London open started in a push pull kind of mood but gave a nice seed signal at 10:27. My pending was set and was soon into the trade it wasn't long before price touched my BE point. Price continued towards my TP but soon retraced and closed the trade at BE.
For the rest of the London session price was stuck in a thirty odd pip zone and it was interesting to see how the strategy kept me out of the whipsaw movement that so many traders hate and loose money. see chart below.

Re: Seabreeze Journal
US session was interesting but no trades for me. There was a seed set up at 16:36 but price had moved too quickly away from gators plus only showing one dark bar at the time on AO, so I passed on this one.
There was another set up at 17:21 and 17:22 but again for me price had made too much of a move down too soon, so another pass for me. 17:30 marked the end of the session when price moved back into gators

Re: Seabreeze Journal
The London Open started off with some really nice movement and a good pullback on the fresh peak of AO then printed a tasty looking seed just below the green gator at 10:12.
Price didn't go far after entry and reversed to my stop allowing me to pay the rent. I followed my plan and scored DS1 so in my mind was a successful trade

Re: Seabreeze Journal
What if I were to say that the new update will have shown only the one signal at 10.12 and the rest automatically filtered... no temptation no mistakes...

Re: Seabreeze Journal
This was one of those New York sessions when the market just wanted to tease me and never really gained any momentum I had a seed setup at 15:31 just after the two cherry set ups but again momentum failed and so a rent was paid but DS1 was maintained so happy chappie.
There was another a seed setup at 15:59 but I passed on it because for me the seed was a little too far from the gators and proved to be a good decision as it didn't go anywhere either. All in all pleased yet again with my discipline.

Re: Seabreeze Journal
On opening my charts in the morning session I could see we had a nice wave 5 forming on the 1M chart and open gators on the 5M chart, but both charts had TZ1 close by so even though a seed signal came at 10:21 it was ignored and I was left patiently waiting for AO the re-set before considering another trade.
Finally the AO re-set and a fresh peak and pullback of AO produced a seed and gators and momentum looked good on M5. I set my pending and soon deleted it as price closed below seed. Soon after a cherry set up appeared and everything was still in place I set my pending order and was soon into the trade and hit BE point but then price reversed to close at BE. A little unlucky with this one, after touch of BE price continued up to TP soon after but its all part of the game.
AT 11:50 another seed set up appeared but because the two previous set ups didn't show any real momentum I filtered it. Decided to
wrap up on the morning session at this point.

Re: Seabreeze Journal
US session started with a bang and moved over 400 points in less than fifteen minutes, but after letting market settle and re-set itself a seed set up signalled at 16:40 After setting PO was soon in and out of trade very quickly for a quick 2% profit, If it wasn't for the ATM would have missed the TP becaue trade was very quick it just touched TP for a millisecond.

Re: Seabreeze Journal
Not much to report this morning in London Open. There was some volatility around 10:30 with a nice pullback and seed setup at 10:39 but the pullback continued up an PO was cancelled.
Markets are waiting for NFP right now and so a I.

Re: Seabreeze Journal
A few minutes late getting to my trading desk due to a nice soak in the bath and fifteen minutes mediation for the 1pm open.
On looking at charts was just in time for a lovely seed set up, after a nice push down an a pullback right back to green gator a seed signal appeared exactly where I like them to be, with open gators on both 1M and 5M, PO was set and off the trade went soon engaging my stop to BE before slightly pulling back and then turning round to hit TP for my 2% and satisfied me for The day.
