Just wanted to record my trades here.

I have been recording my trades on my PC, but got a bit sick of trying to do "post trade" analysis. I think this will be a lot easier to do that review.

Trading a few setups. Mainly TooSlow's 1-2-3 method (thanks TS)....but with a couple of "slight" variations, so out of respect to him, I won't clutter his thread that may lead to confusion for other members.

Thanks for the advice mate.
I just didn't have my head screwed on yesterday for whatever reason.

I "normally" will take S&R into my considerations.....but that went astray

Good trading to you.
Cheers

AUDCAD
-1R
Went short off the Daily Pivot level.(not a 123)
8 pip stop.
Looking for price to retrace the Weekly pin bar.
I liked this pivot level as the entry candle had hit the Daily 50% fib.
Unfortunately, the next candle broke that level and hit the stop.

I will keep watching.....

last week's high has been broken.
tendency is up or ranging.
maybe heading for this week's high then to the upward sloping trend line or the upper resistance zone.

Had another crack at the resistance level as the candle that stopped me out previously, came back to the D1 pivot.

Hope you had a better day today. I havent tried AC . I had 1 trade AN today but the spead was 5!! Yen pairs during Asian are normally 1, and EU is like trading temazepam ( on the days I find myself trading it).. mostly, with a few startles. I will look at AC. Do you mind if I ask who your broker is, and do you normally trade AC Asian?
Cheers h

NB just looked at AC, spread is fine but today would've been a nightmare to trade.
