I know marc is going to get all mad at me for this, but since I am driving to Las Vegas in the morning, I think I better call it quits this week and get some sleep. good trading this week though. Good luck with tomorrow as well. Have a good weekend everyone Get better Mike I will stop in a few hours before NY and stay a few hours in but then I gotta hit the road.
No worries...I wish I were going to Vegas with you. Don't forget the Wild Cherry slot machines. Start with a 5 or 10 dollar bill and play doubles until you get to the last 1 or 2 dollars then start playing singles and before you know it you've won!

Seeya!

White ovals are new targets. I've moved the 1st white oval below current PA to match the 150ema on the H4... I have a feeling it will reach and cause a nice wick to appear leaving PA settling above D S1.

I'll still be holding my EU short. Wont be adding positions today, since its friday.

I will move my SL to B/E if price sustains a break below the 150 MA / rising trend support.

Well, at the moment I am glad I moved my target entry down below D S1 to match the 150ema on H4 if I hadn't I would be quite upset right now but I have missed entry by 3 pips which is upsetting.

To top it off it ended up forming a nice wick on the H1 candle and leaving PA resting above D S1 just as I expected. 3 pips from entry is heartbreaking.

Hi s2659
If I have take Profit (TP) of say 20 pips, I set my trailing stop EA to start at 19 pips and to trail by 1 pip. That usually catches it.

yeah, I'm not a fan of ea's for me its about logical areas to place my SL.
Thanks for your advice tho.

yeah, I was fine with the trade, got 1:2 RR. Although it never feels good giving back profits.

Hi s2659
I don’t use EAs for trading, but they do come in handy to set a trailing stop when I’m not there.

got in at 1.4289, is there a doji on H1? confirming your good entry if it is
this is not your usual MA 5-10 pips trade type, mid term trade?

I'm going for the long term. I'm "betting" that it just keeps falling like the weekly and daily chart indicate.
