Im looking for a move down eventually, but have just gone LONG 9874, Stop 9844, TP 1 9924..want to see it bounce of 9869 support and run up to give a nice entry for a short.
Looks like right, it will bounce up. I close my short from 1.9811 to 1.9872 --> 39 pips.
I only trade XAU/USD. Based on USD news & Fib SR & BB20

The road south is clear right now.
Roadworks around 1.9840 (see 1 & 4 hr charts).
If that's cleared, next stop on this ride could well be 1.9735.

Navin I have a question for you please help me. I have 4 trades stuck from Friday morning as 1.9950, 1.9972, 2.0020 and 2.0227 for long positions and i don't want to close with loss as I had so many losses in the recent past. Once I close those positions without loss then I will take a break and learn the trend because trend is our friend.

So please tell me do I need to hold my positions for a while right I placed a bet size up to 2.0040 ro 2.0050 for all my 4 accounts. Please let me know your opinion. It is greatly appreciated.....
i dont think we going up we are expected to drop, u have to learn to get rid of a bad trade especially if it will be costly..i cant tell u to cancel because im not comfortable saying this to u ...but worry u may blow yur account..
forex is a funny thing it could go up but im thinking down bro...

good luck!

Good stuff JR!

Thanks mate.

Glad someone is getting some benefit.

It's step 5 that gives me the most problem. If only one were content to take the first target profit (anywhere between ~5 and ~40 pips depending), you are virtually guaranteed it every time.

But - a la Gordon Gekko, "Greed is good" - we all look for more. I guess this is where Forex/trading separates the men from the boys (apologies to any female traders).
Darkness lies one inch ahead..

JR, what do you do at each target?
1) Take profit & open a new trade once through to the next zone?
2) Scale out?
3) Stay in?

Right now we're at T2 and stuck in ...

Good lesson for any newbies in this thread...never be afraid to admit you got it wrong and close out your trade for a small loss. If I hadnt have done that, I would be nursing a 30 pip loss by now!

So its time to make a choice ,

Either get out now -
or place trailing stop and look forward to
lower prices going toward the original targets

I choose to use the trailing stop ........

@Master Abuawad

A question. If 4H candle close more than 1.9869, she will go up to 1.9913. Otherwise will go down to 1.9797 or more. Doesn't it right ?
I only trade XAU/USD. Based on USD news & Fib SR & BB20

actually i think there is more to it than this: always analysis risk to reward and stick to yur plan unless u know yur wrong completely, otherwise u will find many winning trades and one lose which will wipe out all the wins..
Its very important to get the target right as well as knowing where to enter,
if u are that uncertain about the trade u shouldnt have entered it in the first place
