{quote} Trade is sitting at about +15, so I'm going to BE now because the PA seems to be struggling a bit. So all risk is removed now and I can sip my coffee and see what happens

My divergence is bigger than your divergence.....Well, since divergence is in the air I thought it a good example.
......only +12 but have to put it in safety mode as reversals always happen in 2 minutes!!!EDIT: make that 1/2 an hour......SO at BE.....now with a better entry......
{quote} Well I guess that is one way of doing it PM1.....but I think it's a bit too risky for me to try. No matter how valid the signal, the market can always go the other way due to many reasons....some muppet yappin, some news event that wasn't forecast or whatever. I can see exactly what you're saying, but I don't think I can do it!!
Just a thought.....PM1

{quote} great trade jalkok....did you enter only on the 15min? Jay p.s Jalkok was it time of day which helped make your decision to exit the trade?
Entering was on M5 and M15. Both Genesis and AscTrend were RED on everywhere, so I could not stay away. The Stochs had a very big mouth too... Exit was 16:15 my time here in Germany because I had enough of looking after the Charts and the results were okay. (I didn`t have anymore patience
...)

At least 20 pips a day (or more...) will do fine. No greed and no fear, cut the losses, no hesitation and don`t be reckless. Take your profits and do it by GENESIS...

Did you enter the EA trade? It's a counter, so not sure if you entered that one, i did.
I entered an AU trade.. Failed. Right when Euro opened too... Meh, cant win them all. Then the EA trade came.. Paper trading Australian cross pairs, not my precious EJ heh.

Here is my proof for the trade: Closed +33.5 I will post my AU trade too, or i might not.. Pending after dinner. This week for me was hell... Since last Friday, boss was dicking me around and it affected my trading (real account). From Friday to Wednesday, i was pissed off and emotional, that equated to losing tons of money (nearly seen this months gain go to nil!). Then on Wednesday night, i read part of the book "Emotion Free Trading Book" located on the front page for the Genesis system... Went to sleep visualizing my winnings and earnings...
You're making all the right moves Hunter.....we have to be cool, calm and collected to be able to trade well. If we're pissed off, for whatever reason and a trade goes against us, we get even more pissed off and the reality is, the market doesn't care!! In order to trade without emotion (or at least under emotional control), we have to be happy...first!
That "Emotion Free Trading Book" is a good read. I'm not sure that I buy into everything it says, but there are some real gems there too
