Batch 2

Trade 18

Aud/Jpy D1 Short

DS0
S1, Started slow, I have to give myself a DS0 as when I was checking my other charts, I dragged the same chart over and ATM moved my SL to my entry. I was not able to get it to move back, stopped out overnight. Don't worry Steve it was an operator error not your system!
End result was BE.

DS score to date 16/18

I wonder why your SL was at the wrong location. Inside a box with Sleeping gator?

Hi Immy,
I have just dragged the trade history on this new chart, the SL was under the box. I place my PO's as swing, with 3 pips added. So not sure if I have a setting wrong, is this what you are meaning?
Thanks
Vicky

Hi Immy.

I am not totally sure on this one, when I set it to swing, it initally put the swing lines (SL) in the centre of the green dot, you can see the other little red line, so I moved it down to the bottom of the box, but it seems to still be in the wrong place, unless the box changed again.

I shall watch this, the ones I have currently running seem ok.

Thank you
Vicky

About the AUD/JPY chart if ATM moved SL to BE, you can simply click on the order line , hold and drag it back up. if that does not work go to terminal double click on the order and modify it. the later might be a bit tricky but the drag and drop is really easy. pity it was such a great setup 1.... never mind NEXT

Batch 2 Review

This batch showed me disipline works, be patient, wait there will be another S1 coming. The growth and learning from batch 1 was amazing and I can't wait to see what batch 3 will bring.

Results.
7 BE
8 +2R
5 -1R
End result 11R for this batch. I was hoping to double my first batch at 6R. I am still very happy with the end result.

The other thing on review I notice is almost all of the ones I had taken apart from 4, and the last one, that printed a 3 after the start! Had a clear W3 happen then they were taken on the wave change with the view that a W4 was to start.
