Thank You Sir! and very well done. I must say, your win loss ratio is incredible. That is a job of experienced trader. You have developed a feel for the market that comes only with exposing yourself to years of charting and trading environment.

Hi Richard,

took the same, but entered earlier and exited earlier. Do you strictly exit on opposite dots ?

Hi Richard,
Your journal makes interesting reading and good to know you're having considerable success. May I clarify something please ?
On the higher TF trading, earlier you've said that you use a fixed SL of 20 pips and then for exits trail and exit on opposite dot.
So am I right in thinking that with your adjusted aims box sizes, some being as high as 100 pips, your SL is definitely NOT the other side of AIMS but very much in the middle of the box ?

Thanks & Best

Nick

I usually have a fixed TP of 20 and just let it hit that. Today I am at home all day and changed the TP to 50 so that I can manage the trade. I got out on the black diamond, had I left the TP at the original setting I would have gained more pips.
