Hi Boophaty,

Was reading the thread and I just saw your reply.
You don't trade online asian breakout only but also trendlines breakout then ?

Here is a trade I took last friday on e/u (m15 chart) with a london open breakout.
I entered with 0.5% on the first break and loaded 1.5% on the retest.

Cheers,
LhDT

hello IHTD.
very good job on your breakout!!! awesomeness!!

No I trade breakouts I dont care if its Asian London or US.. I trade breakouts! Mostly I trade the London breakout... I showed the trend lines to show you don't need anything to trade breakouts.. They happen everyday.. i added the trend lines in to show the direction of the trend... If I do a reversal I have to make damn sure Im going to make at least 20 pips from it or its a no trade... To be honest with you if you are starting out with an account of less than 5k fu*k the 2% rule... This is how small traders make it big! You have to know what you are doing.

Thx. About MM, I like to keep strict my 0.5 to 2% whatever account size. Of course big account with a 0.5% risk gives a bunch of money (per day).

About your previous trade, I think it was a bit ambitious but finally it worked pretty well. Great !
If you entered on the next candle after the break, this could be easily bounced back to support zone around 2229.
Well, that's my toughts on this. E/U made some lower highs, higher lows so in a triangle pattern. Means for me it can go everywhere, north or south pretty quick and the pairs trade in the middle of the support/resistance zone (red/blue lines).

Where was you sl ? Last low 2295 ?

Thank you IHDT..

You know trading this way for years its really just second nature... As far as bouncing back I like to look at a few candles that I call power hour candles... they will show you what direction the trend is going in.. I DO take losses.. I have tried for years to get this 100% but I haven't yet... My SL various from trade to trade.. typical I keep my SL at least around 10-15 pips.. IF I'm wrong I went the wrong way and re enter the correct way to gain my pips back.. sometimes I have to go as high as 20-30 SL to make 40-60 pips... Yes EUR/USD is going every where... Everywhere will at least give you 20 pips!!

These trades I make are not luck of the draw.. they happen every single day! I Don't even think about trades bouncing back .. you can't.. either your right or your wrong... If your right you made some good pips.. If not get your as$ in the other direction to make up what you lost ... lol

Thanks boopathy for your replies! they are great. I only trade breakouts on the gpbusd at the moment. I use indicators on the eurusd when i day trade. My Risk:Reward ratio on breakouts is 1:2 plus a few extra pippies. SL can range from 15-40 pips. Im interested in your eurusd breakout method as i often struggle to make breakouts profitable on the eurusd but seem to be fine on the gbpusd

Ha that's funny I could never trade the breakouts on the GBP for some reason.. I've only really studied the EUR pairs... Yeah I don't use indicators, but I do use price lines S/R S/D.... I do have a box breakout method for the us open that I traded for years... updated the hours to be traded and the timeframe... non the less very profitable if used with S/R.. Gotta run for a bit but yeah I'll post it here.. it's not quite the 7-9 but hey It's a breakout ..lol
