Re: Vicky's Journals
This is NOT a good setu p1. Wave 3 is not strong enough, Wave 4 is too wide (range from top to bottom) and too long (from left to right)... just not good setup 1. nope.

Re: Vicky's Journals
Well there we have it, the end of the second batch.
DS score was 75% so happy with that.
Overall a losing batch so room for inprovement on this.
Still searching for the missing link to help it all fall into place. Lets hope batch 3 has some answers.

Batch 3
Trade 01
Gbp/Nzd D1 Waltz
2 Pause candles spotted, entry. This ran well from the start. After discussions with Immy it was decided to trail this one and see where it went.
I got knocked out as it just went above the latest box I was trailing
End result was 2.6R
R result to date for this batch: +2.67R
DS score for batch: 1/1
Overall total R score: (all batches) +12.7R
My Feelings and Analysis at the time of entry and afterwards: - After being in this for a while, it was exciting to think that this could continue to run. Also good to trail the boxes and see how this works.
What could I have done different? Happy with this trade.
