I got a late start this morning, I was busy helping as I am a caregiver. There's a lot I missed but one thing I saw was EU nearing the completion of leg2 of a MM so I scalped it long. I don't really like to do this, I'd much rather find the flag and ...

Good morning all. I see MM all over the place today. Some completed, some with potential. It'll take me some time to sort out the one or 2 that may move.

I lost for every reason imaginable. I quit a few times. The most recent quit lasted 3 to 5 months. I slowly withdrew account funds down to almost nothing. I traded 2,000 once a week or less. Then while cleaning out a shelf, I found an old notebook ...

What makes You lose in the market?

It just went to where my target was, but I was burned out, I let my emotions get triggered so I started to fail in my management. If I was calm, I may have let it run another 5 pips, which is where it is now. So on the psych side, I now know that ...

I just took it here. Flat maybe a tiny gain on day not sure yet. Too much stress for what, maybe $20 if I'm lucky....

EJ had a way better MM w completion of leg2. Ucad up had a decent MM also. EU here is giving me overlap stress. Starting to move a bit now so this is the one I'm in so I have to stick with it.

If the prior 5m bar with the bottom tail breaks, there is a chance that a give-up bar forms which would be a decent drop. If I stick to the MM target projected down, then it's about 15pips down from 1.29 area.

I got whipped. There is an entry when the MM flag is broken which causes a retrace of leg1. So I killed off my short, and went long on the potential leg1 RT and flag break. Then, that potential flag break was retraced also, and even steeper and ...

So far all I've done was make the spreads, I don't really like this any more since I'm impatient as a trader, but it also now needs a break, I also don't like having to wait for a break of potential support in an uptrend, so I may still kill it.

I haven't even set my bracket yet on this since I'm still considering if I'm going to kill it off, but here's my entry on it. Regarding correlations, ucad up somewhat here short term can help, but uj down would not, unless ej and gu have downward ...

Short Term Measured Move Method

I see a potential leg1 in EU that has some strength downward, but it's counter trend at this point, so it's definitely risky. I am short here on the potential flag looking for an equal distance down as leg one made from the recent high on 5m chart.

Short Term Measured Move Method

I short term traded the green line yesterday. What I missed was longer term fact that the black line had a very good MM and that was evidence that perhaps what the green line started, had a chance to continue as it did on the pink line. That was a ...

Short Term Measured Move Method

I exited as this move slowed down, probably a little bit early, but that's pretty much what I habitually do anyway. This is pretty rare quick success for me, I don't expect to see this happen as easily as this seems. This is pretty much luck that I ...

Short Term Measured Move Method

I decided to enter a very small sized lot here in anticipation of this move with a rather tight stop for a small risk amount. So far, it is going rather well.

Short Term Measured Move Method

ucad has news at 8:30, in 10 minutes. It already has a MM down into an area missing much support or resistance. I see the potential here for a flag forming so far since midnight ET US. I can see some potential for today's tight PA to break on this ...

Thanks. I'm talking about any type people watch since all traders contribute to the price action. I haven't even posted a chart yet, had some delay.
