{quote} Would it not have been better to wait for a retest of the 1900 area old support becomes new res, as currently you are trading a single swing
*We generally can't be sure if any move is the first stage of a rally or not.. But if a rally has begun often all that we have to jump in is that single swing.. Therefore I don't hesitate! If I get stopped out at BE so be it...

{quote} Sure.. if you are hesitant staying away is better.. I simply follow my M15 chart signals and it is already clear to me.. Is it a guarantee? No of course not.. Nothing is! Enjoy the threadEdit: Based on my potential daily range I can understand your concern BUT it is the daily.. Generally bulls don't push that fast.. Stay Green {image}

{quote} How much time in general do you spend for waiting to catch the "better"? And better for who? better for what timeframe? Better for how many pips profits? There are too many variables and I stick to my M15 chart.. For that timeframe NO it is not better to wait..
Wait as long as it takes, better for your risk/reward, 15m timeframe, its not so much about more profit , its about limiting the risk. I saw a single swing down on the 15min with support broken , in my experience a retest usually occurs of the old resistance which now becomes support.
Good luck with your trade

Decision made, SOLD! 
TP open. This will be my one and ONLY trade of the election. If it works, OK. If it doesn't, OK. Back to normal trading tomorrow. It's been a funny week

{quote} Yes,,,good thoughts and ideas! I do admit that I used to be very reckless, but now I am more cautious, especially in this last week! Sometimes I need more courage I admit as I traded a sell on the EURNZD which was successful but got out too fast, and I bought the US30 index which produced a bit. I am good at picking good entries, but sometimes I overthink! However, I have greatly reduced losses, and now just need to work on letting a trade work and do its thing without me interfering too much!!

{quote} Good for you then... but one important thing: We don't talk about other pairs here.. We stick to EURUSD (and sometimes maybe a little bit of the USD Index for correlation).. I recommend you read my rules on Page 1 of this thread.. Thanks
