OK. I will go first. EU +50 +60 +40. Chart says it all.

Sun is shining this weekend so I can catch up with some chores outside CU next week.

Hi Dee,

Struggled today, not thinking straight and took a couple of incorrect trades, so confidence down a bit, but will spend weekend licking wounds and trying to compare what I traded with your charts so thanks again for posting. Could I ask why you moved to a 5 Pip Renko ? Is there a trigger which makes you think this is more suitable

Glad for any help

Cheers...Des

Night before last I changed to a 5 pip chart to see more of the days PA, yesterday and today I forgot that I had changed to a 5 pip chart and traded what I saw, it was only part way thru the last trade today that I realized I had been trading 5 pips not 3. How is that for a technical explanation???. But just to calm your nerves and to give you something to compare to here are the 3 pip charts of today. The difference is, all of todays PA fitted onto one 5 pip chart where as it took two 3 pip charts.

Try double clicking in the RH price column, looks like you may have inadvertently changed scale.

10 + 15 = 25pips. pro traders make a very good living getting less pips so give your self a break. I do not recommend self flagellation but other forms of self abuse are ok.

Hello Dee,
great thread here, really lot of stuff that make sense. But I wish it would be so easy like the name of the thread . But let me be a little bit skeptikal and critical.

1. I was trading today the morning breakout down as well..It happened with the 3rd attempt (Starting with 7.30 CET). How can it be that you picked exactly the third one. Is it something that I missed? I must say the first 2 attempts cost me money..
2. Your second long trade...what is the reason there? It is just support there what I see, no obvious 123, but I can show you some movements recently where your long trade formed a double top and went down. So for me no other reason for trading except hoping for a rebound. but as we all know..if you hope..you loose
3. 3rd trade I see just the break of BRN. The same happened on 25.03 at 13.30 CET but the market went down after 10 pips.

Don't understand me wrong, I follow this thread for a long time, I hope that you really take your posted trades, but somehow for me it seems that we're speaking here after the fact is done...

Good questions ! ... but maybe I try to answer how I see these trades on this chart.
Dee50 takes SHORT when RED SUPPORT LINE ( 5pip) was broken down... he waited, look closer and U see that his SHORT is below that support line...

2. Your second long trade...what is the reason there? It is just support there what I see, no obvious 123, but I can show you some movements recently where your long trade formed a double top and went down. So for me no other reason for trading except hoping for a rebound. but as we all know..if you hope..you loose

Second trade is according with situation on 10pip renko chart... Direction is UP... and he takes L when line is broken UP.
What Line ? The Downtrendline on 5pip renko chart.

3. 3rd trade I see just the break of BRN. The same happened on 25.03 at 13.30 CET but the market went down after 10 pips. Don't understand me wrong, I follow this thread for a long time, I hope that you really take your posted trades, but somehow for me it seems that we're speaking here after the fact is done...

3rd trade... there is consolidation and after break UP this consolidiation ...he takes L.
why Long ? because 10pip renko still shows UP DIRECTION.

so... more patience and patience.
... lack of patience is sometimes my sin too
When I am "mentally" tired and I want to earn fast money I take position before market do something...
