nice trade , i run a 15 pip take profit ea on my 1min trades and a 30 pip take profit 5m trades. it sets my stop, when to bring trade to break even and a trailing stop all at once then manages the trade. i still watch the trades and at times close them earlier then the ea. but tonight i have been able to hit the usd/jpy and eur/usd at pretty much the same time, all 4 trades were off the 1 min chart and all hit the 15 pip tp. i had 2 other trades, 1 closed +3 and the other at break even.

today is a very slow day, in fact if you see the news, europe has holiday in 3 banks, so we can consider that a holiday for london, but if you did not notice that like me, here are my trades:

hi blanca i just did a demo trade on 5 minutes, it is lke your "deep pullpback short you just did on 1 minute, exit on pivot for 34 pips (and it reversed precisely on this price, incredible...). i notice again that when a pullback is deep on 1 minute time frame (cci 89 goes the other side of 0 line) then most of the time you just have to watch the 5 minute and find your entry on a clearer chart, here is the one i used :

very nice carlito, well done in a very choppy day, the key levels in my opinion are like the highway and the price is like the car, sometimes when we reach there we watch and see if we can keep going or stop there, it is funny a friend of mine told me this years ago but did not pay enough attention to it, takes time to understand, lol and losses.

nice to see u carlito, the first trade the only problem i see is that its inside ribbons, this means we are inside noise or chopiness, this kind of market is difficult to see or even filter but if you put ribbons up youŽll see improve.

hi,

i use 34 sma applied to high and low, you can also substitute the first ribbon with a 10sma, so you can see the price closely, here is the rest of the day


-6
+12
breakeven, so total for the day is +31 pips i think the day is already over because bernacke will speak it seems everybody is waiting for him, slowing down the day, so i guess its all for today for me.

3 rd loser same thing happens over and over again, trade goes well then reverse then loss.
you"re on a TF of 1min , take your profit quickly , or change and go on an upper TF , so ; on your screen i don't seen 3 losers but 3 times you've forgot to take your profits (10 to 15 and go out)
on TF1 you cannot expect to take a long of 50 pips , i know it happens sometimes but not so often , because prices go (upper and lower) slowly
and make retracements towards EMA34 & 50 ; and if you put your stops too close , you will lose !

what is best 3 times 15pips safely or 1 time 45 pips with risk ?
