If I don't mention SL and/or TP = longer-term setup possibly in the works!

Trump was famous with his tweets.. Biden however has his secret pending heart attacks.. Don't lose all your money if one day he dies on stage while giving a speech.. Always careful before a US president speaks!

{quote} Look at 4 hour charts i think we will go below 1.1730. There are some stops to be broken.
Thanks mate ! I see what you mean. I would really love to have stayed in shorting all this while ! I enjoy tackling a strong support with the proper mm also! But I have had this one of many plans settled hours ago, and is based on larger TF. I simply cannot sell anymore when it is stalling at this level around 1760.... Also, cannot buy under .1755... so I am in the middle and its giving my trading a break, at last.
Next week will be a different story for my intraday and I cant wait !
I am not saying it wont get to 1730. But in the scope of my system of strategies and their respective risk management plans for the day, I cannot, at this very moment, in light of present circumstances, in light of the remaining espresso in my cup, sell again.
Got my last 6 short scalps of the day, they were the ones I shared with much pain
. The lowest I could afford to go was this level here, UNLESS when we broke 63 it was with more power and had remained under 55...was close ! Hence my last sell stop that was at 1.17629... But all is the past now...On another note and to end the week :
All my setups are supported by their respective EAs, most are for -9 to +8pips and are triggered partially on tick action and most would have entry, reach SLs or TPs even before I could share, unfortunately. I did share some combines of scalps in the past, but it was of no interest and it takes me more time to get a chart out than a funny gif
! Sharing my last shorts today was just a peak at what I have always been doing. Today I shared maybe a 10th of my trading(usually can share maybe a 20th!), on the fly, when I need to kill my urge to trade as much as I used to (even if returns are lower, doctors order to cut it in half last year though am still struggling!
), or sharing when I have a second to have my meal, espresso or wine
. As strangely as that may sound to some of you, I love you guys/gals, and I love coming here to read you all and to share with you all. I see my posts are rarely appreciated, I am ignored by many, and I am not surprised and completely understand and appreciate everyone s opinion. That is normal, as everyone acts according to their own needs and judges according to their own beliefs and experiences, and to the very limited and random trades shared. But I am not interested in sharing to get likes or followers, not interested in sharing my +80% win strats alone. I am into sharing also my 44% win strats also (actually better return/drawdown ratio than my higher win rate strats.), and so many other approaches that do not fit in the FF average mould. As many of you know, trading opportunities are MUCH more diversified than is commonly shared on the internet. Every tick is a buy and a sell, and the consistently losing traders are not the movers. Some, at every tick, go for 2 pips, some for hundreds of pips.
Too long story short: my trading is not about going in one direction, it is a combination of multiple complementing approaches through multiple durations, through multiple risk management plans, attacking probability's vulnerability in everyway I have found it to be consistently profitable (for me that is return/drawdown optimized and re-optimized with every quarter) throughout the years......
Wishing all the very best with your trades and especially now a very very wonderful weekend,
Sincerely,
Mtako
