Hi Ganesh

Glad to see you transition to the Swing trading side, trading forex...

I'd like to note on this trade that it would be best to NOT intervene in your trading plan. Unless you're going totally discretionary with prfoit taking. The best way forward is to Go for at least 2 R profit...

As you know it later hit 2R... You don't have to be on screen to do this. Once you've taken a trade on the H1, let the ATM manage it.. don't mess with it. TOTAL STRESS FREE TRADING

have a good un

cheers

ps: I have seen a huge proportion of people SUCCEED on the higher time frames compared to the lower time frames. The higher the time frame the more people make consistent profits. M1 chart, MUST HAVE A 2R or 2Hr stop. 10 years experience has taught me that.
