Think I'm going to pay the stupid tax on this one. Got in too quick.

Take the gains, take the losses. Chalk it up to a learning experience.

Hi Jim

here what i see. Watch the higher timeframes.

There are two forces acting upon us: Suffering pushes us forward from behind and pleasures entice us and pull us forward.

Yeah, I missed the perfect dragon line entry long setup. First losing trade I've had for awhile. That's what I get for being too smart. There is a semi-retired forex trader that lives near me; I'm sure he's gonna show me the same thing as you did. I'll be back at it tonight for the London and New York sessions. Patience is the key that I have found.

Thanks, my friend!!!!

10 inches of snow here overnight; gotta drive Mrs Loggerjim to work today.

Take care

Withnail-

Well played, good sir! I really need to work on my patience and let the trade run before moving my stop loss. I get too excited to lock in some gains at the cost of potentially larger gains like you have done here. I'll admit, I do love watching trades go in my direction.

Trading the London session while on US Pacific time really jacks up a person's sleep pattern. I think the best solution is to quit my day job and trade full time. Sleep all day, up all night pip harvesting.

:D

Sorry forgot to add that all this entry are simple 15min MoMo with Retrace and 5min Rat Entries with direction of 4hr chart and 1hr.

15min Chart Notice i took trade as price flipped bias change. This right on line and would consider higher risk entry. As The hour closed (at point of box marked "1.EXIT") i then have a 1hr MoMo to Down side. Foundation to new 4hr Swing to downside.
