Daily Forex Trading

Hello, I am using this post as a journal of sorts to log my trading on the forex market. I generally trade GU, UCad, EJ, EU, and occasionally UJ. I use daily pivots and consolidation zones to base my trades around the London open. During the US session I generally look for reversals around important price areas. Hopefully you will see some posts in the near future.

as a disclaimer. I don't want any trouble. :lol: everything I post is for education and I am in no way liable for any losses you incur. TRADE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

That is because you was sitting at demand. 11 is good on EU scalp imo.

I agree it was in a fickle spot! However, during the London open it did end up testing my original TP zone (the red line in the picture) which was a recent was a turning point in the past. I didn't want to risk all my hard earned dollars though :wink: I'm toying with the idea of changing my exit method based on the price action during my trades... Possibly take most out at known resistance levels and let the rest run with a 5-10 pip trailer. For example during that EU trade I could have taken %75 out at +11 and let a bonus run to where ever it wanted to go.... That way I ensure my %%s for the day and I might get some baby/big bonus $$.

Speaking of EU, it has broken the big resistance at 1.18000, and it seems to be heading for another one at 1.17700. If price gets there I will long.
