The only reason I wont go on that level is if I see something more interesting at the time somewhere else.
Absolutely!

There are 28 currency pairs to choose from, just with the majors (USD, EUR, JPY, GBP, AUD, CHF, CAD, NZD), so we should never limit ourselves to ANY specific pair.

Yes I post mostly on this cable thread, but believe me I watch them all, because there is ALWAYS something interesting happening on this pair or that pair, on any given day, come rain or shine.

I follow six right now, that seems to work for me. I'm trying to trade less, so less pairs is a good way to start.

You truly believe that trading less is more profitable, in the long run?

Do you think casinos will make more money if they stay open only a few hours and accept only a few customers, per day?

Yes, I believe so, especially for short term traders. Pick better levels, or better setups, and trade bigger. Be stingy with your trades.

Not sure I get your casino analogy? Who's the casino?

Friday's bottom of $1.2525 plays a key support role, which should limit downside potential. As long as that isn't broken, look for a further rise to $1.2605 and even $1.2625 in extension. Alternatively, below $1.2525 would turn the outlook negative and call for $1.2495 and $1.2460.

What I am saying is that if you have a trading edge (like the casinos), your optimum strategy is to search for your winning trading setup everywhere, not just in 6 pairs.

This will not only diversify your positions, but also give you MORE trading opportunities, regardless of your time frame.

For example why wait 2 weeks for the GBP/JPY to touch this or that level, when the AUD/JPY is currently giving you a buy signal.

In other words, the trader will miss a lot of trading opportunities if he limits himself to a few pairs only.

More trading is more stress, more risk. I want less of both. Our edge is in waiting to see the best cards. Then hammering it. That's my line of thought.

That is true.

Quoting PayTheLimit
more risk
Trading more frequently does not increase risk at all. Do casinos take more risk if the gamblers start betting more often? Of course not, they just make even more money.

Anyway, thanks for sharing and take care for now, I am off to bed.
Bye all and trade well.
Over and out.
