Re: Ralf's Journal
Market trended upwards after today's morning session. A countertrend fruit showed up right at NEO which I took but turned out to be a rent. Market lost momentum and went sideways instead.

The picture that I see (your chart) does not give me any impression of a market or price action that is ready to reverse.! Do you know what I mean?

Re: Ralf's Journal
I see what you mean Immy. I was just giving it a try to get an entry to NEO session; I should not push it at all cost. Thanks for your comment!

Re: Ralf's Journal
During today's morning session I took a long fruit right after LO which turned out to be a rent. I felt a bit uncomfortable due to the fact that the fruit was very large but took it anyway as we should not fear large entries. I even then SAR'd the fruit but got kicked out by green line closing. So the session resulted in two big rents, but for some reason I don't get as nervous as in the past knowing that I gave it a chance and that even these big rents will be covered in the future.

Re: Ralf's Journal
Short breakout at NEO looking for catching w5 which turned out to be w3 with trailing candles after strong move pushed today's overall results to positive. Thank you universe!

Re: Ralf's Journal
At today's morning session I gave a short fruit with small risk right before LO a try and missed to SAR when price went up. I was too focused on shorts and when I realized that SAR would be a good idea, it was too late.
Sometimes it's hard for me to stay focused/ keep up concentration when you have to wait 5 minutes for next bar. This is definitely a plus when trading on M1.

Re: Ralf's Journal
Today's morning session started with a nice long breakout but price came back and long got stopped out (I moved SL to trigger candle as AIMS box was quite big). So short came into play but got stopped out at BE after an initial down-move. Later on a nice AA developed and granted me with some pips by trailing candles.

Re: Ralf's Journal
Afternoon session offered a short fruit at NEO on M5 but market spiked up before moving down again resulting in a rent. Skype-colleagues managed this up and down move very well on M1 and squeezed all possible pips out of the market, well done (wd)
