No green pips today I keep doing some big mistakes by buying high and fake break anyway SL useful today..
Still no close above previous week high but still above the weekly 240 sma on 30min chart. This one has been a good support today but its going to be tested again during Asian session.

{quote} my tp was 1329 but took my money and ran as teying to rebuild the bank after some bad losses. Gold is hitting one of my support lines now but looks like it might just keep going. Good luck with ur trade - serious money uve made so far! usually eurusd heads down if gold is going down.....hasnt tonight though
I hear you bud.
Just had a look at the weekly gold chart and when you pull out(zoom out) it's drawing a pretty decent picture. Think I might hold onto this trade for sometime or up until I do get stopped out.

you're correct it usually travels in the same direction. Just cause it hasn't headed down yet it doesn't mean we won't see a lower leg EUR USD

Yes bud hats off interest to me.
First things first let's watch and see how it closes the week. I do have an interest in bears but not ruling out the possibility of rallies intraday. Look at the previous up move from this week and how quickly it climbed up. Also looking at how price tends to consolidate in this current area so will take it one day at a time and setup at a time.


Just looking at the daily now and can't help but think we could see 1300 again. Time will tell.

Stay green bud.

Jp1, sounds like you've been killing it with the gold... nice

I gave myself a little break from the markets for doing bad things the other day. See if we can't get this ship turned around...

Digs, when you get a chance, can you give a little more info on why you use Camarilla pivots? Do you also look at standard or any others?

Z, thanks... I struggle with monkey brain (making impulsive, bad trades in the middle of nowhere) and bias (I tend to start days off with an open mind and then put the blinders on as we go.) Working on it, getting better, but those are the two primary enemies of my trading right now.

Sometimes I just need to hide the mouse

well...I least you know....many do not.

First step is to recognise.....then you need to work on yourself.

What you just mentioned are problem traders need to face at some stage, we need to change our mental patterns to go with the flow of the market.

It is not easy but is doable.

Maybe instead of stopping trading, you should take only one trade per day, starting from next Monday. Win or lose, only one trade. Only trade the LO or NYO and only for 4 hours. Plan where you going to take your trades, do not chase them, wait for price to come to you, if they do not come do not trade. You have to learn how to be engaged with the market without taking trades. Also monitor yourself during your session, let emotion come up and let them be, after a while you will create a gap between yourself and your mind. You are not your mind/thoughts, who is aware of your thoughts/emotions? You will be fine son. Have a great week end.

Took 11 pips out of 14 (3%).

Not easy week....but closed in green....took only a few trades this week.....not every day/week if good to trade....staying aside is a trade itself.
