this prolly was a worst trading week for swingers.
Thanks jerk.

Although, still plenty positive. I kept hedging both directions and getting stopped out on the return trip. Stopped a few +100, the rest were more like +10 short and long. Of course I just lost my longs today and I'm now in short. LOL. Stupid. Probably going to go back to the top of the range again and stop me again. I didn't load any longs this time either, so it will continue up now.

don't get me wrong bro. i love swing trades still, even to this day. i recently had a major disaster in my account beginning of last year, that kind of taught me be a hybrid. lol

we bounced at normal atr.. its common to retrace to the 50% area of the leg excluding the b/o pips. the bounce is the place to look for tired candles or other reversal signs. its Friday, shit happens on Friday.

depends on your TF ....intraday swings this week was great for me

if you were looking beyond that and looked for a trend continuation , sure it could have been frustrating
