Technically the 5 minute is still long BUT it is just gone 4pm - UK time_ and ends my session. And note the long tails...I was warned by Laura before to take note of such volatility. In short I am taking my meagre profit and off to have tea and cake with Mrs T.
EDIT: It was a struggle today.

I might have been a little too quick with my some of my take-profits but decided to close it out on a spike down

Why it's important to wait for confirmation
I was anticipating a channel cross and jumped the gun before it fully crossed - and it never did

I will now wait for the channel to FULLY cross before entering!

Apologies - I should have shown the 5 minute chart ( remember Laura suggested 15 minute directional guide charts for forex. I am using 5 minute directional chart for Dax)

Not the greatest entry as I didn't catch the initial channel cross
Closed when it hit PDH

I just signed up for a prop firm challenge with My Forex Funds and will be exclusively trading Roadmap to hopefully earn a funded account. Wish me luck!

Well done Ian - and best of luck with the prop challenge!

I'm guessing your stats are still fairly positive if you're going for this?

Ian,
Take a look at this one in the UK. Rated highly on Trust Pilot. They have a Discord group as well.

Hi Laura,
The stats have been positive as of late. My consistency is improving. My patience is improving. I don't know if I'll get the 8% to pass, but I feel like I have a good chance of at least finishing in profit for a free retry.
Thanks as always Laura!
