OK now it is time to make some progress on my learning curve.
So if some of the senior members can give me some advice.
By looking my entry what would have been the conditions to make this trade as a higher probability trade?
One thing have been mentioned here already higher highs and higher lows, that was missing.
At the same time all other conditions were there we had second bounce off from S1, Stoch on all TF was positive. So what was missing?
Can someone also advise what your exit strategy is when the trade is not going your way and you are in a loss?

Higher probability trade are buy/sell with the H1/H4 bias..
Buy/sell above/below recent H1 high/lows with the M5/M15 Matrix offers higher probability counter bias trades..

Hi Kristjan,
Not much wrong with your Long entry: yes we had been going down earlier but by the time the signal came we had been ranging for 2 hours, as you say nice retest of S1, all the higher TFs Stox (M15 ----> H4) were nicely positioned at the bottom of their range, you got the Arrow too ... yet you 'disobeyed (lol)' one of Genesis basic rule/basic PA:
"Set your SL at least a few pips below the recent low (6160)..."
Your SL would have survived intact as even on the 3rd dip we still didn't get below the original low

Thanks. What immediately catches my eye is the m5 stochastic. When you entered that trade the stoch was almost at 80 level, yet only 5 candles back, it was at the 20 level. That in itslef is not such a big deal, but what I don't like is that those 5 candles are very small candles, and yet look how far the stoch traveled. Also, the M15 stoch was very flat......not showing too much interest in going up. And finally, a long trade was against the trend.

Such a trade could work, and you can see that right now the PA has gone up 30 pips.....but that doesn't change the fact that the set up was not a high probability trade, and that's what kept me from entering. It was more of a gamble than anything else, and I'm not here to gamble!!

Am I sad because I didn't get those 30 pips? Not at all......I'm happy because the decision to wait for a high probability set up was the right thing to do

Sorry Oli but SL was supposed to be under 6148 - 4-5 pips because I read 6160?

Thank you
When I put my SL then I took into account the last low but what I did not take into account was the sort of spike that happened before the trading session.
I will keep that suggestion also in mind when entering a trade.

if i were to counter trend trade, i'd prefer entering only when it's high probability.

if you display your M15 stoch it will show you that that long trade wasn't high probability. but it doesn't mean it can't win. being picky does mean missing out some good trades too. it's just that in my head, i'm investing real $ and real emotions. i want my 100 pips and i will place orders only when it's high probability.

You're right, I mistyped (I looked at the wrong candle) and SL should've been below 6148 instead but the rest still stands and the setup was even better 1 hour 50 minutes later on the next Long signal (M5 Stox was better placed).
This is a good example of a trade setup that can be viewed in a different light depending on what is more important to each trader (see RJ's comments)...
