I realised that this wasn't a reverse trade setup.Candle wasn't coming from the HH. Being stupid to trade ffs.
Even with this day is still positive.
P.S. 60 please comment on this what do you think.Thank you

Hi guys... I think you have it... just remember, my rules are for structure only, a way to control my actions when the emotions of trading are affecting my decision process. The entry really does not matter (this next bit is important!) - you can trade every breakout of every high and low

Thanks mate, just got to figure out the finer points of trading this, need to get my head around if the market takes you in, let the market take you out, always used targets /levels before so got to get use to this rule, no idea about what you have mention about the reversal trade, being the wrong thing to do,
Thank you 60 for you wise words ( you can trade every breakout of every high or low ) simple words but very true

when it comes to exits there is only really 2 things to consider.

1. If there is profit on the table it is never wrong to take it off - it may not work out being the most profit you could of had, learn to accept that.

2. If you have risk on the table it is never wrong to manage the risk - make a judgement based on what the market did not what you want it to do.

This system will give you a constant stream of opportunities - you don't need to have the best exit, you just need an acceptable exit.

Here are my trades today, you will see I took every breakout - was my exit the best? No... was it acceptable? yes... after I exited did I get an opportunity to get back in when the move continued? yes...

Nice strategy. Thanks for sharing, Darren. Catching up with the thread. This is GU at the moment: I'm not sure what happens with the buy PO now... will it stay there and the stop will be moved to the lower low that just formed? Or shall we just delete it and wait until a new setup forms? Thank you

are you looking at trading hi/lows? hi/lows and reversals? or just trading every breakout?

Well, the order (blue line) was placed on the b/o of the reversal after the 1st low formed. I suppose though your reply means the order will need deleted LOL
So practically a new low voids the previous PO, is that right?

On a side note, I suppose the 100 promotion is over by now, isn't it? Pity I discovered this thread only now...

still 12 slots left on the 100 promotion.

yes, once the next bar closed - the long from the low would be cancelled - and a reversal short would of set up on the next bar

Sorry, I'm still half way on the thread so it looks like I haven't got to the reversal bit. Gonna grab the promotion, thanks. Keen to know more but basically you just enter on the failure of the new formed low without waiting for a higher high to form? In a few words we should be short now?

Edit: sorry, we did have a higher high which didn't take the long. Similar to this trade http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...44#post8501644

2nd edit: and now there should be a hedge in place. I hope I got it right.
