Yen pairs are as sneaky as Joe Brandon.

Trade fast in off times of day.
See daily chart wick. (in direction of loss)

Walking by and looking at chart just after the first break was dumb luck.

You made it to 3.5 lines. It must be easy :shock:
What is you accuracy going for 3.5 lines?
65%?
If you average 20 trades per month you'll have 40.5 lines gained and approximately 10.5 lines lost for a net of 35 lines.
If a line is .33% then you'll have about 11.5%.

30 trades is about 17% a month
40 trades is about 23% a month
60 trades is about 34% a month

Between 20 to 40 trades is probably ideal.
Risking .25% to .5% is reasonable IMO.
Unless you are using some OPM strategy.

The Holy Grail has been found good job. Don't go trading it for snake oil.
Trade Your Way as Long as It Makes Money!

This week? LOL

1st "entry" went 1 line 4x on same trade.
2nd entry 4+ lines.
3rd entry an ACCIDENTAL 15 Lines.

That would NEVER happen without looking at the weekly/daily chart.
2nd daily target hit D1.

There is no holy grail.
All that mumbo jumbo has been hashed over a million times. My head hurts and It doesn't make lines.

TP hit @ 3.5 lines: First LIVE trade of the week.

This is where I WANT to enter.
2nd trade was perfect but I was NOT happy about that down bar, thought for a second it was gonna make another run lower. Tricky tricky.
The short would have finished a trading day in one fell swoop. (1,2 buckle my shoe setup but with ZL/Gap combo)
