Captured EJ ranging for 40green, I like her 'cat ears' look, confirmed candle convinced me even though tdi looked not so appealing... {image}
well done!
I was only able to get 20ish on the same ride, all good anyway!

have a good day

interesting.... I didn't put on a short until the LO so, I'm a few pips behind you. EJ sure is flying south right now !

update: closed EA short at -15.... didn't like that PA wasn't falling away from the close of the previous candle.

So many posts, and all great to read... congrats everyone... (either winning or learning )... I was watching GU yesterday (threw in a light trade over the Asian session... got BE) after the LO, and red news (stop hunt time, right...LOL!!!)... It was in a congested state and I was waiting for an opportunity for it to break-out long - a bounce on the 1H/4H - looked good on both, and the D1 (it had retraced 61.8 on W1)... I think other TMS'ers took this so that makes you feel good Currently +47 & SL set to BE(+Comm )... (going for 90...
Ok, I'm out on SL +45pips : before I left the chart it had broken the 58 round handle and got to 80 pips so I set SL to 45 with 90pips TP, came back and bang! Out! So far, 100pips this week, about 20pips drawndown, 0 lose

{quote} Thanks. The trading mastery documents that Emmanuel posted and the Dr Tharp book i'm reading flicked a switch I think. I realized a few things and made some rules for my business plan. 1. I can take my time 2. I wont let the chart make me feel pressured into taking a trade 3. If in doubt stay out 4. Check weekly, daily, 4hr charts, S/R and daily range 5. Always Pick an exit point BEFORE placing the trade

Moretti12, they are long-trapping GU - did you guys go short at any stage???

hahaha... trade your plan, Sknight1. I still don't trust the moves during Asian open, even though I got lucky sometimes.

IMO the best feature of this method [as was illuminated to me by Lastingwell] is the reliability on entry. So my MM strategy is focused on this - will not always workout but so long as things lean towards green then no problem
