Hi everyone,

Just got back to my pc after shutting up for the day at London close to see the damn EU has set up and moved more than once. It seems to be the pattern of the last few days that NY wait for everyone to leave before deciding to move price. So no prizes for guessing what will happen when I will be watching after the close tomorrow…. Lol

As for today 2 trades using the flow chart :

1. -4
2. +17

Total +13 pips

Evening,

Was on call today so missed the afternoon drops but did manage 1 trade (+24) that caught the drop just after London open and had lady luck watching me as price gapped past my TP and took me out for 3 pips more .... lovely...

Hey Grant.
On trade 3 you mention after a treble AIMS break. Are you referring to a "3 level" AIMS break? I had to consult the dictionary on that one. Nice.
Since that particular wave was already 5 candles in travel, what was your main attraction for this trade? The potential burst of the treble break?

Thanks for all the diligent documentation. Good trading.
Herbert

Morning Herbert,

yes at the time of entry the PO was just below h1, m5 and m1 levels so thats the treble.

The trade was within the parameters of the flow chart, admittedly only just in some cases but it also was just after NY opened (forex not stock market) so i factored the new incoming info arriving from them. It just didnt play ball this time.

cheers

Ok thanks Grant. Yes, that trade had huge potential in that scenario. B-)
The NYSE, DJIA opening direction/momentum is also a great source of additional momentum info.
Some call it the DOW trade.

Hi Grant

Thank you for taking the time each day to update your journal

I would be grateful if you could confirm if my understanding of your trade management is correct

S/l 13 pips
+3 pips move s/l to high/low of trigger candle
+5 pips move s/l to -4
then trail AIMS or 5 consecutive coloured candles

Many thanks

[Grant]

Morning,

I'm glad my journal is a help to you, it also helps me with my discipline, taking only the good set ups knowing that you and the other members will be seeing my trades...

the only difference to what you typed is i move the SL once the trigger candle closes not at +3...

other than that change you have it excatly right

cheers
