saw this nice signal just before LO. entered in and it went in my favour for nearly 1.5R then bounced off from previous support. Luckily i knew the level to the left and exited with tiny rent -0.19%.

After few weeks of dry run, finally best trade of MFF challenge came yesterday. As whole world knows, UJ is keep going up and has offered so many opportunities on H1 if you are actively trading since last year. 

During my morning analysis, i have noticed retracement on UJ previous day (20th Oct 2022). Price retraced and bounced off 50 EMA. It then created new higher high followed by small pullback candles. Now this qualifies for the Banana setup as per flow chart. I spotted small seed after signal 2. Didn't waste time and placed pending order. Yes my setup was during Asian session but patten has given me confidence and there was fresh cross EMA as well. Instead of keep missing opportunity and regratting later on, i have decided to give it a try. 

Trade took around 10 hours to hit 5R but i had no issues with that as i was enjoying time doing other stuff and actively checking every hour. I was out in dessert bar enjoying some dessert with friends and noticed it hit 5R. I was ecstasy and still am. Can't get over this trade, just came at the right time. I feel like i am closer now. It was also a great Diwali gift as this weekend is Diwali. Can't get better than this.

Wishing Happy Diwali to all of you and your family. 

Thanks Banana, Market & Immy. 

PS. Today morning i have noticed Japanese intervention came later on and it reversed sharply dropped 500 pips. 
 
 
 
 

 

~Hi Sam

I was hoping you'd have caught this or later the seed. Both trades were awesome The seed went up 15 R. 

I was scared of UJ, hence i Missed this (the seed) and another seed this week because i was scare of this intervention. Glad you're feeling the POWER of 1:5 ...this is the SECRET... the Banana method is not a joke. No wonder backtesting showed 10K turned into 1.3 million. There is great potential , sepcially on UJ. 

Happy Diwali... to you and your family.... I hope you've had a great day...

ps: will Eng Beat India? Will India beat Pakistan? .... Man, the T20 is on , in your country...

I liked Netherland team. They played really well to qualify for Super 12. I am going SCG (Sydney Cricket Ground) to watch India vs Netherland this Thursday 27th.

Finally day has came. We saw EU, GU and UJ moved nicely on late US Session 25th Oct. Thanks @imi for early warning about famous. Famous used to my bread and butter. My elite performance came from that strategy as i have managed to double not only single but three personal accounts at one stage. 

Since morning i was on top of it and kept checking charts every hour. I only had 10 days left in my phase 1 challenge and account was 5.45% up so i was pumped up to go for setups and finishing challenge.  My first attempt on UJ failed which costed me 1.40% (actually risk was 1.33% for 3R but there was some slippage). But with famous setups i have noticed that behaviour in past. 

I went in again as it was inline with HTF perhaps best H4 setup. After a while UJ start going in my favour and hit BE and eventually hit 5R target. Very satisfying. Challenge was done by that time.

Why i traded GU ?
For few reasons 1) I only had 10 days left in challenge 2) it was bloody famous setup which has high probability. This was calculated move as i placed order when UJ hit BE so i knew i will accept BE if price reverse from that point but at the same time i did not want to miss best setup (my A setup) on GU    .GU also hit 5R as it was on auto pilot while i was having dinner outside. That was freaking two in a row, just like the feeling of back to back sixes in cricket. Lol felt like a King Kohli for a second. 

I had a mixed feeling as it came after a while and lot of hard work went in there. As you guys might know this already that i am part time trader with full time job. My job is demanding and it's hard to get additional time for trading but i made it happen as i want to go full time on trading career in near future. i am very much used to balancing both job and trading as i have been doing it for a while now,  thanks to my time zone. Yes i am happy and overwhelmed but my main focus is to get through Phase 2 now. 

I will upgrade this and start Phase 2 as market is trending well and offering so many opportunities. All i need for Phase 2 is that one magical 5% trade or may be two trades with half a risk. 

I would like to thank you all for supporting me and encouraging when i made those silly mistakes and failed during first attempt. I love the vibe of our AIMS community. I wish you all similar success in future. Just go for challenge. 

Thanks Immy for everything.
 
 
 
 

 

Well done Sam, so deserved!
