Hi guys,

Sorry have not had much of a chance to get some charts up this week as have been quite busy with a few commitments on.

Hopefully next week I will get a bit more time.

EURGBP daily short is the only open position I have at the moment and still looking for it to move a bit lower.

after struggling 6 trading days, finally my usd-sgd SLo was hit during the intraday today for BE today the usd was strong to shot north, even thou we saw 2 good reversed PB! (i went short due to the bearish engulfing candle the day before the arrow pointed)
Hi nba,

BE is still a good trade in my eyes. Frustrating indeed...... but its still better than a losing trade, and if you have followed your trading rules then well done.

Hi all,

Posting my current well running trade,

Entered on the down arrow due to there being a previous bounce on resistance. Has workes out very nicely for me so far.

In posting this I do need to mention though that since my last post I have had one losing trade on GPBUSD and a breakeven on the AUDUSD.

However if this closes it will put my account up for the week

cheers,

an upper wick is seen... now awaiting to see a good bearish candle, closing pass over the low of last 1 or 2 daily candles would be gr8 (imho).

Nice Pin forming on the USDJPY 4H,

If it holds Ill put an order in under the low,

Only worry is for the weekend, but I have never really taken the weekend into account for backtesting...

Hi all,

Just a general and quick question.

Who do you guys use as brokers, all brokers seem to be loved and hated, I just want your experience since you guys don't seem to blame losses on brokers.

Cheers

Have placed an order, Planning to put a trailing stop on this one since there is not next set or support.

Lets see how it goes.

Basis, Trend following with Price action in the form of the pin bar.

Wish me luck,

Feel free to comment.

It had a nice run up. I was looking for a 1-2-3 reversal on the 1 hour chart.

E/C looks ripe. Nothing bullish about it to me. Bit of a mover though and a bigger stop needed than E/$.

Good thread, long term trading is not exactly my strong point, more of a scalper myself, however keen to expand my horizon, and do less screen time no doubt about it.

Profitability doesn't come from more trades.

The way I see it, the GBP is holding firm after a recent break above some congestion.

H4 certainly showing some bullish candles with higher swing lows as far as i can tell.

Would need a Stop below 6400 on the H4 chart I would think.
