I like the trailing stop on half of the position, it's like I cannot lose after I get stop to breakeven, and I cannot feel bad about missing a runner at the same time As far as monitoring a 30 minute chart, that's not at all what happened here. I ...

GBP/CAD by any chance? I traded this one as a sell limit order @ 1.6500 very big round number. After I was in the trade, it looked like I was going to lose... and then a gigantic 30 min pin formed and I had confidence again S/L was originally ...

at first I didn't like the EMAs on my chart, but lately I have noticed more and more how they help add to confluence to decision making. Using the EMAs alone is not a good idea, but combining the ema with other factors = effective.
