Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Dislikedbillser..............I've enjoyed following your Fozzy trading activity. So, here are a few observations about T/P and MM.
The Fozzy method will eat you alive if you don't have a solid Risk/Reward plan along with good basic money management. Successful Fozzy trading requires deep stop losses because you are trading on a Daily chart, and if you don't have profit targets that match the stops...............well, that's when the small gains will disappear quickly with one losing trade.
IMO you need at least an R/R of 1:1, preferably better; and it doesn't matter if you are using one lot or five per trade, the math should remain constant. If you're trading the GBP/USD, and your S/L is 80, you MUST plan for a T/P of at least 80! That doesn't mean you can't move to B/E when the trade is 40 or 50 in profit. In fact, that's the way I prefer to trade it. Just be sure you protect yourself.......and allow the trades to run for maximum profit; in some cases that can hundreds of pips per trade. HTH!Ignored
Dislikedbillser, I recall BB mentioning somewhere he avoids AUD because of his experience with this currency. I am sure BB can comment on that if I am mistaken.Ignored

Dislikedbillser, very nice end pip result!!! I hope you don't mind the couple comments below. They are meant to be constructive and thought provoking.
I looked at a couple of the loser you had. For example EUR/AUD. If you look at the Fozzy cross the lines were running almost parallel. This resulted in 3 crosses on the Daily in 3 days. (reference 5/3, 5/4, 5/7)
The fact that the 1st cross was shallow would have alerted me to beware, 2nd cross could have been ruled out using a stoch 5,3,3 or perhaps another confirming indicator, and the last would be a valid and profitable trade (I couldn't find the short on your list).
What is AWESOME regarding your log is that it shows you don't have to make a lot of pips on every trade. You ended two weeks with over 500 pips. TOTALLY COOL.
