Well AUDUSD has harmonic pattern so I shorted it and since NZDUSD is correlated I also shorted it too. EURAUD had potential head and shoulders so I went long aiming for right shoulder. It’s sloping so it might turn here. GBPUSD is breaking previous lows and then going up like a broadening wedge so I went long and went long EURUSD as well based on GBPUSD

Yes of course.....i open some (1-3) daily......but im different to many on here, im only looking for between 20 and 30 pips.....i use a bigger lot size (for me), with a tight stop.....so looking for strong entries with little drawdown.....move stop to BE quickly

Do you get taken out of a lot of what would have been winning trades using break even

I usually do the same as JP1... trade intraday, probably 3-8 trades a day. If my stop is moved to BE+1 and it gets taken out, then we still have an opportunity to reconsider the trade, or to get back in, most of the time at a better price. I'd say it's pretty rare for price to move back to my exact entry and then go on to do what I thought it would. Most of the time if I do get taken out it's because I was wrong about the trade or price pulls back farther than my entry.

I guess it works for some people if I did this I’d always be losing trades. I’m underwater 10-30 or so pips sometime before it goes my way

yes, but you have to very good at it...In my perception only a few can do it and make money consistently where the account is growing week by week...
trading is simple but is simple is not easy.
