~Bodies show the way when they are compared to other bodies in the recent past.
Hey MO another question here if u get the time.
When you say that the more time it takes price to go back to the MZ (time compared to the momo) the less relevent it becomes (es/pip always said if its not in the next candle your trading s/r) and the whole x,y patteren. Then i start thinking about TRO saying there is no trend. A trend is just how a High TF momo looks like on a lower TF. So this brings me to that the market is doing whatever it wants (follow the money?). I think i just realized how huge this is. Now so the question.. erm..

I think i see it more like.. the further it gets away from the most recent momo the more i want to enter long on momo towards the MZ and see what happens. A higher TF could be in play and rdy to kick your butt

By "yes but no..." I was referring that won't let them clutter my mind.
... I took that opportunity by securing the num of pips I wanted, so it was a "free" trade.

But no... I was protecting my entry, risking some of the profit in return of more. I was happy with 30 pips, and that was my starting point... protecting them and let the sucker run until that area I closed.
It was hard to sit on my hands and not to take profit earlier. It is way easier to let a looser run praying it comes back than not to take profit when you see it. This is the trick.

Guys, I'm so excited... I've made my first longest trade LIVE ever (well, consciously of what was I doing). This is my short trade from today, a total of 127 pips, what meant +34% on my live account. This recovers my stupidities from last week + 10% profit for this year. Still long way to go to breakeven on my overall investment on forex.
Was about to bail at the beginning as I was +20 pips, news came in and put me at -23 or so. My SL was 1 pip on top of the daily, which was 8 more pips from my max DD.
Salute
Nice trade 34%, my best live trade is only 14%.
The big ones are good some times, but don't let them clutter your mind.
"Thanks...
But no..."
Not sure I understand that!
So you think 34% trades should be common place in your "trading plan"?
Only saying from seeing a friend of mine hit a "home run". He couldn't
get those base hits anymore because he always focused on the "home
runs". It can mess the mind up.
I Apologize if I offend you or something.
Nice trade management by the way.
FREE TRADES are nice.
That is why I use multiple orders.
Take small gains.
Let part run.
I think it helps on a mental level.
