Well I wont add salt to injury.... I suffer from a different kind a pain.

Went short at 133.45 on E/J last night. Started falling asleep at my desk after putting in a 8 hr day and 6 hrs on a transmission rebuild.
When I awoke, I placed a take profit at 133.15, thinking..ok...30 pips profit...nice...went to bed....

THIS MORNING.... saw what happened...and could only dream of what I would have done with that money had I stayed up and traded all night... lol

but did get 30 pips....

always more trades.....

Hello Doji, please, according to your way of drawing the boxes, would correct this trend change?
I would be drawing correctly?

Arkan,

your spot on with your analysis, then combine with one other time frame to get confluence. Start to look for things that have already happened that have told you the same thing.

Just using the 5 min, as direction & bias would be for scalping. Add a time frame to scalp and swing trade.

Nice work

There is nothing that you could have done, but that probably doesn't make you feel better.

My advise is to leave the EURO alone and trade every other pair.

Personally I like AUD/XXX right now.
