my definition of a trend on any timeframe is where is price in relation to the 34wma + which way are the candles going most of your questions - the answer is 'how long is a piece of string' and i do one analasys, a visual one and the same on every ...

you got it more or less yes. regards targets after pouring over tons of data i found that the best target was 20 - 30 pips depending on the pair. so that's generally what i take. when i'm hedged or in bigger i still want 20 pips although i will ...

agree 100% I dont tend to bother with anything higher than Daily. i purposely wont trade a pair if the daily is at extremes or at possible stop hunt area's itself - and you are right about mistakes too - it is most often if i've made a mistake in ...
