Batch 3 Summary
DS score of 90% (18/20)
5 trades BE
10 trades -1
5 trades +2
Net outcome for last 20 trades was a Zero
This was a struggle to get 20 trades. It took forever. Seemed when the market moved, it jumped before settling down. Not a good scenario for Setup 1's, even though others had enough entry opportunities. The next batch of 20, I will add Setup 2 to the mix, although looking back at other charts, it seems like there isn't very many entry opportunities for that either. I will also add some currency pairs on H1.

Re: Kevin's Journal
@Kevin thank you for sharing your trades and the outcome in your latest post. Again it shows another proof of the method. Whoever tried it, it comes out with same results. Isn't it fascinating? That's how it should be. Congratulations of keeping a high DS. It was painfully long . I know.
So
DS score of 90% (18/20)
5 trades BE
10 trades -1
5 trades +2
Convert those BE into 1R, you have 10 Rents and 10 Winners. The very same method will be required and you will have be able to catch up to that 5R average per batch in 5-10 batches.
My suggestion: time to add Hunt Signals.
Dax M1 is a great spot for those Hunt Signals.

The Consistent Pursuit of DS1
The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".
I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.

Result: R1:R-1
Comments: Finished a W3, new box. I'm having trouble with new SL, as the box was 14.5 pips. If I would have stayed with the box for a stop loss, it would have kept me in longer. As it turned out, it wouldn't have mattered, as the price dropped.
