I’m honestly so fucking done with this pair, this is genuinely untradable, I’m going to reset today, I don’t think I am ever trading eurusd ever again…

I’m done man, no matter what I do, I’ve had a losing straight week. Capital is still protected, but I’m done of random reversal happening at random. Either I’m completely stupid and am missing out on something important that I should know, or the market reacts off of nothing. I guess from here I will only keep studying more and more, because it’s pissing me off to some very high levels; i know it’s a shit period, don’t get me wrong, but I feel like I am lacking some part of knowledge.

Whats everyone’s stance on high impact news days? Do you guys still trade or do you stand down and just observe? Do you wait for the news to hit and then trade on strategy? Also how do you guys think todays high impact news is going to effect the markets?

yeah man, but raging is natural, I was still plenty of heated a couple of minutes ago. As said above I will keep learning, but not sure if I want to keep trading this pair anymore, really feels too weird, quoting the other comment made here yesterday, it feels like a big casino.

If I say I don't understand you well, I'll be lying. I broke the spell by sticking to my personal rules:

1. On a news/data/report release day, I trade after the news, and if there are multiple news at 30mins interval, I wait for the last news release. I let everything calm down (15-30mins) then I ride the trend, if there is no trend. No trade.

2. On a regular day with no news or impact. I fully use my technical analysis.

3. I look at people insight here then check for loopholes in theirs and mine. Combine the 2 and check the market sentiment, I enter in a potential spike to my direction then put a sharp SL, once it move further ahead, I shift my SL.


Summary of all together, I follow the market and I don't predict the price action, if it's going up we moving, if it's going down I'm ready. If there is no direction I'm watching.

you consider trading multiple pairs with smaller amounts and treating as straddles for example if I put a trade on EUR(small amount) buy and then find a pair that runs the same direction like the AUD and put a sell in on that one. One of them is going to go green one of them is going to go red. let the market breath till the red comes back around while pocketing the win off the green. rinse and repeat with small amounts utilizing much larger stops and see if it works better for you.

Same can be done with pairs that trade opposite of each other. many ways to play this method out.

thank of it as straddles using a negative trade as your anchor. its been incredibly successful for me for the last 4ish years.

just throwing out another avenue for you to play and keep your head in the game. many ways to make forex work

I edited this post incase this will help anyone here. this is just a small guide i put together for myself when looking at the overall pic when selecting pairs for straddles when using the EUR as my anchor.

I don’t know, it might get there. I’m out at 1940 with good profit. Now I can sit back and watch the FOMC show this afternoon without a care in the world. I’m not expecting much in terms of an interest rate cut or hike.

i suffered with this pair and blown 2 props on it and i know for a fact that my edge and phsyco and trading mentality is wrong the markets doesnt reward effort it rewards rewiring and consistency and learning learning a strategy and accepting that would fail at a certin period is OK . but surrendoring is not an option my wishing to better days

I have also noticed fibonacci levels agreeing with my support level down at 1.18845...

I suspect a breakdown from the channel, touch and go all the way up to 1.21

{quote} Target hit
If it went up, you would write target hit. If it doesn't go up, it will go down. That's clear to everyone, it's not a target hit. If it doesn't rain, we won't get wet.

thank you so much man! I was pretty pissed earlier on, I thought I entered correctly, but yet again I make micro errors, that are literally invisible before trading, and only after trades are done, do I see how small they were, but with huge impact. This is what pisses me off. I can proudly say that I rarely ever struggled with price action, and even though I have little experience, from the first day I’ve fallen in love with it. It’s just that whenever I trade, I’m somehow always entering either too early or too late, and the differences are literally between 10-30 pips. I just can’t seem to stop making mistakes like that, idk if it might be the timeframe (1m) that distracts me or something, but I will definetely try 5 minutes from now on for entries. I appreciate so much the suggestion of timeframes, I actually use 15m to check, and 1hr/4hr to use as htf. Thank you

Believe it or not, I’ve always been wanting to do that, as a matter of fact, I sometimes look at futures, because I’ve discovered that when dollar gets weaker, everything else increases. I will definetely grab more knowledge, and then apply that! Thank you mate

I may be wrong, but from my perspective, I see a left shoulder with a gap and a head raised high. I assume the right shoulder will close the gap and descend to 1.1740-1.1735. However, this is just my personal, unobjective view of yesterday's very complicated movement, including the strange statements that supported it to fly so high. I am not suggesting anyone's intention or manipulation.
But I could be wrong, I've had a rough last two weeks and my self-confidence has plummeted to zero.

Its not you, its the market. This month is different than others. last month i managed to pass a challenge, when everyone was saying that PA is hard around December. this month I'm close to failing my phase two.. I've been stressed but i found out it wasn't my strategy but the market behaving differently.
