Normally I'm rather reserved, but somehow I thought it had to be said to you.

I actually know what i am doing. I've been doing this for a long time. Just lately the markets have been acting differently to some degree. With Cable, we are not having those easy big range to play with, but we have enough range to trade off. If it moves up we long, if it drops we short, we just need the trigger. We will always have movement , even a 70 range is more than enough. We need belief and the need not to think.
Well said.
Wow! I've got some experience to gain.

I got triggered long on my one.

Used a buffer of 3 Pips above the actual high break. Range is 13 Pips. Applied a break-even stop at +8 too. Let's see.

Edit 09:42. +8 barrier reached and stop loss got moved to +1. If it retraced there before moving to TP of +15 I will think of still entering on the short break (if happens on time). There is red flag news scheduled for 14:15 for GBP.

Edit 09:46. Forget what I said. +15 reached. Removed the sell stop. +1.5% for today achieved. I am done for today with trading.

Cable chart copied a couple of minutes ago.
i have already put the 2 70 range black lines on the highest high 1, and lowest low 2. and as price moves they will be adjusted..

Before anyone says. yesterday we had a daily range of 61. it happens but it really doesn't matter.
It matters more if we are fixing a bad trade from earlier in the day.

t 07-25.
it looks like i will trade off the 04-00 4 hour bar.
small range at present, and the open should move it enough in one direction to make profit.
( It should) ????? nothing is guaranteed but, should it break then retrace , we shall fix.
We are dealing with a small range which should be ok to fix.

I probably wish i'd never said that lol

It looks slow. My range is 11.5 and I placed my orders but used a buffer again of about 3 Pips. The actual high or low wasn't touched yet and we are 40 Mins into the hour already. The total daily range today is 30 so according to that it should provide enough room left for today assuming a 70 Pips min. range to be expected.

Edit. 09:43. The actual high got reached. So without a buffer I would be already long now.

Edit. 09:46. It barely touched the high and boom, down it went. Now up again? So this is the struggle with what people refer to as "false breakouts".

The actual low was touched too now and glad I used a buffer in this case otherwise I would be already long.

Edit. 09:50. I now got triggered my pending sell stop and be short. Let's see.
