{quote} Cheers C You are right I have been trying to find a balance between trend following and counter trend setups. I noticed we were doing a lot of counter trend setups which was not very efficient. Also, I've been incorporating the bigger picture (based on daily and weekly chart) into my trades. The example was EU short trade that I managed to keep longer than usual. I think I did +25 trades last week. A few of them ended up at b/e, but the winners were mostly +100 pips. The only mistake was closing GU 1.3450 long trade prematurely (+95 instead...
Edit: there is an alternative scenario in which that triangle formation might turn into a "trap and squeeze pattern". So keep that in mind if shorting 1.26 level. Check out my previous post for more explanation.

GBPUSD 1.40 short trade update. Levels to watch.

P.S. a lot of traders asking about a signal service via pm's. Guys, I don't have any plan to run a signal service at this moment. So please stop asking. Also, I'm posting the levels that I'm watching here. If you have been following this thread you know how to trade them. You can also identify these levels using a simple approach: find confluence of "RN/QN's, S/R, S&D zones, Fibonacci levels, and weekly or monthly pivots". The more confluence levels clustered in one place, the more likely the level holds. Just remember, when a level does not hold, simply close the trade and move on to the next trade. Do not add to losers as it compounds your problem. When you are not sure whether a level is blown or not, close 50% of the trade, if it continues going red and you are still uncertain, close another 50%, this way your problem is getting smaller and smaller. If a level holds and trade goes well, you may add on pull backs. That's how you can maximize your return.

XAUUSD M15 ..long again ...38% area +RN continue going up .. {image}
Hi mrhb30jr,
You got nice trades going. But I want to mention two things: first you draw your Fibonacci retracement upside down, second, I've noticed you keep adding to your trades as price goes against you. I understand this might be your "pre-planned" trading strategy so I am going to elaborate this for newbies.

For newbies, although I don't recommend it, but some advanced traders split their original risk into different positions and enter the market at pre-determined entry levels. For example, if you want to risk 1% per trade, and you can split the risk into 2 or more positions (i.e. for 2 positions 0.5% risk per trade and for 4 positions 0.25% risk per trade). This way you keep your original risk management plan and at the same time reduce your cost basis. This strategy is different than someone recklessly adding to their losing positions.
