I was away from the AIMS-community for quite a long time. Many family-care and business issues have had to be sorted out or fixed during the last years. Now as things are nearly back on track again, having some more minutes per day available, it urged me to jump in back here again.
When private and business workload had increased 3 years ago, I figured out that trading small timeframes (M1/M5 DAX and EU) had become too demanding for me and made me very uncomfortable. I decided to switch to a solution which requires not more than 15-30 minutes per day for proper trading. So I came, with time, to trading exclusively D1 with (finaly) 20 mixed instruments (FOREX main pairs except of SFR-Pairs, main index- and some commodities-futures). After the setups (mainly S1 towards TZ1, in addition pin bars/good Adam's Apples supported by S/R and trendlines) and routines had been established, it worked out rather effortless, checking the charts and making trades at NY-close (22:00 GMT, 23:00 CET) or in the morning for 15-30 minutes. One and a half years ago I added 4H TF to my toolbox and it turned out that it wasn't much more time effort but better profit due to more, but still reliable and stable signals. Later I added H1 TF as well but it turned out that it required too much attention/screen time, therefor I quitted H1 very quickly again.
I can't/won't keep an online journal here but 1.) I want to stay in touch with you guys a 2.) post regularly some trades or trade ideas.
To Immy, Grant and Steve (and the other AIMS-veterans):
I want to thank you for all your work and efforts helping traders to find their ways to robust, sustainable and profitable trading. There are no shortcuts but you helped me a lot avoiding pitfalls and detours.
So, here are some recent trades: Cheers everybody
