yes pedro, thats true.

if i cause confusion here, then i trade these short trades on the original cable thread.
I can fully understand that and don't take it personally.

i have found my approach over many years, which is constantly evolving.
nobody is finished, as terry said.
and the MMs always find new ways to surprise you and hit wild hacks;-)

the approach has to fit your personality, circumstances, age, quality of life, relationships with other people (whether you have children or a wife or a carer) and temperament.
it takes a long time to find out who you are and what you want from the markets.
trading is like dancing, don't think and just listen to the music!

Agreed, for me one trade of 3R makes my day, in scalp or to catch a nice leg,
Looks like I'm done for the day, maybe I'll try again with 1/3 risk,

There are exceptions, if you see very good setup in front of you or a level that you have been waiting for a while.
I think frequency of trading according to timeframe should resemble something like this:
D1- 1-2 trades a week.
H4-2-4 / week
H1 8 / week maybe 1-2 /day
If you agree put a like.
Tks

from time to time and when i have time i sit down and do what i call "hardcore scalping" on m1. its fun. the trick is only small size to my normal size and multiple positions. {image}
More hardcore please

USDCHF
M1 0.94474 is 61.8 + overbought (very big thing if price gets here)

W1 0.92356 previous highs same tf + 1.618 extension (Bounce has started and is probably 38.2 full swing)

D1 Last lows on the daily should be challenged

Conclusion: on this pair now I would be looking for pullbacks to short.

My chart is similar, so maybe I'm doing something right)
DXY in control, in key levels and good prices DXY still comes into the market, short or longer term,
