Immy !
It's comforting, that you do something like that also !
Had a nice close for the day: 12,5 pips which completes more than 2 % today .
Till tomorrow !
Bettina
Edit : I also hesitated because of the wrong side Alli, but M15 and H1 gators were so widely open. That's what made me taking it.

Re: Bettina's Journal
Hi Bettina, mind if I ask what was your exit reason? Nice exit at least even though we got a rent.

Re: Bettina's Journal
Hi Tomi,
after having analyzed a lot of my trades I try another strategy, similar to Grants, but even sticter : I don't let them back into the box, which was my entry level.
So, if I enter 1 pip below the aims level , my stop is 1+spread ( = 2,5 ) above it, makes a risk of 3,5 pips.
I very very rarely had trades, which retraced into the box and then made it again. Most of them made a block dot and left me with -4,5,6,7
But - just a try for some time !
