A/U I couldn't post 60 range chart earlier as it was still moving up.

the modest 60 range has almost been made. Even though the actual adr is approx. 90 i like to look at modest range, Similar to taking 5 points.

edit,, time 08-54. A/U broke 04-00 low as I posted this. Nothing stopping it now dropping to the 7450 area. I am not trading it.

Lovely day but I wont be planting any flowers lol no garden. Seems like the asylum has got the inmates back but maybe a bit early to tell.

4500 on g/u is becoming annoying. Not sure what to do which means do nothing.

I keep popping in and looking at Cable. I thought it might just go up and maybe trade off the 04-00 high, It hasn't happened so PC is shut down. See what happens after NFP tomorrow. I might ping you.

Have you ever had 3-4 losses in a row?

edit. I found the answer

"Hello Davidrp, longest losingstreak is 3 but most of my losing trades are corrected so they do not actually lose. I have had losses where I just let them lose as I had emergency and maybe had to go out but then following trades would recoup it back."

my stats will show 3 losses in a row but that is a very long time ago. I will get long runs of winners maybe 10 in a row but mainly 5/6 and then I can adjust the lot size accordingly.
Method I am actually trying out has amazing stats. If a 04-00 candle trade fails it will almost certainly trigger the opposite end for a good result. For instance yesterday on A/U the high broke (and failed) but low triggered and was good. I took a few points back then went out. I was that confident.

morning, No trading for me today. Cable 04-00 low looks like it should break and A/U has a big range which I probably would not of traded anyway. Take care if you do trade NFP day

edit, A/U the 04-00 range is 37 which is not that bad but the 00-00 was a big range too (83) that meant the daily range was over a 100. It would not of been worth the trauma lol. WHEN IN DOUBT STAY OUT.

I cannot believe I was reading in the middle of the night about USA employment and it looks like expectations will not be met. IT WENT STRAIGHT OVER MY HEAD, it meant nothing and it put me to sleep

You have always said that when there is a big range is more difficult to correct a bad trade. what are the reasons behind that ?

MONEY...... also with big range you have more chance of whipping and even different levels being hit, ie you may pass dp then r1 or s1 reach a 00. They do go in but it isn't worth the trouble I just wait for the next day.

edit, I just realised, I am speaking big range on the 4 hour candle. The daily Candle is a different matter.

Cable 04-00 low actually failed but the high was good then Nfp and low was good again lol, it is still a fail. I didn't trade it.
A/U was actually good with low break, and no trade by myself.

Well hopefully that's the end of that. Not been a bad day up 2.58% which is ok all on cable. Hey Mr T has some reading to catch up on.
Just got back. Mowed the lawn and was gpoing to read through the thread, delusional posters and all. But have to sit in garden with Mrs T now -she has made a cup of tea and enticed me out into the garden with a choccy biscuit. :-)
