Best kind of trade there. I couldn't seem to get my view turned around today. Such an idiot V... HH means HH, nothing more... Days are the worst when you are out of sync with the market. You'll have that though!

Well done mate. Great trade.

i had that yesterday. ended up giving back 4% back to the market. sticked to the rule. thought it was a good idea to stop trading, didn't take any action and waited for a nice and easy setup. wasn't expecting this much run though, but it's amazing that, sometimes, the easiest setups give you most amount of profit.

I'm currently working on an indicator that displays whether to be long or short simply based off of whether we closed above the last swing high. Same for short and swing low.

I apparently need something slapping me in the face lol

price alone should be enough for that. i don't think you need any indicator for that.

everyone has their own edge. piter is very good at breakout trades and scalp. i really suck at breakouts. i love trend trading, which is the reason why i trade this pair. if you are good at range, just stick with it.
