Swings and scalps

This one the 23.6 wasn't to the pip but it never broke 0 and now it is at 423.6. I will wait before I move my stop up though, it may consolidate and retrace a bit before continuation down, considering this first butterfly is exhausted. Broke the ...

If it retraces it will likely stop me out so I moved the stop up to price to take my winnings. Deleting that old entry order. Hitting the sma 50 on the daily. Maybe a good short.

More fib analysis. The goal being to get in on the pullback and ride to the 423.6 (arrow). The fib is valid as long as the 23.6 holds, as in this case. This is the best place to get in risk wise, since a stop can be placed at the 0 or just beyond ...

Couldn't click the button fast enough, stupid platform wouldn't place the order right, with the delay, I missed getting in on the 23.6. Should have had a preset entry order. Perfect setup. My thought process was if it is going to reverse it will ...

If it hits the brown 423.6 I will stop out. Likely it will reverse at this point though, from the sma 50 bounce. I would like to enter short on a pullback but considering how gold spikes once this triangle is broken there may be no turning back to ...

After a little more analysis moved the stop behind the 50 level and added another short entry there. Also the move up is at the 161.8 so there is confluence in this general area.

See if it rejects the sma 50 on the daily. $2 risk. I'm thinking it's on the way to the 423.6.

Looking back at what the ideal trade would have been created another breakout strategy to maximize large moves. The first arrow is where I got in long when it spiked down. I thought about getting in short where the next arrow is, the 23.6, but since ...

Longer term correlation check. Looks like in general the sentiment is flood to metal and protection. A look at Switzerland shows the traditional view of safe haven. SP500 is at a crossover point, as is gold, so both may be in for a reversal. 6:30 ...

423.6 Targeted then closing this account and selling peaks on the 1000:1 leverage account. I still have other Oanda practice accounts.

Hoping it overshoots it just a bit then bounces off former resistance.

Measuring today's short play. Go figure, it stopped at the 423.6, right where I got out.

Swings and scalps

Deleting some orders. Never retraced to entry. A market entry with a wider stop would have been better.

How to successfully find the breakout fib study. This recent fib went to the top of the range and almost hit 161.8. Targets just shy of the level are likely best.

Swings and scalps

Triggered bottom of range entry, stopped out of fib entry, fib is now invalid.

Swings and scalps

Not as much correlation today. I did catch this move from the top and just took profit on SP500. Good day trade. It filled the gap and then some.

Swings and scalps

Hoping for a more precise entry on another test of the 423.6. Consolidation then rubber band snap to the average.

Oversold RSI.
