Punyalah nervous. 
Hi All,
Great night to sleep. Set up a straddle before I went to bed. My short was hit with a OPEN TP and a 45 pip TS. I also set a SL above the green line in case the TS reversed on me I would only be out 30 pips
Woke up and closed it with +166 in the bag. Wish this happened every day.
Have a Great weekend everyone.

Hi Matrixxdg,
Hopefully next time you post a chart c/w currency pair display and the time frame below chart, if you are REALLY SINCERE WANT TO SHARE YOUR TRADING SYSTEM AND STRATEGY WITH MALAYSIAN TRADERS. If really bag-in 166+ pips ( standard lot 1 pips = $10 or mini lot 1 pips = $1) wish all the best to you.

. and no one complains any thing.....
If I have offended you or other MALAYSIAN traders then I apologize. I thought it was a bunch of traders, getting together, trying to learn from one another. Sharing what works and what doesn't. Sharing our WINS and loses. Trying to scrape out a living from this monster called the market.
If I am wrong on that assumption please let me know.
], imho, matrader is just suggesting and didnt really meant that u r untruthful.
Hi Mattrader,
I have 22" monitors on my trading platform and do not usually minimize my charts. I use Snagit to copy my charts and usually choose the area I want to copy. I do not use MT4 as a charting/broker package thus my charts are slightly different from the one's mostly used in this forum.
Since it was insinuated in your post that I am somehow untruthful, I have taken the trouble to minimize the chart and repost it. The time at the bottom of the chart is US Central Standard Time, one hour behind New York Time. I placed the trade as a straddle, went to bed at 21:30, and it hit, I was lucky. (certainly not always the case) Straddling is a very basic concept in trading which I would be glad to explain if you want me to. If you would like me to explain my chart setup.... I will be more than happy to do that as well.
As for my trading system, I do not have a system. I am still trying to find what suits my trading style based on how I live my life, everyone is different. I ran across this thread in my travels and MALAYSIA, the owner of the thread, had some down to earth thngs to say and I thought I would stop awhile and learn.

Below is the chart outlined as you requested. The green lines are the channel + a few pips. I set a SHORT limit order @ 2.0721 with a SL at the upper limit 2.0753, and instead of setting my TP as the width of the channel, I set a trailing stop and let it run. I set the Buy Limit Order on the top green line @ 2.0753 with the SL at 2.0721. One of them will hit unless it continues to channel, which we all know it could. I was lucky this time and it broke down and exercised my short position. My platform has OCO which cancels the other pending limit order if the first one is triggered.
As far as the amount I made.... well I don't think I said in my previous post. PIP accumilation is the key to success. BUT, for your information, this was on my live account and it was 5 mini lots. I do not post my winnings because I am not out to prove my performance to anyone. (My wife is the only one that needs to see money performance) I am not trying to SELL anything here...... just learn.

Urghhh... it feel like ages I left this thread. Actually just 2 days since last FRIDAY CRAZY FRENZY 
Lots of opportunity I'd missed but nevermind... it's endless opportunity in FOREX. I might loss a lot last Friday... or win a lot. However, as long as I didn't enter the market... no harm or improvement to my acc.
