{quote} i've been eyeing the gbp/cad too, hopefully with fomc today it can break the support its on....just waiting for daily close and crossunder of tdi, that baby has a long way to fall if it does
I might have to sleep now, almost 1 am here.
too much trading makes me cannot think clearly and impulsive.
actually I just mentioned it minutes ago in another thread, then afterward I enter GN just now, which was very bad call
wish you all the best, and happy trading!
E/A @H4 +25 and +35 pips -- 15.00 (gmt+1) Daily is strong long, so I decided to take this short knowing that my TP would be quite smaller than usual, namely 35-45 pips {image} So this was the setup, and at 15.00 (gmt+1) I entered with two orders at the candle-open: {image} Then I closed one order (bigger one) @+25 and the second one @+35 {image} I honestly suffered a bit at the beginning, it was ranging but then after one hour, as you can see from the M15 chart (4 bars later) it pushed down well. I was also short on GA but I closed BE just when...
I see 3 trades on EurAud or 1 with different TP.
What is the EA that you use?
Thx

Hey guys, hope you guys have good trading session last night.
mine was....horrible
GA Long + 45 pips (this is way before LO)
GU Short - 8 pips (because of impatience-ness)
GN Short - 39 pips (SL too small due to arrogance =.=)
GA Short +1 pips (again due to impatiance-ness i moved sl to be on a 4h tf before the end of tf, guess what happens next before price goes bearish again)
Grand total of - 3 pips .....sigh
now when i look at all my trades again...it would have all been a good trades....arrogance, impatience, and wrong SL will be the death of me
Greenb
P.S i call this self-sabotage

{quote} I'm long right now... target is the D completion area (slightly below), SL below the swing low. See my drawings added to your chart. {image}
I think out of the holiday season the market had taken the target .
I saw it today on the highway .. all empty , no traffic jam .. here in Frankfurt .
I had only one trade this week .. and it was a BE only ..
Tomorrow I ´ll look with one eye to the charts.. may be there is anywhere a rocket .., not sure .

{quote} Yes it's difficult, i generally tend to open all the possible good trades splitting up the lot-sizes, just to avoid excess of risk. As I said I normally prefer H4, but in the last few days I noted a more ranging/choppiness on h4 than h1, so I did some h1-trades. More frequently, it's the opposite. I think I will keep it as a "side rule" - when the market is ranging and choppy I switch to h1 which is a bit more smooth, on h4 it's difficult to make it reach TP at the moment. Just my idea... market can always change, maybe tomorrow i will prefer...
