Yes, all good so far, thank you. Just realized I need to find a kind of set & forget approach or managing trades on a d1 basis. Intraday is out of reach for now. Seems like the market is a bit slow for January ...
Fix up, trade sharp ...

I spoke yesterday about counter and retrace trades.

another thing I do.
example. I am looking for 5 points as in main trade.
break lot size into 2 (maybe more if you want)
enter trade , you can either then close trade at +5 OR +2.5 , less risk.

you can then close one trade and let the other run.

These little things all help.
ideally I want to get in trade and then get out.

Yep, Pips, thanks. Good to see you popping in.

All good. Just got back to work, trading did not fully work out this time. Much closer than before though, will give it a shot again. I understood that the most important thing is to fit trading around your lifestyle, otherwise even good strategies may be not working. Setting up D1 again ...

It's so true. I was extremely lucky in that I had a good stash built up from my Fund-Monkey and football days plus some sold writing. That staked me at a level that I could earn a living right away.

Keep at it though, it's all about finding the mix that works for you. Once you do, you're golden.
