So ok... Long ago... Started something.. Now I have decided to go public and have confidence to post here my trades to my own and others benefit... Based on my trading methodology I am going to post most of my trades here and follow the system I have posted in Trading Systems part called the 'http://www.forexfactory.com/images/misc/paperclip.gif Three Bar Scalp Method w Probability'.


Edit:
Note: This is not a prelude to anything like selling signals and so on. Just my journal to keep myself posted and to stay disciplined. And not to mention to give some people ideas how to and how not to trade.

Regards
Bullrock

+40 and +80 pips.. Cumulative 120 average 60 pips.. The SL is at breakeven

One TP has been hit. And I have closed 2 other trades as I have reached my weekly goal. I have left one trade as position trade. Tmorrow I continue with my simple methodology... Look at the bar, determine the trend, open the trades SL, TP and so on and keep rolling.

I will do exact calculations but this is cumulatively over 300 pips for the week and approx 100 pips on average which is approx the weekly goal.

I saw CAD has core ret. sales coming out tomorrow. Is that a good trade?

Hi. I have no idea because I never trade the news alone themselves. Look at the chart. Technically speaking that is frightening and it seems that the fall never ends. Now. The parity is coming that is 1:1 to the dollar. My guess that there will be a lot of action. Short close/cover. TPs SLs and so on. If you want to buy I would wait for confirmation (candlestick) like a hammer or something or the formation of support. All in all I would not trade the CAD for a couple of days but is up to you.

The last GU trade has hit the trailing SL. I have reopened that trade at a lower range.. My guess is that the GU will continue its upward movement. The target could be around 2.03. The upper end of the triangle.

Hey Bull,

Are you using RSI 14 instead of 8 now? Looking forward to your journal.

Hey Bull,

Are you using RSI 14 instead of 8 now? Looking forward to your journal.

Chris
Sorry, CMartin. I am real busy these days. I have dropped the RSI. What I am using now is the comparison of the higher highs and higher lows and/or lower lows and lower highs.

Current PL is 15.2108%.

Currently I have done a twist in GU. When it crawled back above yesterdays low I have bought. The rationale is also that it has moved back above a crucial trendline...

I have attached a pic of the trade.

So here is the update...
The SL has been moved to BE and two of the TPs has been executed... That's +120 pips (+40 and +80)
I am in a safe position whatever happens. The other trades will be rolled to tomorrow.

The GU and GJ trade
blue triangle BUY
