I think, that i should exit earlier, but can`t find any signal for such move.
You have correctly pointed out that if you wanted to add on, your entry was supposed to be "as early as possible" if you see principle c and then wait for AIMS Break there is no point in seeing PC. 8-} IF this was a H1 chart you would have entered your trade around 60 pips later than the actual point of entry signal. We have to be careful with M1 charts. We gotta be very sharp thats why we have to keep it ultra simple. well done anyway! cheers

Immy, i will try to get used to m1 style of trading. Too much to learn..

Todays NYO open was pretty fast.
My behaviour could be explained by :
1) Not very successful LO trade.
2) W5 nature (according to what i heard)
eurusdm5.jpg
And absolutely uncompetent GU trade..
After this rent a started to analyze and realize that there was no setup. Just a hope for breakthrough M5 box.. And i got it, but fault breakthrough.
Be careful with you desires!

And last one trade only prove, that the best trading setuo time (for me) is FO|LO or NYO. Within first hour amazing setups appear!
Plus i was in a pretty bad mood, so may be such agressive way of trading is a result of mind.
Rent. Even AO was good, M5 open mouth (but W3 seemed to breathe out).

A very nice post my friend. I'd say this about your first pic... below

About the second trade I'd say, you put it very nicely. I've done that too. "we jump into future" and then we do in the now, that is not suitable for the now.

3rd one, if you're mind is not at peace, if you're not relaxed, do not, I repeat, DO NOT allow yourself to trade. Relaxation is the key to successful trading. Paradoxical but its essential.

I will keep in mind about TZs!
Thanks a lot for your advices. I will upgrade myself and become successful!
Really like your what you said about "now"! The most profitable way of trading is to trade in now!

Hellow everyone,
Todays LO was a rent for me.

But thanks to this rent i undferstand, that i`m able to be in the right state of mind only 1st hour after LO|NYO open yet.
Btw, exactly whithin this perioud best setups appears (for me, of course).
I like fast impulses when you are able to get 10-15 pips in 10-15 min. I think this is my style of trading, so i will try to build my trading strategy basing on these factors.
Despite the lack of static data with AIMS, i could analyze my 1st month here, and all foresaid is based on really good results.
Could be that such way of trading will cut my possible results, but the only thing i need now - stable depo growth.

Should this trade be closed earlier?

NYO was also a rent!
Setup was ok, but NEXT!

P.S. I am not sure that it worth mentioning, but today was the first unprofitable day with AIMS. Hope, it was last :D

Nikita,

I took the same EU trade as you and had a full rent as well. The GU trade was entered a little late in my opinion, and I would have trailed Aims to reduce the loss. I would have entered two Aims boxes higher if anything and trailed Aims as soon as one was formed :)

Nice trading though - you have to pay rent sometimes!

GU - i was waiting for M5 breakthrough. It was also Principle C, so tried to insure against vibrations..

So i think you are right, we must buy our success!
Thank you!

Good evening guys!
Today had to skip LO, so "A catch of W5". After yesterday drawdown, need to feel, that AIMS is still working :)
Due to market condition, TP=1.2% growth.
