Welcome indeed! Did someone turn the light on?
Red Cabbage - where's that damn switch? I know it's here somewhere.

Thexder - Well done! I hope to be joining you soon both in the light and the beer!

Apply the same principles to 1h and 4h and you've got lots of 80-150 pip trades. Yesterday I found 500+ pips in set ups in 1h charts if you just take half...

(I didn't take any of them because I was concentrating too hard and managed to talk myself out of each one!)

That's what I did, and it's very frustrating . Sometimes I wonder... Will I ever learn?

It's all part of the process. Confidence always fluctuates, and the new tricks we learn are sometimes contradictory.

It would have been much worse if all the trades I missed yesterday were losers, then I would have been right to hesitate and I would have no confidence in my ability at all.

Keep it simple.

Yes I will look at that next - having fun scalping today and would like to see how it looks higher up.

In confluence with a 61.8 from lower down the trend. Plus there is a 100% Fib extension taken from the recent up move at 12330.

This is one of those pearls that should be printed out and put on every traders wall! It is the mother of all frozen trigger fingers.

The same but RR is better, at 15m level the spread can be 25% of your profit.

15m is a good place to learn PA though.

I do that too. I seem to have many reasons to not take a trade than take them. Then in hindsight they all look great.
