EurCad - Buy @ 1.51342
Trade taken at the cross of the MA15 on the 1H chart, CSS showing early separation of the pairs with Eur staying flat & Cad falling. Stoch 7 has started to turn up yet, but looking for a resumption of the current uptrend
Well this trade was clearly a bit premature, with Eur weakening slightly overnight and is currently -118 pips
I've set a buy stop this morning just above the 60lwma and looking to close out both trades at BE

This trade has not improved, I have set up the following pending recovery trades:

buy stop @ 1.50020
buy stop @ 1.50429
buy limit @ 1.49543

UsdChf - Sell @ 0.89529
Double red dummy lights, css showing a strong usd downtrend
Probably a little premature on this trade as well, currently - 30 pips
I have added a 2nd sell stop just below the daily pivot at 0.89720. Still reasonably comfortable that this trade will work out ok so not treating it as recovery yet. Regular TP etc still in place

2nd trade was filled at 0.89721 - still treating these as 2 individual trades...not ready for recovery on these trades yet.

I've been having terrible trouble with my Cowboy Go Markets live account this week, coupled with trying to get platforms updated & working correctly with the new build...I haven't had time to post my trades.

Combine all of the above with difficult market conditions this week, trading has been problematic to say the least.

Notwithstanding that I was pleased to increase my account 7% this week, as a combination of manual trading & BASA trading, however I do have 2 group of recovery trades open which I am trying to close out.

Monthly results to date on my live account are: +8.18% increase and hoping to hit my 10% goal for February

Unfortunately my posting here hit a wall due to the ongoing problems I was having with the connection to my live account. I was having constant problems for over 2 weeks which made trading harder than normal.

For the month of February I achieved an increase of 12.38% on my live account which was very pleasing given the difficult trading conditions and the platform issues I was having.

My platform issues are now resolved, cricket season is finished

so hopefully now I will be able to get back in here and post regularly again. Moving forward I will be trying to post more charts with the trades I have taken.

Thats great Shelley and good to see you back here. That 12.4% was that with BASA ? as my BASA has only been going south.

Hey Doc,
The 12.4% is a combination of BASA and manual trading based on NB 10.6 Edsel. I mentioned in the BASA thread yesterday that the current choppy markets are not really conducive to BASA, however it is hanging in there, although at a small loss YTD and I do continue to trade it on my live account.

Cheers
Shelley
