- Patience patience patience...Waiting almost 5 hours to get the right "alignment"!!!
- AIMS is really excellent to spot the right entry!
- EW gives really the structure of the Market

I see you're predicting waves.... Warning (bells and Whistles) Warning (Bells and Whistles) Correct Course (Bells and Whistles) (rofl) \m/ (hug)

Lets promise to Stay in the Now.

The moment we stray from the 1 Sec EWave analysis and go in depth we start to dig a hole for us. We get into the area of "Ungrounded" analysis. e.g. one can argue that may be the whole move down on daily is 1-2 and the same 1-2 down on H1 with PC confirming the 1-2 down on H1. Or it could be something else. So what shall be we... oh well, use eWave for confidence and if you think that it "feels" to say this is 1-2 to upside, then go for it, because we are only predicting, and thus we should always be ready to accept if we were wrong... thats all... ENJOY Enjoy Enjoy

Immy,

thx very much for the whistles bells alerts warnings!!! To be honest I am very far from being able to count EW...My only purposes are:
- enter using AIMS rules
- make "quick" profit (e.g.exit half)
- then decide for the follow up.
---> if possible, apply AIMS rules
---> if not (which is the case here, since I took the trade countertrend, and price did not yet go above LINES) decide whether to exit or to stay. Then I try to know where price is...then decide. Fully agree with you that this is just a guess, so if price goes the other way, ok as well!!! e.g. if the price goes in my direction, then it will go above LINES...Then AIMS rules apply!!!!

Once more big thank you for your ongoing support!!!

Comments
- could not see any opportunity in the morning, so no trade (N.B. this does not mean that there were no opportunities, just that I could not see any...)
- right on time to capture EU move
- when rules get fulfilled, "things" are suddenly very clear, clean and neat!!!
- the funny thing is that this routine has become...a real routine, kind of I do it without thinking, just do it...
- done for the day, back tomorrow

Comments
- as mentioned in the chart, I could have added more = 2 missed opportunities. Honestly I did not see them, just saw them afterwards
- also the exit. = I exited since I count down waves, and it seems to me that the last impulse down is wave 5 of this wave 3...meaning price should go into wave 4...Yet there has been no divergence between PRICE and EWAVE, so should have stayed in...Well next time :)
- I really love this way of trading, one in the morning, another one in the afternoon; only when visible set ups, with no stress at all.
- Also outstanding is money management, which "speaks" % of your asset, instead of just PIPs...

---> AIMS is definitely absolutely GREAT!!!!!!!! I can't be but grateful, so grateful!!!

Back tomorrow early morning...

- exit all very close to my target
- chart below
usdcad-m15.png
Comments
- with time I learned to be very selective = only take "clear" set ups; and if many of them, choose the one which appears most promising
- I repeat myself I know = PATIENCE PATIENCE PATIENCE, and if set up still not there, then stay aside...

remark = I could have added upon the SEED. Did not do so because SEED was very close to my target

- It is very enlightening to wait/oberve = you can see how the price "figures" unfold, which is both informative, and help to consolidate your knowledge. In fact "observing"/waiting is definitely NOT passive!!! It is fully part of the trading!!!
- I know I repeat myself = when a set-up is there, it is OBVIOUS. You know like when you do a puzzle, you get the right pieces of puzzle, they completely fit perfectly together.
- I need to improve on trade follow up, specially EXITING -I tend to exit "savagely"...- I'm currently geting back to basics = establish my target, which is my HARD STOP (as is my SL). Then exit if cross of GREEN LINE (if already divergence between price/EW) or RED LINE...I need to stick to this and not reinvent the wheel!!!
