GBP USD (I don't know where this topic has gone)

Unread post by immy »

A Signal ... 

Looks extended but still a valid signal. Not happy that the SEED is almost as big as the last candle. 

Not clearly a TTTPP its more like TRTRP ... hmmm might cancel it.  Only risking $500.

Don't Forget the Power of TZ1

Unread post by immy »

The Target zone one is the BEACON of the Banana or the Setup 1 ... it is THE number one filter that is inbuilt into my trading process. I don't draw it for every trade, because I can simply eye it. But for beginners, its best to always draw and make sure that your entry is at least 2R away from it.

I'm back to my standard template. I think I was bored. There is nothing wrong with my process. All good.

Exactly... but ... 

The thing is .... I want to sometimes go long at the end of a prolonged bear move... And i know how to do it. But with the 50ema, I can't . I've trained my brain to follow everything that I hvae on the chart. Nothing is there without a reason and a specific and relevant rule. So if 50ema is there, that means, I won't ignore it. 

But then I thought, although I'll miss some trades, the performance stats show that it does not affect profitability too much. So lets just continue with what I'm used to. 

cheers

An Entire Week of No Signals

Unread post by immy »

Sometimes, the market is dead, other times, its choppy and wild.

Some times it does not move nicely but there are signals and setups that often result in rents,

otherwise, it moves smoothly and gives nice profitable signals, yet there are times when it moves and still there are no signals.

As traders it is our job to stick to our trading plan. Unless you are a subjectively discretionary trader who trades their ideas and frame of mind, you can't just take trades here and there unless the setup appears.

That is because if you take every signal or trade without an organised and planned manner, chances are you will not be profitable for a long time.

It is our job to stick to our plan and one part of the plan is to trade only when you see your signal setup. We had one, the 2LPB on UJ, apart from that there was nothing. What a boring week.
