Hello peeps. ( Anyone there)
Here is a Nasdaq one minute chart. I post it simply to show how looking left before the open (vertical line) could influence your decisions going forward ?
The usual good Laura stuff.

Quoting LauraT
Hi everyone Firstly, let me thank all of you who have kept this thread active in my absence. I'll be catching up with all your posts in due course. I'm sorry I had to temporarily abandon the thread but circumstances made it necessary. I also want to thank those who passed on supportive messages regarding my family issues. This was greatly appreciated. My mother passed away on Saturday morning after a long battle with cancer. I do intend to get back to trading, and posting here, just as soon as my head is in the right place again - so watch...
Sad to hear that.. My deepest condolences.. We're all with you and your family through this rough period, you're not alone, Laura..

Today only had 4 trades, 2 winners and 2 losers.
But a most beautiful Pushbase trade structurally, to deliver a total of 47 pips.
MTF, RSI screaming short. beautiful base just below 200 and below overnight structure.

As an aside - I saw this thread by Toto. Method is very much like 'Roadmap" but when I pointed this out in his thread:
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...sma-low?page=3

Don't post on Toto's thread about how similar both approaches are or you might get banned

I got banned and someone else got blocked. Toto is Touchy about comparisons I feel

Enjoy your weekend all.

Hi, got winner on XAUUSD m5. Pullback trendline break in established trend and test of opposite channel. I believe this is the same setup as TheG-Lover calls it "pushbase". Target on YL, very happy to get positive slippage Have a good weekend.

Friday Afternoon Nasdaq 1 minute.
Two losing trades which are really down to my ineptitude and lack of concentration. The rest were okay.
Off now to visit relatives.Have a good weekend everyone.

Nasdaq done for the morning.
Slim pickings for me after waiting for price to move around 'left' levels.
I am limited to Micro Futures on Tradestation thus why I trade Nasdaq in UK morning. Maybe I should look at Dow in UK morning or just trade in afternoons
I am enjoying Futures trading and continue to find my way among them, especially the indices which are my only focus thus far.
Patience is definitely key for me.

EDIT: Looking at Dow just now and glad I didn't try to trade it -whippy but may calm down later in morning(UK)
Peeped at 5 minute currencies - eu/usd -not much to get excited about if you trade in small amounts but a couple of trades that might have paid off were an outside bar short near 200ma and a couple of Pin shorts off same ma.

Back tomorrow. Little grandson off on holiday and we have to pick up his dog shortly, and look after it for a few days. I suppose I will benefit from walking the dog for a few days.

Got the dog and now looked at afternoon nasdaq chart to see what I missed whilst away.

Nasdaq UK afternoon.
Well - first time ever. I cannot find a way in or entry. Big candles putting me off. Might come back at 7pm , UK time, to see if things slow down ( smaller bars) or just miss the day. Maybe Powell speaking etc has spiked the market?
