DislikedThat is because I thought EUR/AUD and EUR/GBP were better to sell and I don't like to have too many open positions where I am short or long on the same currency.Ignored
Congratulations on your system.

DislikedGambler180,
Have you had a chance to analyze the last trades? Any way you might be able to lower your exposure, or was this just one of those days?Ignored
DislikedI could make the losses much smaller by just having one trade open at a time but then I would also win much less and I am not satisfied with a 50 % increase of account balance each year when I only have invested $250. So it was just one of those days.Ignored
DislikedWell,...you have the right attitude. Have you set target amounts and time frames, or are you looking to increase profit by as much as possible?Ignored

DislikedGambler180,
You chose to buy the GBP/CHF on the 22nd (profiting a nice 250 pips.) Why did you choose to buy? On the chart below, I have marked the decision candle with an arrow. Your decision was correct for a nice profit, however, it does not fit with your entry rules. Have you made a change on your rules which helped you to make this decision?Ignored
DislikedIt did fit my entry rules. The candle before had created a downtrend by closing below the highest opening price for an up candle in the previous uptrend. The candle in the previous up trend that has the highest closing price is very close to being a doji but it isn't so it should also be counted.
I have added a rule to the system and it was based on that rule I made the trade but it still fits with the original entry rules.Ignored
