Hope it's ok if I post some charts. I'm watching 19 pairs and traded 16 of them this week. I won't post 16 charts every week but would be glad of any feedback.
The AC I started trying to Buy but that clearly was not a decent setup, then the Sell setup happened while I was at work so missed that. I caught the next move but then tried to buy again and ended with a small loss.
The AJ I got right after only one entry attempt. I took profits on this and most other pairs because I had to go to work and couldn't watch them, and missed most later, good entries because I was at work. Bummer.
The AN was a wash for me, kept trying to buy in the wrong places.
The AU, like some others, I started with what I might call a continuation entry. I have seen a number of times that price will keep going in the direction it ended last week, if price has not broken my trailing stop line and the first H4 bar closes in the same direction. Then I saw a good entry and took profit but then gave it back and then some on Friday. Maybe I shouldn't try any new entries on Fridays trading H4. Not enough time to get going unless there's a big news event and I'm on the right side.

Next 4.
The EA I just got wrong. Kept trying to sell in a SH and consolidation. The EC I started with a continuation trade and after seeing the nice pinbar, got the good entry and made up the losses and then some. The EJ I caught after an early entry but then decided to sell it in a sideways chop. Have to learn to see that sooner or get a clearer entry signal like the previous pinbars. The EN I caught but exited too early; same reason - going to work.

4 more.
EU I didn't get right the first time and then today's entry was good but I closed it too soon. GA I guess I recognized as sideways and just left it alone after one attempt. GC I got 2 nice entries on. GJ I also got right like EJ but then wisely left it alone later.

Last 4.
GN closed trade after enough profit to cover the first losses. It looked like a decent place to enter after missing the better one while at work. Got a good entry on NU and I was around for the sell setup but was reluctant to take it. Got a good entry on UC after early entries but then got stuck selling in a consolidation. Got a good trade on UJ but not sure why I thought selling it again at the bottom was a good idea. Overall, I ended up in profit so that's good, and hope to increase as I get better. Eventually it would be nice to be certain about just a few pairs and still make the profit. Again, any feedback welcome.

Not bad day. No consistency just yet. Got to keep at it.

Does anybody know if FXAW went down or moved sites? The old location is 404 now...

There's been similarity in topping patterns recently, especially on GU - D1.
I've made a few £££ when combining these with barf.

Learning to scalp the W/M on the 15mins chart, I know I have to keep an eye on the bigger picture.
Bailed out on G/Chf.
