I am wondering where winter has gone.
February is the coldest month where I live. It never gets too cold here but we should get -10C/14F at least for a couple days in February.
Sun is shining now and it's +10C/50F...The days of iceskating are long gone but maybe in a couple of years I can grow palmtrees here and have pineapple and mango's growing in the garden.

Did a couple of really nice trades this morning.
This is one of them;
Price peeked above the Asian session high at London open, came down and left a FVG.
I was waiting for the FVG to get filled and shorted it to take +/- 8R.
It's nice if stuff works exactly as you planned it.

Quite tight stops which seem to be working for you. You make it look easy Yirbu :)
What session were you in for these trades?

Hi Yirbo,
You probably know this already but just in case you don't, if one of your fav setups is the inside bar you could have a dashboard running to look for inside bars on all the currency pairs to give you more opportunity's . The left hand column in the pic is the inside bar check in Tro's dashboard indicator.

Thx. I knew that indeed.
I do use an alert from TV. As soon as an inside bar closes it pops up on my phone :D

Usually I am at my PC anyway.
When I am not, I don't trade too often.
Don't like to trade using my phone because I miss a lot of info.
