Took EUR/AUD... The entry was simple as always. Wanted to do some experiments with exit and TP. After price moved my way for about +30 pips and made small retracement, i've set tight trailing stop 13 pips. Original TP was 50, but then i moved it to 60 and let the trade run to hit or trailing SL or TP. Trailing stop worked earlier and closed +40pips. If i didn't move my TP deeper, my original TP could be hit and i could got +50, but... Still have a lot to learn.

Congrats toledoFX! I am in the same boat - trying to figure out good strategy for TP - this is hard to do I think, every trade seems different?

Nice one , I took EA but had to manage the trade effective, I took it based on TDI and Elliot wave which so difficult , had big DD, and at the end it worked and TP hit +50

AT LO , I had a plan to sell EJ, so took an early sell, closed on pullback from RN with +30 , this trade is well taken based on TMS and cross of TDI

Thanks for your support and u r right about best friend thing.
Just to add the reason I changed my PT from 50 to 70 (in case anyone asked) since having a quick glance at H4 TDI crossed, ATR(7) =72

Yeah, I learned the hard way that when you trade against the higher timeframe TDI you get kicked in the teeth...

Thank you, mate! Yep, every trade seems different, but in general they are all similar. A lot of backtests and live trading will give you the answer what suits to you better. I just trying to minimize that situaions, when i have +30 or +35 and then get nothing when price hits BE. So i'm building my plan and after 10-20-50-... trades will see what's better and what's more profitable - to move SL tighter or just to leave it at BE area.

TheScorpS and Lorbax - thank you guys! Green pips to you

Thanks for posting this! What I would look for is a second entry or LH before even thinking about it (1H TF) but WDays is absolutely correct on the HTF support... this I learned early the hard way...
