Sorry to say I didn't re-enter. The entries you're showing there would've been after I went to bed, unfortunately this time of year I can trade the first couple of hours of London, but stretching it out beyond that puts it too late at night while I'm still working. Seems like a chicken and egg problem!

EDIT: And I have a lot of trouble recognizing ranged like that to trade them.

GBPUSD 4 hour trading 17-feb-2021

Entry from minor support at the previous high and away from weekly support.

I could swear I set it up as a pending order just above the round number, but apparently I've entered a market order. Bit miffed about that.

EDIT:

Stopped out.

Should have closed it when I realized I'd entered a market order instead of my planned buy stop.

{quote} morning Rub same thing again on EURJPY. missed it today {image}
I keep missing stuff like that, combination of trying to watch the 9 most volatile of strat's and not "seeing" I think. Going forward I reckon I'll concentrate on the GBPUSD for a while, but keep watching more on the higher time frames. I did alright when I had some time off last year and focused on the AUS200, so I'll see if this work out a bit better.

Think this month will be a slightly down month overall, there's quite a few 4hr trades I should've taken but didn't. The good is I didn't take 10+ trades, it's more like 1/2 dozen, even if I didn't end up positive for the month.

GBPUSD 5Min trading 11-mar-2021


All the usual applies. Red line is London open etc.

1. My entry. Looking back at it the 20ema has flattened out and price didn't close about it solidly.

2. Should have closed on this candle or the one before it, there was no follow through.

3. Re entered here, although a little slow with entering stops etc. so go in a little lower with the next candle.

Tightened stop to near the low of the following candle, about 1/3 of my original stop. Not a lot of room to the last high, should be prepared for it to stall there. Will watch and see.

4. It's had a couple of goes at breaking this area and failed. Closed.

GBPUSD 5 minute trading 30-mar-2021

All the usual etc. etc. Just made some notes after trading because I stuffed up the London open. Stupid daylight savings changes. Entered a trade during the European open instead of waiting for the London open as I usually do.


Check the 1 hr chart for why I was looking for shorts. See the arrow with * over it.

1. Entry. Got stopped out after it reversed at minor support. Stopped me out then went my way.

Stuff it. Packing it in less than an hour into London. Screwing up the daylight savings changes has pissed me off and that's not state of mind to keep going.

GBPUSD 5 Minute trading 31-Mar-2021

You know the spiel by now. Red line london open, etc. etc.


1. Closed above the resistance, and the recent minor resistance to the left. Stop below the low, ~ 15 pips.

Stopped out.

Could be a re-entry on the last chart but I'm not willing to stay watching it.

Yeah mate, I saw that. I'm struggling with the head games of low win rate, closing early, and re entering after a loss. Something like this the direction is pretty clear but my entries suck it seems.
I'll probably upload this same chart to strat's thread.

On this chart I have:

1. My entry, stopped out.

2. Where I could've re entered

3. Where I would've exited for about 3x risk.

AUS200 index 5Min trading 06-April-2021

Big gap up this morning.

1. Entry on this candle, price is respecting the 20EMA. Moved to BE at 1:1 R:R, as it's not launching up like I would like.

2. Missed I could've added on here. Stop moved up below this point.

3. Price hit my stop here.

Didn't take another entry. Eventually decided to finish where the screenshot cuts off. Should probably have taken profits when it stalled at the resistance I marked, but I didn't have a loss so not going to complain.

GBPUSD 5 Minuite trading 07-Apr-2021

Red line is London open, comments are as I go. H4 and H1 charts are from when I start.




1. Entry, stop above the resistance and recent high.

2. Closed the following candle. Pretty clearly reversed from my entry.

Calling it a night, it's not late here but I'm just feeling exhausted.

Red line is London open, comments are as I go. H4 and H1 charts are from when I start.

1. Pending order set below the last low. Triggered the next candle.

2. Moved to BE on this candle.

3. Should've closed on this hammer, but didn't. Didn't quite let it go to my break even stop, but not much difference. Hammer is even right off marked support.

Winding it up a couple of hours into the London session, things don't look like there's any direction.

AUS200 5 Min trading 09-apr-2021


1. Buy stop above the high, was tagged and came back to within a breath of my stop the next candle. Possibly should've taken the spread into account better with the buy stop at the high + spread instead of at the high and the stop being + spread. Didn't take the tiny little hammer because it's tiny and doesn't stick out.

Stopped out.

Red line is London open, comments are as I go. H4 and H1 charts are from when I start.\

1. Entry, took a fair bit of heat with it retracing back.

2. Closed after this candle, it's not going anywhere.

Couple of hours in and I'm finished. Haven't seen another entry and I'm tired.

GBPUSD 5 Minute trading 28-apr-2021

Red line is London open, comments are as I go. H4 and H1 charts are from when I start just before London open.

1. Entry candle. shooting star but it doesn't really stick out more of a bearish engulfing. Still, it's in line with the hourly candle just before London open and in line with the 1hr strat shadow. Initial TP near next support ~1.3830.

And more or less straight to my stop.

I suppose the higher time frames aren't really doing much, so should've been looking to trade basic price action or another pair.

An hour and 45 min of the London session and I'm calling it a night.

After reviewing the last month I think I need to take more notice of what the hourly chart is doing when trading shorter time frames. Most of those losing trades I shouldn't have taken if I was paying attending. Either I was trading against the trend, or trying to trade a trend when there wasn't one like on the 28th April.
