The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".

I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.

Spectacles chart reminds me of the old 34 stuff. Except with added seeds, cherries and 'new peak' filter....

These are the times when I trade the M1 ... it does not matter what is the result of election or brexit... it matters if there is volatility...

great session on Dax

Yes, it's a chaos introducing situation! I didn't trade but only because of a late night at work. Otherwise stretching the 10pip candle size rule and just trading the system could have done very well....

All cracking setups on M1 :-B

Immy, I'm sorry.

I know that this isn't DS1, but please grant me the (retrospective) permission to allow these two entries as S1/break of range/market open trades at a unique and highly volatile time, both managed correctly as per risk and stop loss, and then with some intuition in allowing a winning position to run and not limiting potential through a 2:1 fixed TP.

But given this set of 20 trades this has to be recorded as a DS0. Maybe I need to incorporate this into my trading plan.....
