both trades are closed. With MT4 closing of trades is almost impossible as I can't get to the platform. Had to use mobile to close the trade. With MT5 no platform freezes at all. The problem is not being able to use the indicators I have on MT4 which are not available on MT5
It's been a very good day for me just trading cable, tremendous boost to my accs

cable is interesting, a big motherbar is holding subsequent bars and I'm inclined to go long, if you look left you will find previous price action to go long...ppa is not visible on the chart but if you make the chart smaller you will find it

So I was watching the last closed EJ h4 candle and it didn't look too good for longs, if I see a signal down on the m30 chart, I will take the buy trade out for a small loss, otherwise I will leave it.

So I was looking at the last closed h4 EJ candle and it didn't look great for longs. If it signals down on m30 I will take it out for a small loss until that candle is invalidated, otherwise I will leave it in.

I like EJ on longer term but havent traded for awhile...watching on the weekly for a turn down soon, and then might get involved.
Weekly chart....not relevant to an M30 trade i know, and im mostly trading short term....but i like the look of this a bit later.
