i couldn't concentrate on the market today. i have my older parents who expected my help. There were very good opportunities on the market today to make a lot of money, I know that. I couldn't benefit from it today. my parents gave me a lot and i don't want to disappoint them either. they needed my help today, i wanted to support them, the stock exchange is always very important in my life, but not the highest.

I mentioned before about this pair it holds funds that can be traded somewhere else. We got NZD GDP tonight and I think MM may push this to 280-60 to plunge liquidity then unleash their longs.Basically you are early bird now.
MM usually stall before major event then spike clear stops then dusts settles opposite positions get activated.If you had done your calendar events you would of known NZD GDP tonight!
Don't blame the system when its user error.

It can still work as market can prove anyone wrong however its about increasing probability of winning trades in your favor.Its about developing healthy working consistent mindset.

Hi Davit

I have never once criticised the system

I thought i was following the rules

I am trading a pair which is on the favourite crosses to trade and not on the list of pairs that should not be traded

I like the setup at S61 rejection and broke below 1.0300 and now keeps bouncing off

I looked at calendar before entering trade and seen the news for AUD this week and NZD news and coming news

Now this next bit, I thought i had seen you take trades before news saying that its already priced in , maybe i have been mistaken on this bit of the strategy

Hi Wags
I am just giving you feedback and not applying you are criticizing the system or even if you do its all good.Trading is continuous learning process for everyone.
You are correct that I have placed trades before news and often those trades were swing trades not deep long running trend like AN.Longer pair travels one direction harder it is to swing opposite direction and when they do its usually more volatile since MM know lot of liquidity has formed on these pairs.
In case of AN should GDP print red we could see some correction but I do think right before 5min 10min before spike south to take out stops 280-260
If your positions are not big you can ride it out.
In general my point is utilize your funds on pairs that move otherwise you are missing out making money like today.Part of watching price is its behavior. PA in my book does not mean candle patterns alone.Its watching price behavior, order flow, sentiment.
