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.

In my plan that signal does not qualify as a good signal. Not because of the look of it ( I like the look of it)  but as it is waay to late. 
Could be taken if the first ones were taken and i was in profit already.

Great Move, Clear Trend but...

Unread post by immy »

We have see a  beautiful 3 day move on the EUR/USD that started last week.

It was pretty damn obvious it was going down and down and down.

but sometimes, we just don't get a good entry spot.

As Frustrating as it may be, it is what it is. We only trade THE SETUP

Check that Daily setup, it was smashing. Well done Vicky. That is the way to do it. Believe you me, if you stick to these setups, you will consistently make money. Once the "money mill" starts grinding, you don't have to get a new mill. All you need is More Gain to Grind.... Just keep grinding...

immy wrote: 19 Jul 2022, 09:44 A Quick Review of the Signals this month so far. Let's see how much profit or loss was possible 


GBP/USD: 
10R' (1st of July and 11th of July Signals) 
EUR/USD 
7R (5th and 11th)
USD/JPY 
-1R (13th)
US30: 
5R (5 July)
NAS
0R (5th and 14th)
DAX
3R (14th and 5th)

Total Valid Signals: 10 (Patience is KEY here)
Total R's for the month: 10+7+(-1)+5+0+3 = 24% Growth

The BANANA Method is a money-making machine. 


 
 

 
GU 10R
EU 11R
UJ 7R
DAX 9R

Total Trading Days 12
Total Winners 13
Total Losers 3 
Total Signals 16 
Total Profit 37R - That was possible. I probably got around 15R of that.

For those who might think it might include "signals when they are not trading". I always share these details based on the "Have you checked charts" forms I print for the month. I like to fill them with a pen, that gives me a different feel. At the end of the month, I collect that information, in the form of a review and update it onto this sheet. These are the signals I have considered, filtered, taken or missed. 
My Times are, as you know, 7am UK until 6pm uk (sometimes, upto 8pm) but most of my trades (70%) are taken within the first 6-8 hrs.
