Almost +1% today. I will admit to having my SL a bit lower than 10 pips due to impending USopen.

Dear Master, could you share your yesterday orders, stoploss and take profit. Reasons for every order to get in, get out . Thank you Master!

This is my today trade for Tokyo session. Do you think this trade is good or bad?

I told you yesterday I wasn't going to trade.

Far too easy to lose a bundle on this volatility and high spreads.

Look at this 1-minute chart travelling over 100 pips in two hours.

At any time, it could have turned to drop 100 pips in two minutes possible crashing the stops

These are not normal times, so you have to be abnormal to take the risk.

Most traders are compulsive in that they feel they have to be in a trade no matter what, they simply cannot just sit on their hands and watch the fun without partaking of a dabble. Don't let your trading become addictive. For my part I go fishing for a few days and forget the market.

There was, is and always will be more trades in the future.

However, each to their own for experience comes with time and lots of it.

I see you took the RSI bear div but then ignored the RSI bull div below it.

We don't pick one we fancy; they are all messages of intent.

Remember the rules...

If the div does not make the EMA it will make a HH.

If the div does not make price cross the EMA and find bear support, it will not make that target swing low.

Your first target is only to the EMA. Then get your stop to BE. Then if you get stopped out = no loss. If it gets across and finds support = huge win.

Later this chart did make a bear div and reached the EMA, about 30 pips.

I should also add you are trading right on the 1-hour EMA, this can be a very choppy affair because there is a battle on.

Dear Master, thank you very much for your advice, following your advice, I see a bull Div at A. I have some question at A: I can long at A or not and if I long, I should long when green bar running or green bar closed?

At B, market seem create a bull support, could I long at B and target is EMA M5 swing high or H1 EMA or else others?

At C, market hit EMA H1, should we see this is Zoo point for reversal? I see a bear Div at M5 at that time and H1 EMA zoo point, so I short here. Next time should I ignore this trade because bull Div at A and market hit H1 EMA ?

At D, I see regular Div, so I short again.

At E, market seem making a bear support. So could I short here because bear div at D and bear support at E and target is ABCD or EMA M5 swing low? How could I find out market make bear support successfully at E and I can short from E ? At this time , I see a war at E, I can not see when E make bear support successfully and where E should I short from?

OK This is a very volatile market so drop to your 1-minute chart to still make good money.

Clean up your chart a tad to make stuff much more visible.

All the trades you show are good but watch those stope and the risk.

Look here at this 1-minute chart very clear, very clean. Easy to spot the action even without any indicators.

The reason to use this chart is so your stop at ten pips is not hit.

From the top you advance the stop down to each of those green bear supports until the last one shown gets stoppedout.

Now we can add in the EMA swings relative to the price.

See how the chart is starting to get a bit messy.
