Hello Since, I learned trading watching EURUSD pair. Unfortunately EURUSD offers a very little volume movement compared to GOLD or GBPJPY. I realized I needed to move to GOLD.

I am a trading geek who loves to watch chart all day long and enjoys to devote to only one pair at a time. But this doesn't mean I will stick to GOLD in future or I might will if that where my trading journey leads me to. I am a very open minded when it comes to learning but I also understand that every pair has its own know-how is why It's wise to focus on one at a time.

I completed my MBA major in Marketing and worked for different companies and projects. This includes Printing and Press, Fisheries, Sports journalism, European Union funded project and also Banking Sector. I am now a full time trader. It was always my dream to become a Professional Trader.

Forex attract me like crazy. I love trading. This also came at a tremendous cost. I lost so much money learning that you can't even imagine. I never traded demo. I was always a live market trader testing everything one by one i.e. every indicators, Free & paid Robots, SMC, ICT etc etc. This is true that you have to keep learning to be successful in this industry.

I had a senior FF account but got transferred to Commercial is why I use this new FF account. Wish you had checked the threads of that account.

Where are you from and how long have you been trading this market?

Cheers!!

hit the mid band and then hit SL. Typical trade.
questions may arise:
- should i take half position when trade hit mid band?

No. when you open a trade you have to wait for your final target to be hit. remember you might think taking half in the mid way could make it a break even trade but what if the price didnt go to mid band and directly ht your SL? you would loose full not half.

Make sure you take trades that has higer TP than SL.

Placed the trade last night before I fall asleep. It was after the NY bank open but very late by me is why it was hard to monitor open trades. You see it almost hit my TP. If i was awake i would have closed with that profit but since i wasnt there. I have to wait now. this can now go either way. I can only hope for Tokyo market to take it to my TP.

You will notice i was always a reversal trader. I have erased all my casual threads and remained a few from past years. Should provide a blueprint how I came this far and the basics I had to cover. This includes BLOCK trading, Fair Value Gaps, ICT & SMC concepts.

I have a question. Ukrain is taking part in Olympic this year and won 12 medals so far and 3 of them are gold. How come a country in War can take part in an Olympic event? I want this war to end real bad.

Will we be blocked for a politics at FF? I'm not a government employee and can only write my vision of it:
Every world-class event must be used by Ukraine to get as much attention to our country and the aggressive war of ruzzia against us as possible.

And the same situation if we take sell trade at M15 yesterday:
(But here we can say that the initial TP (higher band) is very litlle bigger then SL, so maybe not an AAA setup)

I would recommend you to try only m15 timeframe. You will get at most 1/2 opportunities per day making it easy to place order and manage. 1m can be real exhausting as you know you have to continuously watch price movement. According to a source, we humans are not equipped with taking more than 3 good well thoughout trading decisions per day. When you watch and watch, take trades after trades, get into a loosing spiral, you loose your head. You overthink, overoptimize and end up with a nightmare.

If you still want to trade m1, you need to make sure you only take AAA setups with - excellent SL & TP difference, Signals are not jolted which is hard if you manually take trades coz you dont know when those AAA setups will come which will lead you to over watch the pair and loose a lot of stamina. This goes with every strategy or any strategy you follow.

Try m15. The best part is you will know by looking at chart that you will not have any trade in 3 hours. You know if there's no news today then you only expecting volumes during 3 major bank open hours as in TOKYO, LONDON & NY. and the day you have news, you know you have bank hours and in addition news events.

in m15 you only need to worry about those pick hours and wait for signals to print and check if SL & TP distance are suitable. That's it. If you loose, you learn why. If you win you learn How. Rinse and repeat!

Yesterday night trades (end of NYO)
Different lot sizes - so not about total sum (my fault - was playing with other ideas)
Trades that closed positive but not TP - manual close at the opposite band

Hello TipTop!
Quoting tiptoptrade
you are targeting MID BAND which is dynamic
How do you operate with situations like this?
Attached Image (click to enlarge)
Click to Enlarge Name: screenshot.png Size: 11 KB

(Not about sessions and timing)
Moving our direction, no touch/TP and moving against us. Move SL to BE at some moment or set-and-forget or manual close (then when)?

Thank you for your experience sharing!
you must go to lower TF or choose another volatile instrument or ,,,

you must go to lower TF
DURING the trade is on going? To see BOS? What for? You can see it in several minutes after every trade opening - then what?

{quote} can you provide me the source code of your indicators?
All source codes for all indicators are in my first post in the guppy reinvented thread.
I have started experimenting with TM CG NRP indicator in my system and the initial results are very promising for reversal trades.
With kind regards
