Williams%R, SAR X-over 15 minute candles

short mes, euro sl at +10

Out of both trades.

-1 pip over all on EU Got stopped out on the second short, hesitate to reenter until it was too late.
Nasdaq was good to me, I got out 30 points. SP I did manage to set up to be tradable. (I have it so I have more assets to choose from, so I don't force trades) The first short was a bust that went in too quickly, second was perfect, Happy with management also. I am ok want to trade further but like you RP said PA seems to be tiered and slow.

Think Im done for the day.

Lesson session.
Traded Ger30 and EU Ger lost the first two trades setting me up, I should have stopped the Wickes appeared and I knew a fake out or two were coming but eager to recoup my losses I traded. And when the second batch of losses occurred, I missed an entry on EU too. excuses excuses excuses. Until I snap back and actually read the charts. To be honest, writing this to share with a lot of people is difficult, I'm ashamed but If I wish to get rid of this I must own my shortfalls.
Ok, so what is the lesson exactly here. Well, its 2 fold. First, recognize your faults and have some sort of recognition system in place so you can stop yourself from harm or rather your accounts from harm. Second, accept that you are human, design your workplace flow whatever so that it plays into your character.
And this is personal but I have problems still with confidence in my knowledge, I have proven in a number of occasions I know exactly what I am waiting for how to read the market and what the market is telling me, so leave emotions at the office door, trust in your education your plan, your know-how, and DO NOT overthink everything, 10/10 gut is the best move to make.

I am going through some posted trades, to kinda regroup and get me to a neutral state of mind and I noticed This long break between 6.34 and 6.40, could you say why wouldn't you trade that? cuz I definitely would and I'm curious If I'm missing anything?

Probably because of ADX and RSI, but at this point not 100% sure, PA was not very strong, but still in a downtrend

i know its from a while ago. Makes sense thanks

Template as requested. E/U is a 3 brick renko on a 1 minute chart.



Hope it helps.

FOMC, was today. The more I traded today and yesterday now when more I think about it. It almost seems like the market was waiting for the release. FOMC is major impact news. And in my estimation, is at the very least a good idea to be aware of that.
Now I know I just said PA seemed nervous. I did manage to get 50 pips from the E/U and 21 points from NAS100. But all that was a result of both EU and US sessions, NAS in the green only cuz US session provided the volatility to recover the losses and make a little money.
Want to post the charts but my pc crashed and MT4 closed now as anyone that uses EA in mt4 chart changes when you close it.

I feel like I need to provide some proof If I don't provide the charts.

I am aware of the fact that number of trades is to big. Working on it.

52 trades my head hurts. I've been kite boarding for las couple of days, no trading. No in the mood.

yeah I know it's absurd. Although I have to be fair, Half or so were scalp entries I was testing out an idea. But still, way too much action.
Am considering imposing a max trades rule.

E/U Short in EU session. Testing out the rule that I am not allowed to trade more than 4 trades in each session.
Challenging, to trade cuz the slight fear is creeping into my head well what if this one loses and the second one.. bla bla bla all that bull. Am aware that this is just emotion so I don't pay it any attention, but I recognize it is there.

Eu is awesome, last couple of days.

Nas giving me shit again.

Good trading on GER

Think I'm done for today. Did an awesome step and concluded the day with 11 trades for the whole day.
Really happy with the chart reading mindset and attitude. I left a nice share of points and setups, but I need to control myself cuz just one or two of them losing is a hazard I do not need. And like RP said As a trader you will not get every opportunity. SO happy with what I got

I'll be back next week, little staycation this week.

Anyone trade the Micro currency Futures ( M6E etc) ?

No trading for me today, us bank holiday.
Decided, to go on a one day trip with the misses. Almost burnt in 35c but was nice.
Really proud of myself, I didn't force the trading. Might not be a big deal, but for me its a huge leap.

Lunch duty again today, So took one nice setup on Nas took 40 points.
Done for the day
