Herbert's trades for discussion

While druelling over the previous missed price movement, i ventured for a w5, slightly late entry, then missed target by fractions to return to be+ 1.7.
Ewaves TZ1 would have been spot-on. Was about to raise target to see extended w5 to london open reversal....

Nice One Herbert. Remember you can never get it perfectly right. Sometimes you'd make more pips than you should have yet other times less than you should have. Bill says, in 40 years of trading I never got it right.... so... Well Done

btw. i took 7.4 on that. Nick hit the TZ1 and got 13 out of it, (he enters a bit early)

Well said Immy. Good to hear cash registers cashing. And tell "the banker" I can show him how to post in the forum in case he forgot how.. )

As Immy mentioned elsewhere today, the last 2 days were not the best trending periods. Just when u do not look a setup snap to another congestion level.
This is my most dangerous periods when i start designing scalping techniques..... ~x(

Having said that, i missed 5 setups during the grind today...
4 x total 92 potential pips
1 x be

automation..... :-B

Back in business...
Took saddle approach both ways as setup was against close 200sma, 5min alli turning, 1min bounced off m15 ema and daily 21 (edit **AND 78.6fib**), alli and purple in da box. Closed manually between 100fe and 88.6fib.
+15

Experimented with a 5 wave sequence followed by "black diamond setup" for possible break-through on 200sma. SL to be+2 at first red dot. Price missed it by hairline, then followed sl with boxbottoms +spread, got taken out for +7 pips.
