OK, new trade taken on NZDUSD long from 0.7657 about an hour ago. Currently plus 20 pips.
On my charts where the daily bar finished just over an hour ago, there were a fair few pairs that I would normally consider a high probability trade. I've chosen to pass on the majors today with BOE rate decision tomorow & NFP Friday.
Again, was looking to long GBPJPY at 241.40 bounce an hour ago and currently over 242.10 - maybe I should trust my instincts more lol.
Kind Regards

hey steve, i havent been keeping up with this thread, been very busy with work and other things. but did you change your strategy lately where before you wouldnt have taken a new position until the close of the daily candle? was just wondering as you taken a new trade before the daily close.

I think you should have every confidence to do that now. Just look at your trading. A million miles away from a few months ago. Keep it up!

I have got every confidence to do that but having very little capital at the moment it's not an option.
With a $200 account, trading $10 a pip wouldn't leave much margin for error
I see you've sent me an email - must go read...
