I diid add to my position at -10 and was able to close with +4 .. The E/J had turned backup here on Tuesday look at your 4 hr. I had already taken a long from the bottom for 15. But I am waiting for confirmation of the turn . I get tired of being under the bus on fridays..
Right i saw 4H, i short ej already, i will exit near 134.30 if price go there and wait also for a possible turn.
Like me today i was late for short gu at 66, just took some pips on the pull back from ma21 (M15).
Trade with the momentum

If I should ever stray from this thread
I deserve a 'caning'. Of course the forex
has a way as a natural course of 'flogging'
its victims.

Exception, visits to the James 16 thread
to learn PA and a few select other sites.

hey guys hows it going? this week wa busy with work but i wanted to say two things first this sytem rocks!!! I have yet another tp hit. i set a short at 6600 and a tp 6550. i come back for lunch with green pips.

second... anyone see that nice bearish outside bar on the h4? sellers still have it so i am short again. i realize its friday so i don't know what to expect but a beob in the j16 method is very promising. it does however tend to retrace first before coming back short so the safe thing to do is wait for a break of the beob but its fri and that low is a round number so im short now maybe ill close it at the break for a quick profit.

ken i think im thinking like you used too??? coz id rather bank 10 then break even or worse so i am scalping the shit out of her when i can and those 10 here 10 there are adding up!!! i am playing the major setups coupled with a longer term outlook and i must say i am definatly finding success!!!!

Thanks to all that contribute you guys are so great

Way to go with the trade

As far as the other that is where covering can help . You can take your 10 and leave some on it to find the end of the road. even adding back here and there when possible.. That is still my number one issue trade management. If I can get more pips from my trades I am home free.. I have been doing better at leaving some to run but not perfect YET..

Just snagged 14 off the 10 ema on the E/J.. Could have gotten more but I didn't add to my trade ,Time of day thing.
