Joined you...73.
Pulled another 10% at +15.

And another 20% at +20.


Final 30% can run. Will reload south if we see some more north.

I could be wrong.... One level missed and a move below a low?

And a reversed Cloggie pattern on the 5 plus London closing here in 4 minutes so expect some more profittaking after this run here.

add some rum to it
Tried rum, it doesn't taste as good. Nothing like boiling some tobbacco and mixing the condense extract with glycerine or olive oil, add flavour of your choice. I add honey or chocolate syrup.

Momentum starting to fade with way too many bears still on board. Let see if 1.435x holds for a choppy close otherwise back to test 1.428x....

indeed, this 67/77 area was important, so I took a crack at it, never got my 76 and 77, because that bastard gator was selling at 74......think I'll bid 30ish...

just back to my office.
I got my target hit at 1.4361, +104pips.
It's been a wonderful 3 days for me (closed 2 shorts at 210 and 190 pips each yesterday), not bragging - just enjoying the moment and taking the opportunity to thank those who, through their posts, are helping me in becoming a better trader!
All the best
Well done mate. Totally agree with you.
Bagged 180 in the last 2 days and 100 (various trades avg 20-25) last week.
I think it's starting to come together - but been alot of HARD hard work!
A pip is only worth it if you know how much you risked to earn it

Don't see what I post as a direct entry either way, I closed a 110+ pip trade at a logical point on the board and the clock. I am letting London cover some of their book here to see what materialises afterwards. I am not shorting this yet as the fundies are still pointing up, just watching to see where and when the techs realign themselves, not just for a 10-20 pip trade but for another 100 pipper. I am not interested in scalping consolidation areas and am not going to leave a 110 pip trade open past the close here.

The main reason I am not going to short here is in the paragraph above, I don't see a 100 pipper in the making yet and am not going to short the covering here for a lousy few pips, I can't scale into them, can't use the market's money and the r/r is not to my liking. One only needs to find 4-5 trades a day across the major pairs for 100 pips each to do well in this business. Just about every major gives you 2 major moves each day, you just got to find them and exploit them.

Well. I wouldn't recommended trading against Cloggie.

However, if you are trading H4 and daily you shouldn't be listening to him or anybody but your own trading plan. In H4 you missed the train already and in daily you still have the close to have a map for tomorrow. Why don't you focus on your H4/daily chart and map what is going on and where you will potentially load or wait for the daily close to plan your map for tomorrow...

My 2 cents is don't go chasing trades like most newbies do in FF (even if they are 100% valid) that there are not in your trading plan. You may get instant satisfaction but the price you will paid in the longer run in the confidence in your trading plan is way too high.

I am waiting for my next order to arrive.
Expecting mine today.

Meanwhile I am enjoying a Tiramisu. It is supposed to taste like some kind of Italian dessert which I never heard of. Mellow tobacco flavor with just a hint of coffee and sweet chocolate in it. Very delightful.

Thanks vlady,

Yes, still a long way to go but we're getting there.
It's been painfull learning at times and lots of evening reading posts (and books), but prospects to make it happen have been looking better recently (much to my wife's delight).

Like you, I'm eager to succeed. Definitely the toughest thing I have done so far (even when I compare to some "moments in the army").
- I'll give it my best shot.

There is no shortcut, it's time dedicated to it that helps and also traders like the few I have selected in my buddy list that have been of tremendous help to me. I think none of the books I've read on the matter taught me as much as they did through their posts.

Tricky's creative accounting was my trigger, I did not pick the bottom and missed it by 25 pips or so, but made up for it by scaling into the winner.

Hi Chicky
Your shorting decision 2-3 days back worked good
but i was on demo those days. From today im good to go with 1pip spread

its my wish to carry one long term trade along with daily scalping. if my trade closes at BE, then again i'll go for long. if this one continues, then i'll start scalping with the daily target of 25-50 pips.
Hope

Covering is starting to consolidate, decision time for those trading the late session here. Let me reiterate though that there are only range/scalp trades on the table here and not something I am going to partake in. I have had a real good share of today's move and am content with the result, time to call an early evening here.
