Today I am trading 4 bounce points, two long ones combined in one, one short from yesterday (which is a level from 23-Jul) and one additional long.

Short Side : 3416.55
Long Side : 3386.65, 3379.15

The 3386.65 is covering two bounce points so has an SL of 2.3 points, rest two have the default 1.5 points initial SL.

Lets see what gets hit today... all are covered by EA which will start chasing it down as soon as it gets hit till break even and then trail it to TP


Attached are these levels on the 1-hr chart for reference...

{quote} The fact i noticed is we both are trading (almost) same strategy(bounce points) and your sl are hited multiple time before going into your dierection is kinda sad... just see and try to figure out whats going wrong ...... either could be your limit is at the very beigaining of the zone or your sl too small.. the thing i will say that will definatly increase your win rate and profits is change your fixed sl from 1.5 to 2................ and place your limit order 1-2 point above/below the point you initialy decided;........... you don't have...
Thanks for watching it and advising about how to increase the win rate... I appreciate it

But, I will stick to my points and levels (SL)... In the long run (long defined as 50+ trades with the same levels) they don't matter, because the number of times you would lose the extra 0.5 (if SL is moved from 1.5 to 2.0) will balance out the gains.... Its not the levels I am trading its the probability of bouncing from those levels which I am trading. My bet is that its more than 50-50 as compared to all other points in between....

As we can see from the chart, once we put fractal indicator it will show many fractals ...what is your criteria to determine which levels to use as bounce points?

I first take the next 4hr fractal (main) (in case of short bounce, next low-fractal and vice versa)... then in some cases I go down to 1hr fractal and do the same... I rarely go down to 15-min if its in a good trend...
