Learnt this on my guitar....the benefits of lockdown
Learning to play the guitar can be tough. I can remember trying that once when I wanted to impress a girl that I liked but i gave up after the first chord. Then I decided to invite her for a pre-movie home cooked dinner kind of evening. Worked out too. (Yeah call me Don Juan), lol...

Since then I am able to play a few songs that i like quiet okay on the Piano but only by ears, never even tried to start learning reading notes.

How are you learning to play the Guitar if I may ask, can you read the notes?

Well almost. Now for my fourth FTMO trial i actually reached to the profit target but exceeded the max. daily drawdown limitation, damn it.

Again no plan however. Not even tried to follow one. Random entries at random times i thought it might be worth a try to place an entry by simply looking to the chart at that time. Most of them had at least stop loss levels placed in advance about 10-20 Pips of distance on average.

Now i think two entries hasn't a stop loss placed and one of them must been the max. permitted loss killer.

After a classic schoolboy error by myself this morning I've managed to get flat with my mistake rectified after a bit of a battle each side of NFP. At least it has ended on a positive note so a beer o'clock has been earned if not truely deserved.
Anyway a little bit of classic britpop to send us to the weekend. Have a great one all!

Deep pockets are needed and big balls ..

Take profit if more than 5 pips...ie close the trade
On a losing day, simply set take profit at Break even plus 2 to cover the spread & eventually get a + trade
Stop trading at 5 trades in the red & wait patiently to get back in the game
No Stop losses.....
Wish me luck... ....Lol

Interesting. I have a similar strategy (even got an EA built for it, but had some flaws and the person who made it is not well atm). Slightly different as it would go short/cover if price ran a %of ADR away from the high/low.

Did you have to ride out any of that downward spike?

If ride out means do nothing then yes .
The strategy is. " hold on tight ", small lots, deep pockets, all comes good in the end....
I go to sleep at 11 am uk time so the big moves go unnoticed by me...
