Hey Grant
Welcome back from your holidays! hope you had a BLAST!
Thanks for posting your charts. I managed to no take the earlier trades for some unknown reasons. I was not happy though. Because missing trades means something's wrong but ....
Yep too that last rent like you too but i paid one more by going short... which was not a good choice... though took the long and thought "I knew" it was gonna hit 125.00 I exited +25 (I'm now sure it was early exit because of the rents)
As we speak the original target is hit. It should have been +50 + 30 = 80 pips covering all rents and massively positive. However, with the second trade I took profits are realy nice now.
me got back in on the retrace and targeted 125.00. (when the trend is confirmed go aggressive, go mental, go crazy = my motto)
I can now safely say that I recommend
+10 SL and +25 Target Point for EJ M1.

The thing that makes me money in trading is when I "Objectively Follow my Trading Plan".
I understand that I can't catch all the moves or all the signals but my objective is to catch THE VALID SIGNALS & ONLY the Valid Signals.
however in order to be aggressive you have to be sat at the damn pc..... (rofl)
Grant
(rofl) Agreed! Without being "here" infron of the damn pc, its going to be a tad difficult unless you have hired Megan Fox to trade for you while you are "out".

How NOT to trade! When you know that the probability of success for a setup has diminished then don't try it. Meaning if the odds of your Edge are at its lowest (e.g. m5 has a strong move up and losing momentum to upside. don't try to get in on M1 for another long) it is for this reason I only tried for a scalp. But I'd say, lets stay away from such trades all together.

ofcourse the above BS was wrong. but I don't give a shit. I like to trade the Setup. so I took a short after paying a -10 long from 17.05 candle. adn went short 124.90 (the damn thing slipped 4 pips) and added from below M5 level.
