Hi Nanitoide,

Nice trade, wish I'd been on 15m TF for that one.
Hi, stevepatt.
Thank you.
Later today was another good opportunities on the USD/CHF and EUR/JPY. Look at the pictures below.

Hi Steve,

If you have to go out when your trades are running, try to use EA named "Luktom visual order", it will move your SL to BE or partial close your trades automatically at specific price.
Hope it helps.
Hi Simplicity,

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out.

Hi Nanitoide,

Nice set ups but I only look at EU,AU and GU my preference is for EU but if things don't look good for trading on EU I go to the AU and GU usually one or the other will be trending nicely.

IMHO. You are right because M5 faster timeframe. It is difficult to monitor multiple markets. For multiple markets better M15.

IMHO. You are trading very aggressively. Better to wait for a good setup. If this setup does not. Then better stand aside.
We are scalpers. We must act like sniper. See the picture below.

Hi Jonnypants,

It takes me too much time to attach file (I usually get the notice that FF server is busy) and I can not attach more than 2 pics. So I have to upload on imageshack. Sorry for any inconvenience

Took this short, good 5m momentum and a good bearish pattern on the 1h chart.

The first chart is a 1h chart.

Hi guys,

The trading month finished. I think it's time to review what I have done and what I have not done well. This is my performance in February.

http://img823.imageshack.us/img823/6244/summaryci.png

Strong points:
1. No overtrade. I only took trade I was confident and truly accepted the risk.
2. Implimented better Risk:Reward ratio. Although my win/loss ratio was only ~40/60, I did not lose much.
3. More disciplined. I had 8 consecutive losses but did not give up or changed my strategy.

Weak points:
1. I have not been profitable yet
2. I was so picky and missed some good trades.
3. Took some Counter trend trades

Please feel free give me some comments. Thanks!
Happy trading

Hi Simplicity,

I think you've cracked a major element of trading Forex, sticking to your method even after a series of losses this is where a lot of traders come unstuck by chopping and changing their approach as soon as they hit a run of losses.
No method is going to be profitable every month but by having the confidence to stick to the method and becoming better at spotting the most profitable set ups things will get better.

Keep going as you are.
