Nice trading Darren,

Great to see the 1:4 RR....

If i may, just have a look at the double IB 16 ish candles before you entry candle....

Both m1 and m5 allis wide open heading up, AO near 0, 2nd IB 1.3 pips, now take the same exit on that entry and your RR becomes something like 1:6 maybe 7.....

If taken, then your entry could be the ad on....

Just a little entry to add to your very impressive trading...

rinse and repeat

Nice to hear from you Grant - I hope all is going well with you. :)

I can see that entry - interesting stuff. I take it you are still trading the M1 IB's like you mentioned a while back? When you get a nice move then those small IB's can really reward you handsomely!

I missed so many setups this morning because of school runs and being away from the desk, but I did take an AU setup that wasn't the greatest. I was very hesitant putting the PO on and that should have told me that it wasn't a great setup. Oh well, managed to be a small winner in the end!

Hi Darren,

I'm going to hijack your journal for a few minutes to illustrate the point about the first fractal break for Nikita. Your trade shows it perfectly! Thanks mate!
