore such trades but now I'm considering taking such trades because most times they seemlessly cover my anticipated target in a short time.
