{quote} Never make your sl the exact point of any other level. Always shift it away. I move it at least 3 pips, never on a fib line / support or resistance / pivot. Always remember the H4 levels as well.
Same here. I put my SL 2 pips away. Sometimes that has proven to not be enough haha.

It's typical for a Monday. Also add in the fact of the coming red news and the market will wait...

I've had 2 +1 trades this morning that after hitting my +1 turned right around and continued to make their way to my TP levels. Kinda frustrating lol.

This seems to be one of the tougher requirements of this strategy.....to learn to accept these +1s when price stops you and reverses round for many more pips

Yes I agree. I am frustrated but I will stick to the trading plan. That's why it's there.

Shutting it down for today.

Very bad day for me. -63 pips. Every trade I took either triggered and hit SL or only went to +1. Try and recover tomorrow.

Focus on mastering HOLO before considering bending the rules.

When you get a day like today, it's inevitable that they have been as a result of breakouts - Yes? No? If yes and you are getting one following another, then something is driving that price action, so time to take a step back and have a look around. See if you can figure out what the big picture is and if there is a road you can see to guide you out.

Failing that, there is nothing wrong in taking it on the chin and saying you're done for the day and you'll be back tomorrow. We have all had days like that.

Flush it. You'll be good.

Yeah the ones that lost were breakouts. But all on different pairs. Only one pair had 2 back to back breakouts, then after getting stopped out they seem to have gone into a range anyway haha. So it is what it is. Maybe I need to reduce the number of pairs I watch.

It is no coincidence that every futures index went through the floor today as well. One of those days. The difference was, the indices were phenomenal 1-2-3 trades.

You are only to trade ONE PAIR until you master HOLO.
