Yes I did. It was near zero, but it hadn't crossed and done the pull back for W4.
Reminder to self, don't get too complacant, the market has been running, but its even more important to follow the rules and don't undo the R's already acheived.

My Feelings and Analysis at the time of entry and afterwards: - Red dot, bigger box, PO on. Started strong, then it flew. BE quickly. After discussions with Sam hit the Tcandle button on ATM, locking in profit as I went. Wick of last red candle didn't trigger the TP, so out at candle trail. Got just over 2R, good result.
What would you have done differently: Happy with this trade

My Feelings and Analysis at the time of entry and afterwards: - Checked my charts on Sunday night ready for the Morning, had this marked as one to follow. Blue dot. PO on, it jumped through my PO, so when I checked a few minutes later and it was taking off, I had to jump in manually. Adjusted SL to under green giving a bit of room. Made BE before I left for work, so hit Tcandle button to trail while I was not here. Home to see a 1R. Happy with that, and ATM had managed it for me!

My Feelings and Analysis at the time of entry and afterwards: - Was flicking between a couple of charts this morning, but this seemed the better set up, smaller box, gator good, purple correct. But after Tokyo open it changed direction. Out at SL.
Happy with this batch a good start to M15. Lets see what Batch 2 holds.
What would you have done differently: Should have waited to see if the next box came. Green dot not blue.

Thanks Jasmien.
Looking forward to seeing what results batch 2 gives me, before I get too excited that I have found my version of the holy grail!
I couldn't have done it and ridden the lows without our coffee catch ups! Thanks again.

Red dot, had been watching a couple of others when I spotted this, went to put PO on, it dropped quick so I did sell MO
End result was +0.25R
R result to date for this batch: +0.25R
DS score for batch: 1/1
Overall total R score: (all batches) +38R
My Feelings and Analysis at the time of entry and afterwards: - Red dot produced after I did my intial check. Spotted over an hour later. Ran as I was placing my PO, so jumped with Sell MO hlaf risk. was getting close to BE but had to leave, so set Tcandle button as I went. End result was 0.25R. Little better than the BE I would have got with letting it play out.
What would you have done differently: Was a good trade, but should have continued checking all charts on M15, rather than focusing on a couple at the times of each asian open. Entry should have been closer to box low, it would then have been BE before I left for the day.

Blue dot, wave had started to move long away from zero. PO set
End result was -15R
R result to date for this batch: -0.75R
DS score for batch: 2/2
Overall total R score: (all batches) +37R
My Feelings and Analysis at the time of entry and afterwards: - Blue dot, gator together. PO set. Had to leave for work so was not able to re check. Tonight saw it was out at SL
What would you have done differently: A couple of things, the blue dot was out of the box? so maybe this should not have been taken? SL due to box size could have been moved to under the green line, Rist would have been reduced.
