Hmm.. Possible, last day or an end of announced intervention period. Whales are round he corner, bankers on alarm, getting ready to fight back. Depends of who goes first. All eyes.

{quote} Well, this is purely a consequence of covid. Everyone is itching to go out now when there are no restrictions anymore. I prefer seeing that many people, than not seeing anyone. That means they failed with covid and life continues to go as intended. Awesome! You didn't bore them with your thoughts on where Pound will be vs USD this week did you? Hihi

This is an educational post and no offense to you PAT as it can save others being burnt, people seeing your money while averaging in a leverage environment will burnt themselves, i had to post it.

That's how newbies like me seeing money fall into the trap but Not many will see this.

Me talking to myself, never hold a trade more than the % of equity one can bear the loss, and in my case it should be 3% of equity at any given time. no need to be a macho, how can i see a drawdown of 280pips [(2 positions*80pips=160) + (3 positions *40=120)]

{quote} Thank you Jolito ! The track was nice. I challenge myself sharing entries pinpoint and even where my SL gets hit. I will learn more. regards bilal[/quote Hi B,, thanks for sharing your trades, always clean and easy to read. Your SL is so tight, no way I could put this close on my trades, will be taken straight away, also spreadbetting has larger spreads then normal. I do like to practise amending to positive SL, then trade is safe and if closed, reentered at better level. Good trading to you. GnuS Cello player performance

I had to showcase it, so tags like hindsight and wanna be macho can no longer be valid. when entries are good SL can be tight, and risk management is the key .

I love instrumentals, you made him get 1 more loyal subscriber.

Identifying good entry points is a challenge, appreciate any and all suggestions that I could explore.

Almost 99 % of trades are taken on averaging method.
While averaging I keep an eye 2 to 3 ℅ dd.


When the actual dd is less my turn out is more.
If my actual dd is 2 to 2.5 % my turnout is less or BE.
So averaging method is not unusual.
In addition I take high risk trades with tight stop.
Usually the turnout will be excellent, meaning risk/ reward is excellent.
Having said that there are days I loose out profits made due to greed.
I am now preparing my mindset up for daily percentage return.
Intraday only.

My thoughts on this are too many for a post here so I’ve shared a link to Google Doc I recently updated.

The gist of it is to identify a strong trend and look for a SR flip on a pullback to enter with a tight stop loss, but to appreciate why this is such a good strategy you have to understand that this entry has good probability of succeeding relative to the risk/reward potential.

I always wonder why we fixate so much on a good entry when it's not the entry that we get paid on - it's the exit. You could have a random entry system and theoretically still make money as long as your money management and exits are good. But, I know what you mean. What you need is an edge in the market, so I refer you to this thread; (link below) to fully understand what one is and what you need to know about one, - either about the one you are using/think you are using, or one you are trying to develop. You also need to know what suits you re your own temperament/psychological make-up/tolerances etc - is it longer-term trading, scalping, intraday, swing trading, trend trading? etc etc... It's not quite as simple as saying can someone help me with entries. If you're gonna do this, you may as well do it right!

I read your thread. While you talk about the concept of edges, you don't provide examples or places to look for examples, unless I missed a detail.
