Closed all with a basket of $400.
Thank you Bob. Not because of the financial gain, but for your utmost generosity to share your wisdom, and still remain so humble.

Regards,
Bernard

Here is my trade this morning on the EURNZD using a variation of 10.5. First chart is the 4H showing the setup, second chart is the 1H showing how I traded it

I'm still experimenting with what works best for me but I want to keep the essence of the original 104 system which was about minimizing risk whilst multiplying profits. In this example I used a multiple pendings at 20pips once the trade was in, but would have closed all positions if price reversed, which meant I sat in front of the screen watching until ADR was reached, I'll try to automate this in future. Just one profitable trade nothing to get too excited about just yet. I think if I can learn more patience and wait for the optimum set up, then this system should prove profitable, that seems to be an average of 1 setup per pair per week. Thanks to Gertje for his advice on stop loss and position size.

I got that eur/nzd for 3 levels and totaled 128 pips. That and the gbp/nzd were both nice trades. Here is a nzd/jpy set up back into the trend. It just bounced off of the 240 line which will make it 3 time in 3 weeks it has done that. I set pending buys at the WP and DP lines. I also set at DS1 and DSM for 4 entries.

I am already at 2.5% increase for the day and it looks like these JPY trades are ready to pop again. Sitting on 1% DD so if they go it could be a big day. The only jpy pair I am not trading is the aud/jpy that one looks sick.

GBPJPY

Post by Gertje »

To illustrate what I mean to say with multiple TP-moments every week for the same pipspan, attached an example of the GBPJPY the way I trade it at the moment.

Yesterday I made 150 pips, price retraced and I re-entered the exact same levels again. They just TP a few minutes ago for again 150 pips.

Price stayed within a 125 pip range this week, and I made 300 pips during that range.

GBPJPY 1 hour chart shows the triangle lines and this currency pair has a habit of respecting lines. So when I saw the bounce back from the upper triangle line I closed my daily open positions to take profit. On a retrace I will look to add via buy-limit pendings as well as buy-stops above the upper line if/when price breaks out...

Nothing price went up instead of down. Had a profit from pivot to mid which I didnt take so now have a little DD to deal with later. USD strong did not lead to very many trades. I got 62 pips on aud/usd, 16 on usd/chf, -9 on usd/jpy, +23 usd/cad, 34 on usd/cad but zippo and DD on gbp/usd.
