DislikedPlease know I was only kidding with you....Honestly I have had a shocker this week...and 2 scoops it was probably a mixture of the new tdi AND not seeing the signals.........I guess we are all going to get these weeks.
2scoops.....I didnt mean now...but that candle on my chart is now changing colour and pulling way back....it still has nearly 3 hours to go until the next one.....I am hoping it has fully turned by then. I didnt mean jump in now.....just one to watch.Ignored
Nightmare week for me so far.....Every trade went against me
Guess I have to put this week down to experience...

I had mixed results this week. I had 5 largish losses in a row on Tuesday took me down to -8%. I'm learning hard to take losses and let them not effect the way I trade and see the market. But had 2 great trades selling the Euro yesterday after the USA GDP news, and one good trade selling the Euro this morning that has left me +10% for the week.
I have now been trading this method for 2 weeks (only 8 trading days though) and my profits are +21.7%. And that is using correct money management- I only risk 2% per trade using stop loss of largest recent candle (usually around 30 pips) and compound up and down with winners and losers depending on my lot size according to my stop loss. Been an emotional week with my - 8% but all good in the end so far.

I started out the week pretty Rough with a total of <215> pips Draw down. I Journal and take a snapshot of every ( Live) trade I take so it was easy for me to look back and Try to fix the Hole in my pip wheelbarrow . I apparently am not wired for trading the H1 Chart ( I mostly trade D1,W1 MN Long term stuff) so the H1 is like the M5 or M15 to me apparently. Once I dialed in on the problem I ended up making +450 from the H4 and D1 charts so Total for the week = +235 pips plus a fixed wheelbarrow 
Another thing I want to say ,and this is directed to the "newer" traders. It is absolutely critical that you apply the forex Basics that everyone on this Thread keeps reminding you of ( S/R, PA, R Numbers ect...) or your account will suffer. The TDI cross is not an automatic On/Off switch to enter a trade. The cross just gives you permission to analyze the pair to see if it makes sense to enter a trade. Good Weekend all.
Take Care
EDIT Didnt read you had already said a lot of this 2Scoops Sorry
