cut your losses SHORT my friend... LOVE YOUR LOSSES..

no reason for you to be in the these trades regardless of out comes unless you prefer to fall into the HOPE and PRAY syndrome.
counter punch it... if it punches you, accept it.. than get up, jet eye to counter..

just a brotherly advice my friend..

Analysis on why a lot hit SL in GBPUSD:

Based on my backtest analysis SL at previous high is not enough because this is M5 chart.

GBPUSD SL for this trade should be place at 1.6161 hold it and the trend will turn down soon.

Above just my analysis..lets see how it go later...

Spreads seem extremely wide atm with my broker. Seems a bit thin FWIW

Check the original post with my uploads, it mentions how to set the alerts (F3 Global variables)

Thanks John for your speedy reply. I'm using Kevinator2 and I cannot find any alert settings, I'm quite sure it is the latest version.

whatever work for everyone according to their own MM..

for me it would be a NO NO for wide SL..
I cut the loser short bcz we are after momentum release.. once its there you get in without much hesitation and once it don't pan out to the plan and no show of release.. i bow down to it and accept the small loss.. but keep coming at it again and again and again.

just my personal approach..

hopefully third time is a charm..
this time i waited for the RF went with a pending order 2pips below the bar close..
PA is not showing much momentum for the short MOM trade.. but at the same time its weak on the bullish too.. so with 4hr trend behind us still.. its worth a shot to me..



edit.. -13 on this one too.. np... next

You are right! Minimizing your losses and just move on to the next trade. It will spare you a lot of stress. Believe me, when you are hoping it will go one way, 99% chance it will go the other way... Murphy's law. Save yourself the stress.

have a peak at m15 and look at the PA within the TMA on M15.. you'll see why GU went up as it did.. (went below lower TMA on M15, so naturally it'll go up to look for upper TMA - might be a PB up for the H4 downtrend)..

Five hours past in a 16 hour trading day.

I am here but am scanning the market and managing trades.

Punisher....trading is like tennis "you do not have to win every match to win the set".

This is like a test of will for you new traders.You can stay strong and keep moving or quit and give up.

I have been trading these setups for months now and will continue to trade this way.

I am here to answer any questions or concerns you have.
