Gbp/usd 1 hr trade, looked good and met rules apart from entry was on 2nd break of aims boxes and AO was old but the 4hr was about to cross on AO to the upside so thought momentum would from 4hr would push it along and continue trend to upside. Went up 3 pips and then wiped out in 1 candle for 37 pip loss, .8%.

Watched the Bill Williams videos last night available in the 'want to share something section' if you haven't watched them then do it, it will give you a look at the bigger picture in terms of chaos trading and reinforces why we should only 'want what the markets want,

Gbp/usd 1hr trade, met my entry rules - blue dot - break of aims on 1hr and 4hr AO about to cross to upside. 4hr purple was sideways. Trade took off through the roof and was up 38 pips so tightened my trailing stop from 40 to 20 as it was time to cook the bbq here in oz - always trade better after dinner - the very next candle went down as quick as it went up and hit my trailing stop. +16 pips, .3% gain.

Eur/usd 1 min trade - wave 5 - market was shabby but set PO above 60 min high- triggered - result +1

FORGOT TO WAX THE BOARD
nz-usd 1hr set po above aims box on 1hr as 4hr chart about to cross 0 line, so essentially trying to jag 4hr impulse wave - Got triggered and was away from pc for 3 hrs - checked it and market looked pretty ordinary and trade was retracing to alligator - not enough wax on the board and slipped off with 5 pips, .1% only to see it build into a nice 1 meter swell. NEXT

No trading last 2 weeks due to work commitments and relocation - best of luck to everyone, back soon though and ready to paddle out into some big waves

Eur/jpy 1min, double aims break, followed aims boxes, did not exit first black dot as thought it was a possible principal c or my slight understanding of prin c, and stayed in and exited on second black dot for roughly B/E. Comment welcome - are there many traders following with the aims box technique?
