The ideal scenario is a pullback to 90.xx level then an upswing to 95.xx/96.xx level. I'm still waiting for the day candle to form to confirm this.
I'll buy heavily at 90.xx area with TP @ 95.xx and SL @ 50 pips

Watch the daily candle. A closing candle below 92.10 will start a short term bearish trend testing the lows of 91.xx and 90.xx levels. A closing candle above 93.40 will start a short term bullish trend testing 95.xx/96.xx levels.

Hi yeri, you may wanna TP your 92.13 and free some "bullets". Just my 2cents.
i allready set my TP, so i choose to let it flow with the market since i can not trade hourly, i'm a daily and weekly trader, so i dont want to left by any up trend so i let the TP take his part. anyway i will absolutely take your suggestion if i'm a hourly trader. anyway which leverage did you use and how much margin you put for 1 transaction if i may know it?

I'm currently trading with a few banks. Their leverage are all 100:1. I'm trading standard sized contracts of 100,000. Usually I will put 05 lots per trade. At good prices, I'll sometimes put up to 20 lots per trade. Yes I have a big account and I'm profitable.

I started trading 05 years ago with USD$10,000.00. Burnt 30% of it within the first year before making consistant profits thereafter.

Wish I could do that... I seem to be just burning!

Wish you all the best!

an interesting trading you do. and i believe you use a really good trading system. i just trade for 8 month and just make 20% profit. i start trading after i play simulation for 2 years and 6 month. and actually i plan to trade for the whole of my life. so hopefully i can survive like you survive for five years. my only hope is my risk and money management that i all ways use. so i hope this system can save me from this high risk investment.

To be completely honest, there were months that I lost almost half of my big account. FX is a high risk investment. Yes, I survived 5 years! It's hardwork, luck plus miracle! Good luck to you too!

It likes to whipsaw. Find a median price and enter long or short, both can make money (TP @ 20 to 30 pips) either way. I almost have no luck with other pairs.

A closing day candle below 92.10 or above 93.40 will be indicative of where this pair is going.

Nope. I don't use martingale. Yes, I trade almost entirely USDJPY.
