I am testing things... I am looking at 4hr charts and see a recurring pattern in indicator behaviour. I have marked that price should come back to visit 0.7173. How far up it will run, I cannot say. But it may come back to revisit 0.7173. So - in the spirit of my journal, I am going to test this. I have placed 1 entry. Will have to wing this in terms of additional entries as we progress...

Will see..

Hello - this trade did not work out al all. Lost 20% of margin and closed. $ 600 down the tubes... But this is all good. As I am testing scenarios. Guess the EU trade was luck. This one was persistent enough to make me nervous. I cut it's throat.

Went straight back and refined.

But keeping things honest. Above trade was a mess.

Looking to make some money on EUR/USD 4hr. Long counter trend. Will add should we drop and then TP - even if we just revisit this level from lower down.

Moved over to different indicator to confirm. All on 4hr time frame is set up for lower. I'm in at 10$ per pip. But just not going anywhere....

All indications are that we will have opportunityfor some profit lower - but daily against. 4hr for. I expect a slight drop from here. Will not hang around. A few pips and close.

Ok - so a lot of testing ideas during Jan. Sometimes things went well, sometimes concepts tested and ideas just did not work. So - winding down for the month. Drawdown on my small live account at times scary - but I'm proud that I could pull the plug - although very late on 2 occasions.

But I have said from the start that I'm testing ideas. So - part of the process to try and find some decent trade patterns. Overall - i'm still alive

Will continue in Feb to see if ideas continue to have some merit. I post the months performance below
