may have suppressed price action for a while and hover between zones. sellers are still in control of this pair. where is the open interest - bulls/bears?

made 16 pips
A circle means target was hit (green=profit, pink=loss)
A light blue triangle pointing up is a long or a buy and an orange triangle pointing down is a short or a sell.

Knowing myself, it was good that I had to leave otherwise I would have closed earlier.
Still fighting with myself.
Every rule has an exception. Except for this one.

Since you asked so nicely I will try.

Now I have a request as well.
The way people here post a trade, it is almost impossible to tell what was the entry time.
Is there no way on MT4 (which seems to be the trading platform of choice here) to put a marker like Oanda does (which is what I am using)?

Hi Gabe, once you see price and the way a entry and a proper zone you should not need more to get the gust of the trade..You still making it too hard.. You look at my chart above w/ most all at profit or at even. Most, if not all entrys at key zones of reaction..... How does time make it relivent?
Price is, not time....GL!

Well, just to add time is relivent towards market time of momentum, for sure and one must find the right time to enter the market...

I am still strugling with the idea of adding to a loser.
With markers it would be easier to understand wether a 2nd and 3rd entries were once the 1st trade was profitable or they were just ADDs to a loser.
You might say that it is irrelevant and that the end result (which many times - if I understand the trades correctly- end up as winners or BE at a minimum) is the important fact and you may be right, but this is what I am interested in because that is how my brain works while analyzing stuff.

Thanks for your commment anyway.

This is something we all struggle with. I do it all the time, leaving my MM open to 3 entrys. My first entry is not always the best price, like RED , I try and drop my bad (or not so good one) first in profit and set others at even. If it is sweet I'll add more.. Hope this helps
