A nice scalp to add to my space - Got out 4 pips from my target - 2 off the lower level and one add

Waiting for a trade that may not materialize - I decided to mark it up and post it.

Whether the trade materializes or not - its the way to understand what happens behind the scenes.

Oh a LOT of the sell traders will already have taken a profit and be out at a cool 3 to 1


edit - i should have said on the chart that IF that breakout starts reversing the long traders will panic and start closing their positions - with SELL orders driving price quickly down as now losing traders get their the stops get triggered

Never got that nice setup above. Still, not a bad week. Considering all that space was compressed on both accounts :)

[EDIT] I should say that I like a little over 100 pips of space - I just cant do MO's 30 pip thingy - an m5 candle closing against me could cause too much damage.

Now I shall reset my space and repeat

And worth every one of em (getting rid of the TV in 2007 helped)

I had one of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphany_%28feeling%29 for the first time in my life, unreal! - 24 Jan to be exact - I'm thinking of making it my official birthday.

Funny thing is - now I can start learning



Thanks for your input too mate - appreciated.

Some shite exiting this week - I really should know better - but my greed gene is fully developed :oops:

The upper target was ok - but not when I am not around to manage a trade - this last trade really cost me, especially as I was working so hard on it.

But still, 19% in three days. [312% this year using OPM to drive the adds]

Work really is the curse of the drinking classes - even tho I now only work part time

my old eyes trying to read a little iPhone just don't do the job! - esp. when I got used to three monitors at home.

Dchappy manages on a laptop! That's a leap too far :)

I'm down to a 10.1 inch tablet as my main Trading Headquarters. 8)

Using Trade Interceptor app with my FXCM account, since this is the only Android app I can find that does multi-chart layouts.

Hey Tyger

I am also on fxcm and ctrader

is it easy to drag a line (on the chart - entry tp or stop)?

that's my major bugbear with a phone

I like the visual chart dragging than effin about with numbers - so much so that I trade GU every day but if you were to ask me the exchange rate i wouldn't have a clue :oops: [well, maybe a bit] :)

Trade Interceptor is super simple for dragging and dropping SL & TP lines.

I use it on my smartphone as well, so yeah, I don't think you would have a problem if you prefer moving lines on charts.
