Hi

I thought I would post this chart showing a successful GU trade from this morning. My entry is indicated by the up arrow. I used a 30SL and 20TP- I found the SL indictaed by the breakout candle to be just too large and 30/20 are R/R Ive used for a little while now.

The pullback was only formed by one candle but I felt it met with the rules?

Have a good day

Mark

could be 1 candle, could be more...the pullback could be outside the box, won't matter.

nice trade!!

The banks had nothing to do with the market today.

Banks were close to the public, yet swaps were active.

Cheers.

Dear sir/madam.

Just as informative note, I'll repeat, swaps were pretty active today. Lack of volatility has nothing to do with banks been close. We're not here to go beyond a trading system per se. As is good to keep your ear on the ground, we really don't care about market conditions AKA trends or lack thereof. Read post #1.

Don't mean to argue, just settings things straight.

cheers

I was stopped out for G/U, G/Y and E/U during Asian Session. For European session +20 on GU and GY. Closed out with +10 on E/U. Right now the stops are huge with the volatility in the Mkt.
