EUR/USD 15m trendline breakout

Small long here, DXY was at pivot/resistance, EU at confluence of support, made 1xR

Then repeated the exact same trade on retest for 1xR.. here's the picture on DXY for the added signal

Then shorted the breakout and retest, but exited BE as I didn't like how it was moving. Have to trust instinct sometimes I may be wrong or right.

took 1xR scalp on GBPUSD, confluence of resistance (pivot, round number, triangle top, fibo), and also fib on DXY.

Tried to double up and got caught out, repeated the scalp on the retrace and it broke out... classic. But, I did notice that there was divergence on DXY. So when DXY was moving up, so was GBP for the second attempt at this trade. So I know if that happens next time to take it as early warning for a breakout.

Also I note there was a double top on DXY and double bottom on GBP. lost 1xR luckily caught my mistake early. I intended to go long on the breakout but i did not get the retrace to the level i wanted.

Last one .. confluence scalp short, made 2xR

V happy with todays trades, albeit missed a few

2 shorts on euro, the last two circles. First stopped out BE, last was a spike fade on R2/top of channel/support on DXY for 2xR

I had a more aggressive target initially on the 2nd trade as I believe a good retracement is possible here but whatever.

Long scalp GBP, 0.618 of morning move, bullish OB, 0.382 of DXY swing high/swing low. Made 2xR

Sold GBP confluence , upper TL and resistance, made 1.5xR

Took a loss, Tried to buy at confluence but got stopped on GBP. upper circle shows a possible sell, wedge/double top/divergence which i didn't take for whatever reason. Instead bought a falling knife at lower circle.. lesson learned don't go against breakouts.

Unfortunately missed the opp to short EUR as I was on the phone. Retest of the broken TL and confluence. Nice shorting opp missed.

Second image is GBP, I went long at pivot which went into profit, however it retraced to my entry and took me out BE. There was then a shorting opp at the broken TL which I missed.

Think I'll call it a day

Perfect. Bought GBP on the bullish OB, DXY was at yesterdays high so a reversal point. Made 2xR

Went out a walk to take a break from the screens- took this on Euro as soon as i came back. Long on Bullish OB, took 1.5xR.

Similar story on GBP... possible long on bullish OB, double bottom/divergence.. missed as i was focussed on Euro. May see continued dollar weakness now after this afternoons spike. I always use DXY for entries

Couldn't resist one last short on Euro, 0.618 retracement of aft move and resistance... 3 pip stop loss, made 2xR.. could have made more

Took a loss on this euro short. The direction was right but it nudged my SL. The clue was DXY hadnt reached its end of the channel so i should have had a wider SL. Lets see what happens

Edit- that turned out to be the perfect short entry and I screwed it up

Took a long yesterdays low on Euro and bullish OB... stop set to BE already

Still no profits today

Took a short and a long on GU, both decent enough entries stopped out BE because I maybe set my trades to risk free a bit quick. Looking for a long down at s1.

Another loss sadly, entered long on this expected double bottom with divergence.. just lost my nerve, took a 10 pip loss then it went in my direction.

So the theme of today is being correct in my analysis but unable to convert it into cash due to bad stop placement/psychology. When i'm on a winning streak it becomes a lot easier to let trades breathe

Finally what looks like a winning trade... long GBP, entered on retrace to broken TL/double bottom with divergence reversal pattern
