{quote} generally the higher time frame will win. in this case it is the d1 support (different from yours) which price had already bounced up from to go a further distance. maybe a swing trade from h4 bullish engulf to h4 bearish engulf.
any chance for a swing trade?

Quite probable, however, 3333 to 3344 area provides strong resistance across multiple TF.

Hello Inthebox
I've been trading GBPJPY recently, but the spread on my platform for GBPJPY is 20 pips.
If I set a wider stop loss, then I need an even larger take profit in order to maintain my risk-reward ratio.
Sometimes the take profit target is very hard to reach.
Risk-reward ratio has always been something that troubles me a lot.

20 pips!!!

I would either look for another pair with a lower pip or stick to GJ changing the broker.

hello fxpider
My main concern is that when I trade, I can never manage to achieve a good risk-to-reward ratio. And since my win rate isn’t great either, I end up losing money consistently.

normally those kind of spreads are during news and day close.
i suggest you try the demo of other brokers to compare.
on normal and stable condition during asia session my broker IC markets has 0.3 - 0.6 pips for gbpjpy but also paying a commission with Raw Spread account.
even for gold is like 1.2 pips plus commission. the commission is like $0.10 (10 cents) for 0.01 unit size.
there are other brokers like Pepperstone, Go markets .......

Inthebox Teacher,
I have many issues in trading that are hard to change:

  1. When I trade multiple times in a day, I tend to do counter-trend trades, trying to catch bottoms or tops in areas without any valid reason.
  2. When the current trend doesn't reach a support or resistance level on higher timeframes, I always worry that the price won't go much further up or down.
    In other words: when I'm trading within a range, I like to set my take-profit at the top of the range. But during a real trending market—where the real profit is easiest to make—I overthink, worry too much, and perform poorly.
  3. Even in ranging markets, I fail to maintain a win rate of 2:1 (2 wins, 1 loss in 3 trades). Sometimes my profit-to-loss ratio isn’t even 1:1, which eventually leads to failure.

this was the advice i gave earlier https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...5#post15271565
just trade one time a day. make it one shot one kill.

just wait for post 1 rule to happen. ltf confirmation + htf level + market open.
i cannot advise anymore because i am not there to patiently monitor the lower time frames confirmation during market open.

if you have 2-3 years trading experience. it is nothing. you are still learning.
generally traders requires at least above 5 years to 7 years to see something that they can trade.
if someone is helping you, maybe will take half of that time.
crazy to know that it takes that long? that is the reason 90% of learners drop out.
no short cut, no use rushing to know everything.

hello inthebox
Understanding Trade Frequency:
Based on the division of the three major trading sessions—Asia, Europe, and New York—is it reasonable to assume that each market session tends to offer one good trading opportunity during its opening phase?
If I can capture a single opportunity during the opening of each session and avoid overtrading afterward—simply waiting patiently for the next market session to begin—wouldn’t this be a more disciplined and logical approach to trading?

look at the way you are thinking like most traders are.
we look at ourselves more winning than losing and leaving our defensive guards open.
markets always do the opposite of what we think.
in short we just do not know what each session will do.
trading is a difficult job. it is emotional and psychological but we chuck those things aside.
10 traders all using the same one method will each have very different results. each having different personalities.
when a method is taught, it is a full stop. no use going further because do not know their personalities.
the rest is up to individual trader to explore and discover for themselves.
but if you can keep on using a method that win 2 times and lose 1 time, that is good enough to make a living.
because in the medium term, you will be winning 100 times and lose 50 times.
and will keep on improving in the long term to be considered a good trader.
however all that are easier said than done.
simply because we treat trading like a game. when winning we put on large unit size and over trading. when losing, we do revenge trading.
most will have already gone through these but unable to change because it became habit. will take years to change.
that day will arrive only when one is desperate enough and willingly give up the bad habits, then there will be some changes seen.
