Hi RJ, This is an interesting concept i.e. that an index of a range of USD currency pairs has an influence over its constituents. I've inferred from what you've said above that if the range is broken it will drag its constituents with it. You would ...

Exited this trade at BE after I entered with a rush of blood to the head during a 15m bar. I'll wait for H1.

Well done RJ. I've missed the big moves of the day unfortunately. There'll be more coming along soon.

I was too busy with EU to notice EJ. I'm 7 pips late and with the ADR line and weekly pivot just ahead I'll err on the side of caution.

My brain cell has been put to sleep by this morning's tumultuous price action. I didn't notice the 2 Daily opens close to my entry so I'm out for 2.7 pips.

I've noticed the times that you post and wondered if you sleep at all. (Perhaps you just hang upside down in some dark corner of Chicago.) Caffeine is presumably your drug of choice.

My gut tells me that I'm not happy, so I've exited at +0.5 pips. It's probably because it's too early for me.

It moved too quick for me to post after I entered. GU buy resulted in +21.1 pips

Yes thomi, it's difficult. The thing that keeps me out of the market when there isn't a good set-up is the thought of those 10 to 15 pip losses (or more) that come from those poor set-ups, and how they erode the joy and the pips of a prior winning ...
