I took a break came back a little clearer headed and took this short for +12 pips, probably closed a little early as I got nervous about a retracement but at least I recovered most of my rent

Hi Everyone

It's been a while since I've posted a few distractions so apologies.

Took the following trade today for a b/e outcome, I took the double aims break but unfortunately the support below held so came out at b/e

Hi everyone

First trade today, had a smiley face followed by another arrow so entry looked a good set up with ally asleep and wave 5 potential, and a fresh cross of AO

Entry 12664 - result +4 pips, I exited early as I was concious of the M5 level - maybe should have had more balls but I take what the market was prepared to give me in the moment.

it's 0.4% bagged

Cheers all

Mike

First trade today as I missed the wave 5 earlier on EURUSD I took this wave 5 move on GBPUSD.

Entry had an arrow for the second time, fresh cross of AO and PA wise a lower high had formed as had a lower low indicating downtrend resuming.

Took +5 pips as price stalled at the 5 min low, maybe over cautious, but these 0.5%'s add up in the long run.

Comments as always welcome

Cheers

Mike

Well done.

It took me about 15mins of butting my head against again the wall trying to find the setup on my charts before I realise that you traded the GBPUSD pair and not the EURUSD I was looking at.

Looks like I am in desparate need of the weekend break
