I see you guys making pips, thats awesome.

Slow monday for me.
I did take a few trades here...

3 trades
EUR/USD for -2
EUR/USD for -1
USD/CAD for +8

I did see some points on EUR/USD that were floating, I think the most I saw was about 4 to 5 pips in floating and was able to minimize the damage. So I took two trades and lost very little.

Ended up taking USD/CAD and bought it but I waited as it took out the lows and waited about 20 pips to look for my entry. As I look at my matrix there was two lower levels. at 05 and at 01 so I waited for the lowest, I ended up getting filled around 05 ... it made a quick jump and was able to get some points out of that.
It was one of those moments where I should of held longer. No worries, we really never know, but as long as we are ready and prepare to accept the outcome then pips are pips... still green for the day...

Bit of a tricky one today - chose the trades carefully sounds like you did the same ..
Pound dollar took a high so playing that out for a buy later on when things settle ..
Pips is pips as they say ..

Was looking to get in at that 1.1340 level and because we had news coming out at 10am est. I passed up on the trade... I've had my fare share of losses when it comes to scalping right when news comes around, so I like to wait for news to get out of the way, and let the market show its hands. It worked out though. But I have my rules in place and I am staying Discipline.

Was able to sell EUR/USD, I am sure there were stops that needed to be take out around that area, but it was not enough, the market did tanked but I noticed it had to reach big figure before it was willing to go lower...... either way by that time that happened I was stopped out at break even. I saw +5 pips in floating and that gave me the ability to move my stop...

Because it was the end of my trading session I did not want to give anything and in the end those are my rules, as soon as I see +5 pips I like to move my stop to break even. Lowering my risk , kinda like how I did yesterday, where I took two trades and was able to get out for -3 all together.

At one point of your trading journey you will begin to realize that protecting your capital becomes your priority... ( of course as long as it falls under your rules, for trade management.) The Winners will come.

So here you are Dean...

U are right. Seems elbert is lurking in GU thread - he just posted there recently
I am looking to buy GU for counter trend trade but gotta see what NY will do later
On M30 the TD buy setup is ready, but on H1 its only halfway done... lol.

Been happy with the GBP crosses (more "action" there).
Closed GJ shorts from 162.2, am trying a small long counter trend there 155.55 (nice number i know lol) and so far, green

Take care.
