TT5 GBP/USD Taget HIT !!!!!

Thats 50 more pips for me and almost 1% more to my account !!!
That's a great job Tiki. I took a few pips off shorting GU about the same time. Just 25 for me though. With that additional money in your account, that trade made a real solid dollar difference in your balance. Keep it up bro!

very weird how price has behaved today on the majors: they rallied, had a huge retrace to their respective daily 5emas then bounced away....

Yes I agree... and there were a lot of good TT5 that could have been had... just not so far out into the zone as I like and I am also leery of making trades on Sunday evenings or even Mondays too much.... I almost did GBP/JPY this morning before work... it would have been a great trade... !!! but instead I did nothing... which at least means I didn't lose anything.. !!

Ironic really, since I think the best trading days for me are sunday evening/monday morning through tuesday morning. I do agree that it's better to have missed a trade and made nothing than taking the wrong trade and getting burned.
Never underestimate the powers of the Force.

I like 5735 too.... but sometimes it just won't quite hit the fib line... so try to play it safe... I think there is also a VERY high probability that price will come back up to touch the 62 ema on Oandas 3 hours charts which is a bit higher still...

Hi Tiki


Please help me understand your TT5 better. I see you gain approx 1% average per trade if I am not mistaken. How many percent does your system allow you to take as a loss maximum?

thanks and all the best

Since there is no stop.. it varies... but I am willing to let it go to about 3% down... then I start getting worried... !! Yes. I am generally going for about 1% per trade...

Super Tiki!!

How do you determine when to get in? The move might have carried further out as it did with GJ e.g.! Still trying to absorb this TT5 here.

Hi Tiki,
Congrats on anoyther successful TT5 trade.
I too took this one (a few hours earlier at 1.9674). Feeling a little nervous about it (since I was already in a FirstStrike southbound), initially I only set my TP to 50 pips thinking that if it rebounded strongly I would raise the TP before it was hit. But I missed it - so had to settle for a measly 50 when I could have got my usual 100.

Hi Matt,
I don't know if Tiki has something more sophisticated now, but he once said that once it hits one of his lines he just asks his cat.
Personally, I base all my TT5 trades off the 1 hr chart (so its really a TT120). What I usually do is to look for it to test or break a line, then look for some sign of a reversal. In this case it seemed like it was reversing off the Retracement Fib 38.2 (Bo style 61.8%) line. But for me it is totally discretionary (except for my SL) because I don't have a trading cat!

Ian

P.S. You are right that it could have gone (much) further out. This is why you need a strong stomach and a long SL to trade TT5 (in this case my Reward:Risk was 0.27, but I usually use a TP of 100 so the R:R is better than 0.5).
