Quoting Buildcity
Don't know whether I mentioned it or not recently, I am now switched back to my mini a/c to slow down a bit before I fixed my house moving, should be ok in mid-Aug. With this mini (haha, blew previously on this one with few money left), I can keep on practice my plays without big impact on my real one until eveything settled down.

See whether I can turn this a/c back to normal (really little fund in this a/c at the moment) within half month. Wait and see
Hope your house move goes well.

Hey Buildcity

I don't like trading while so busy either. But I guess you know that with my lack of activity these past few months. It is just nice to stay sharp with things untill your mind can get back into the charts undistracted.

Have fun setting things up and dream it big.

Hi City,

I also like this. seem really in fast.

Its that any criteria of momentum bar ? so you can said that bar is momentum bar.

Thanks,
Sorry mate, have not addressed your question.

What I think for a momentum bar is an abnormal big bar compared with previous few bars in opposite direction (in this case).

That's my view.

So far the Asian session is quiet as well. I will wait for London now.

I am thinking things may be a littler quieter than normal untill the news starts rolling in on Wednesday.

How's the move going?

Tks for coming Rufus,

Apart from really wanted to slow down a bit (trading), the packing of house stuff did make me crazy and really tie since last Saturday. Every night at home have to pack up bit by bit the stuff (but some of them have to be used until last moment!!). Well the moving date is fixed on 7 Aug and only 4 days left. Would be quite quiet here in these few days. Take my profit share too , dont let the institutional took all.

Cheers

2 trades, missed the 1st escape, could be much more, but the Asia market is such a slow motion. Cut cos the market was seemed no much down force.

Anyway, 2 positive trades to start of the day

Actually, daily target met, now bonus portion, play more safe!!

interesting, just search an interesting EA from other thread, test it later. If it works smooth, our life with MT4 would be much easier!!

Here is the short description from the writer.

"Trademanager EA is for mnauell tradeing with metatrader, you can open and close from chart orders and you can use for makeing backtest with.

If you want to open a order you go to the button and make doppel click on it and delete the object from chart, then the EA get his signal to make the action buy or sell or close order, use backtester or demo account to make your test.

With the EA you can also set a trailling stop, or secure stop at +1 pip for open orders.

And you can set a lotsize, if you dont set own a lotsize the EA calculate a lotsize."

Last 2 plays, no time to take pic, sharp cut before the US news

Keek a post chart here. Short entries one by one at the red arrow bar while breaking the little light blue (the green line pointed), forgot the news was coming, then sharp cut with little profit (off set each other)
