Batch 1 REVIEW

Unread post by eaxh »

Batch 1 review.

A bit hard to review this batch.
I have not really done what i said i would in the beginning. In a good way though. 
I started with the plan to take trades on the major pairs with the benefit of dropping down to M5 when a H1/M5 was setting up.

This batch has taken two months to complete and during that time i have settled with an very objective and easy way to look at a 
setup and deciding if it is worth my risk or not. 

So the ones that i saw as valid in the first half of the batch i would have been iffy about. 

Half into the batch i decided to have a seperate account for M5 and take bach the HTF emas and the 5/10 ema template. 
I now have the same template on my M1, M5 and H1 trades and i can now 100% work on my cute setups in a moving market. 
When i do that its easy. I have confident in my setups and trades and there is less confusion.

Results. 
The Ds score is a bit hard to assess as my rules changed along the way.
Profit +5.7% (risking 1%)

i will continue to work on my h1 trades in the form of T20. 

I guess you wonder where my M5 trades are.... They are coming up too.... sometime :)

 not the best
 

 
I can tell you a better trade then this would be, simply log in, toss a coin, if it's head,s go long, if its tails go short with 20SL and 60 Target point.

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.

I don't need to recommend anything to you but if I were I'd say, focus on core 3-4 markets forget about crosses and too many pairs. It does not help. 

e.g. my choice is EU GU UJ DAX DOW DAX

I am 100% with you on that. 
On the small account i am trading H1 on i cant trade them... too little money ... so i will change some to indices instead once i am going for a bigger account.

Trade 4

Unread post by eaxh »

Was fomc in the evening and as the market usually stay rubbish before i did not plan to trade H1 that day.

BUT, UJ had made a CUTE S1 and then the most perfect hunt setup so i set an order and planned to look at it a couple of hours before the news. 
I got out with 2R. There were levels up there so better be safe than sorry.

I love this template... with this template... if you add this rule, take SEEDS ONLY when entry is outside of the BOX... OMG it will amaze you. Banana will ALWAYS be inside the FRESH BOX though
