Quoting Techanalyst
This is starting to become annoying. Very slow on Tuesday where it suppose to be volatile Tues,Wed and Thurs. I am always saying that i will start trading strictly on 15min chart and one to two trades per day, but always go back to longer term and hold my positions. I am seriously considering to strictly go day trading 15 min chart and like I said one to two positions per day. I did that in the past and it worked great. Holding positions is good, but it gets really annoying, where I can just go out now and do many other things. But I am still here...
Yeah it does get annoying. Maybe trapping traders for NFP. I have traded best Sun-Mon and Fridays as of late.

Ironically, holding positions is so that we can go on with life but market has made sudden moves that I want to be around for it. Fortunately, I have three girls who constantly bid for attention and I just have to limit trading time. Did 15mins before and it just ate up my life. I prefer 4hr...just fits my style...although I do not hold for long term. Just hate seeing candles move too much.

I have seen your posts and I believe you are doing great. Maybe reward yourself during these slow times.

I see what you mean. Totally agree with you. The 4Hr chart is actually one of the best. You can use it to trade day and longer term. Maybe I should just go exercise and do some errands.

Here we go again EURAUD pullback up about 30 pips. Now it is going to go sideways and possibly tomorrow down to about 1.6100. Once it gets there, i am taking profit and going back to day trading no overnight positions as this is so slow and annoying.

EURAUD sells give decent swap, why so bothered?
PM me if you want my EA.

I am just annoyed waiting for this pair to go to 1.6100. Looking at the weekly too this looks like it will get to 1.59xx but will see.

Looks like it’s headed down again as we type. I’ve tried trading lower time frames a few weeks ago with no success these higher time frames give better signals
