Kodflakes Distortion

On this trade I made one crucial mistake I took the higher area o my channel and I did not avg it like I thought I should. However entering on my phone makes it rather difficult as the info it shows is very limited. Now on the chart it points out I got in at an ok area bu if i was a pinch more patient I could have got the lower area or laid my stop a bit more beyond the lower area. It went about 4 pips into my stop so a thirty pip stop could have prevented the loss or waiting like I knew I should have would have given me an entry at 3310 with only S/r supporting my entry, or at 3320 with a littl green hammer confirming the s/r area. Either way need to be more patient. Also after looking back I noticed that the lower area was much better area as all the highlighted areas show on the green arrow.

had a bad trade this morning entered on the levels from the yellow box but the kelltner was sideways and the four hour was looking to go up rushed into it and just plain messed up on this one -.5%

Took this one off the board I have a feeling it may turn up

Putting half a position at this one looking for one last push down tis will be the last trade of the day for me. Made .5% on the last trade on the GU and still not sure what direction those are headed at the moment so done loooking for today and will take this one to BE at +20

Only snagged 4 and change o this one topped at +20 and change but was on the road and closed it on my phone just a little late it is what it is.

Opened this one last night as well as one on the GU the Euro originally wentto plus 40 roughly and would have netted me 1% but with as slow as this one has been Im taking it off at +22 for .5%. Tried to enter at the green arrow because of the hihlighted area but just couldnt get the entry I wanted. As for the GU it dropped 50 pips while I was sleeping and when I woke it was slightly in the negative took it out at -.9 pips. These two are stuck in 100 pip range time to regroup in different areas

caught a strong spike on the UJ earlier and I dont really like being on these sudden strong moves as they can reverse quite quickly. I got out of this one when I was about at +10 got quoted at +12.8 which put my win at 1.2% Great scalp small stop quick run could have made a bit more but Im fine with what I got.

Looking for an entry at 3521 with a drop to one of my areas at 3426. Will be going to BE or exiting if slow move at 3480 roughly. Not sure If I will get this entry but this appears to be a top on th 4hr .5% risk on 20 pips.

and the trade has ran by me entry came with in 4 pips but never hit my mark off to work now missing london is really starting to catch up may need to find a way to get up for london as trading for a couple hours in the morning before work just is not getting things done

Took me 45 minutes to get 7.5 pips Ill take em and look for something else.

very clean easy trade here played off the previous channel that lead to the NFP. Taken off of the 4 hr for thus one

my alarm went off this morning and I Iooked at my trade from last night and was trying to change my Sl but I clicked the wrong order and closed after i saw what I did I just went back to sleep I figured it was needed.

Taking this off of the top of the window tired and going to bed and with the move leading to this it might continue up

I took this same area earlier that was a plain loser. Now I got a better entry and she just ran. Nabbed a clean 71.8

been working way too much lately its taking me away from trading but Im about 3/4 of the way to an account that I can try and go full time I think now.

Here was what I saw as a consolidation wave that appeared to be breaking down took a low entry had a trailing stop that took me out at 41.2 missed my TP by about 27 pips from the low at 6146 made a little more than 1% on this could have been a little more than 2% if I was up seeing green pips in my dreams so off to work now

Good to see you post again! I was wondering where you went...
Thought I'd share the same trade setup I took.. set and forget, My tp hit while I slept...
Always enjoy your posts
Good Luck on that full time trading goal!
Cheers

Here is the Gu I was looking for a continuation on the down turn and it worked out for a slow 16 and change at almost 1%. Feeling a little trading rust haven really had any time to trade lately and this felt a bit forced. I had an entry set at 6060 for the GU but I got impatient and took 45 and then I was thinking I should avg at 60 once it hit there but I chose to hold on my position and let it be. In the end this one worked out but I could have had a much better position with enough patence, Luckily I read the chart correctly and got some green pips.

the second here the Euro again I had a higher entry set at 4200 but took 75 way to low but I saw some slowing in the market and got greedy ended with a small 3.3 loss

got bored over the weekend and ran into a thread by niceguy talking about a 7 pip strategy I got interesed and looked into it basically a small time frame wave riding idea. It was full of indies but the basic idea is very interesting. So here is the 5m had two impulsive waves for the bulls that lead into the TL being broken thought I caught an area yellow high light that was a little low to enter a short. Now I got stopped at the trendline which I should have waited on coming because now it is tanking from that point. What a oser at a dime a pip lol. For me this can reinforce areas of entry because if you look at the chart there are three reasons why i should have waited fo the top of the TL. 1. top of the keltner 2. horizontal area at about 6158 four recent stops 3. confirmation of the break of the TL. This lead to now a 20+ pip drop which was what I was initially looking for.

this is not a set limit yet but this is my plan for a trade today looking for price to come down to the 73 area and will set a stop in the 53 area not sure itf it will return to this area but price has broke up and looking at least one move back up.

ran into this one this moening right about time to go to work that drives me nuts. Well I took my entry while I was on the road I took a look and this phone version of charts drives me insane it does not show the current candle and Im basically blind saw it jump up about 6 pips instantly and then it drew back into profit then back into the negative so I felt it might be better to take it out at the next time it got green. Since I cant see the candles I cant really evaluate the situation. Im a hands on trader need to see my progress. Needless to say I took it out at +3 and got home and noticed a clean easy winnner that would have made the TP with ease.
