Highest Open / Lowest Open Trade

Shorted GBP/USD, +1 pips(Counted the price that barely didn't hit +5 as it hit it, so I moved it to +1). Is this spread too large to be trading with this strategy because it seems huge compared to the Sl and TP levels. If so, what brokers would you recommend with low spread that have a demo account. You can also say them if they don't have demo, so I can use it after I switch to real account.

The spread is huge because you are trading on Easter Monday! It's a bank holiday, guys. Why are you trading?

Do most of you guys come check the chart every hour or how often or how long per day on average do you guys spend looking for these trades. I think I am going to start up on the one pair one week challenge for EURUSD but want to know how often to check for a valid set up.

Good morning, is this valid entry? Took it in demo. Trigger was 15min chart, the 5-20pips TP/SL are expert's default settings (changed those by hand later)
Trade closed at 5pips (6.5 including commissions), when price "retraced".

I'm trading multiple methods and so will have a general idea of how price is behaving across the board. You can do a quick check and tell if a set-up is likely any time soon.

A good thing to watch for is price making a new extreme - and running a 1-2-3 excepted, you can then be waiting for a retrace and a possible HOLO set-up after that.

EDIT: I do realise that operating around price as it makes new extremes is not for everyone - and you obviously also have the option of finding a steady, ranging, market. This will give you multiple opportunities, though not necessarily the longest running trades. Horses for courses.

Looks good to me - but hey, don't take my word for it, or anybody's word for it for that matter. Run your checklist. Does the trade tick all the right boxes? Yes? Then it's a valid entry.

1 trade in gj in the morning (before Frankfurt open). I didnt even got pic when took the trade. Shorted gj at 50 with 1st target at 44. When price moved tried to move my tp, but wasnt as quick as the market and trade closed. (I believe that trade would have closed when price retraced later)
Didn't take the trade at the hammer, because hadn't opened the pc that time.
Edit. This was a wrong trade. The actual one might have been at 37-38 (not so sure).

Did you make entries from sell/buy stop? or trigger from finger ?
