Stopped out. I have to look back to see if I could have managed it better. Pattern, time of day, trade management, etc.

at this point in my trade it is the final chance since EU&GU are forming a complex 2 leg pullback, they would both need to follow thru down, not a bad entry for a short, and UJ would need to hold these lows, but as we know, they often run these ...

added, killed all, re-entered same as initial entry since it is holding short term support area and dip in both EU&GU but it isn't yet responding so if those two gain traction up, I'll be killing this again, not going well.

if the trend bar on the 5m doesn't hold 50% I'll be killing it before stop since that's the trigger I based entry on

I wrote that while I was semi-conscious from putting off lunch, I was definitely writing that to my former self, as if I was able to correct my past, when I was in similar situations, about 10,000 times. Spreads improved but only a little. I'll ...

holding the top of the range is interesting, but the spreads right now are not, time to take a break

we've had trends within this week's range, so far. These little trends have been shorter than the week's opening trends within this range. That means decreasing volatility for the very short term. This current leg on the 15m chart is at a potential ...

before entering a trade, we typically have a plan for what to do if it develops a profit or if it is going wrong. This trading plan exists so that we have a guide and rules so that we always know exactly what to do in any and all situations. No one ...

up to 111 from lows of 110.5 area. news said, "tentative" without a time so I guess this is the time

USD/JPY Discussion

I didn't take the move up from 2240 area, now pulling back to there fast, so it may pass it and get to the low of the range around 2210, at that point I may watch for support move back up

I'd rather trade EU/US but this morning it was in the middle of a range, yes it was trending, but GB/US was at the edge of a range both with my own long bias, so even with a wider spread I traded GB/US (since I am more skilled at trading support and ...

nice trend leg short term, these happen less frequently so I'm not used to trading them, which is why I didn't re-enter at the trend leg pause, really nice follow thru up for a measured move to the hight of the short-term range capturing any of that ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

nice little pop over 39000 rather than a pullback, so that took it to a very short term prior high (1m) so I figured since I have no patience, that I'd take the fleeting gain and exit fully out of my position. also if I remember, some small news at ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

sold half of my tiny position for a scalp at 39000 likely some pull back here so I'll advance my stop to BE on 2nd half that was filled at 3893

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

break or shake? that's the question. ok looks like a break of small support area, but I'm not short, still flat so far I may miss it totally but if it pops back up over 1.38900, I may take a long

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

I just watched since it was too smooth price action for me to consider, without 3 shakeouts I'm not in, oh well

EURUSD

I was looking to short the 1m or 5m but nothing set up it just slid I can see it go to 2220 but then no setup there either

EURUSD

l lost a little on it but killed to save before stopping out. I entered long too soon after it started to move up from the resistance breakdown. It had another leg to go down, then it moved back up from that support area back up to the resistance ...
