I clearly understand all of this, but I just can never figure out a positive swing trade....

There are a lot of liars out there. What would you do with an average of 15 pips a day ?

I usually give it up trying to go for a long term trade setup. But something tells me I should just start taking 15 pips if thats all I am given.

Good's

Whats your entry like, do you find price motors away quite nice then you bring up your stop into profit only to find price come back down and close you out.
Then it carries on pushing upward without you. ?

Either way it could be moving your stop up to soon or bad entry point.

I would say throw up some charts when you go into a trade and lets look at it together, maybe that might help.

Hi Goods.

What works for me is scaling out of positions. First off at 10-20pips, depending on the structure of previous price action. Then keep taking profit as it is given to you and alwys adjusting your stop to at least BE as soon as possible. My best run ever was 400 pips or so with a very tiny piece that I had left on. For me my profit is not an all or nothing situation. I take it as it is given untill the move stops. People like to brag about the home run hitters in basebal. I like watching the good "Banjo hitter" as well (Usually the first guy in the line-up) The little hits add up VERY quickly, and win the game.

Some moves are clearer than others

those 2 pinbars on 1hr were golden. what made it easier, trigger bars on same tf. nice and solid.

Gbp/usd was very similar in travel.

Like everything it comes with practice.

plot supply and demand where you see it and watch when price gets there.

I am noticing more each day. just watching price is an eyeopener.
