I agree. I try to keep posting here as much as I can, but so many of us are in skype room. I would say at least 10 of us caught that trade, and either demoed it or lived it

Yesterday's reason for bad traps

For some reason my skype is frozen. However I hit my second winner on a long. It was nice to recover all of the weeks losses. Now I am at break even for the week. Little tired right now, so I am off to bed right now.

A breakout strategy, entering -3 pips from the low or +3 from the high of the trap offers you 1:1 R:R. (except on trap 5)

So, Yes that's it, 7 wins, 1 looser.

Lets continue to watch the trades.

I took trade 2 and trade 3.

I missed trade 1 because was busy watching another system and trying to follow 5 currencies... What can I say? It was a last straw, I decided to trade only Price-Trap system (I used the system several times during Asian and American sessions, I'm sure I can use it successfully at any time of the day). I also think I'd better focus on just one currency - Euro.

So I have a question: have anybody tried to trade only one currency? I don't mean this particular system, I mean the whole trading plan. I feel that trading only Euro will be good for me.

Is trading several currencies really much better than trading only Euro? Does Euro give enough opportunities, enough trades? I always traded at least 3 currencies, I traded crosses and British pound more often than Euro, and now I'm kind of anxious.

Thank you.

Didn't try other currencies yet.
I will focus on this one till have a few hundreds of trades to look. And then draw conclusions.

Yesterday 8 trades, today 3 until now. I think its enough opportunities.

Best to your trading.

Raz - Thank you for sharing the system.

Phneutral - Thank you for your time in high-lighting and posting charts; For those that can't make it to the skype discussion - it makes learning a lot easier.

Cheers and Good Trading.

Hey, all, I wrote a bit of a long post here with questions, and I realized maybe I could ask a favor, instead...

Would someone be willing to go to their MT4 History Center and Export their 1 minute data for EURUSD (as well as any other pair you feel is worth back testing)?

If you're willing, I'm assuming you'll have to email me the data because of file size, so shoot me a PM and I'll send you an email address.

Like my post says, I'm in Iraq and don't have access to a network to get the data anymore, and it will be a month before I'm back "home". So ANY help would be appreciated so I can backtest and check this out!

Thanks
