USDCAD PO not hit, cancelled until next week
EURUSD spluttering, closed for weekend for BE

Two winners - NZDUSD and USDJPY

777 pips last three weeks.


If calculated on the basis of 16 winners and 2 rents that
would be 88% win rate which may not be sustainable

it doesn't have to be. winnings pips far exceed losing pips so
even 50% would be profitable. by end of January I would still
hope for around 80% if I just stay disciplined

1,000 pips by December would be nice ( excluding long term usdjpy trade )
we can only take what the market makes available
but I should manage 900+ pips which will be a record
month and should bode well for the new year.

RESULTS:
25.10 gbpaud sell W+157
25.10 euraud sell W+94
26.10 eurgbp sell W+47
27.10 eurgbp sell L-30
31.10 gbpjpy buy +30
1.11 usdchf sell +105
2.11 audnzd sell +57
3.11 eurnzd sell BE
7.11 NZDUSD Buy W +37
8.11 NZDUSD Buy W +45
15.11 USDCHF Buy w +24
15.11 EURCAD Sell W +42
15.11 CHFJPY Buy W +17
16.11 AUDCAD sell W +72
16.11 AUDJPY Buy L -29
16.11 NZDCAD Sell W +42
16.11 USDJPY Buy W +46
18.11 EURUSD Sell BE
18.11 USDJPY Buy W +33
18.11 NZDUSD Sell W +18
21.11 GBPUSD L-50
21.11 AUDNZD W +20
21.11 USDJPY L -13

Well Friday evening I closed all open and pending orders
for two winners.

This morning I am reminded of the sense in doing that -
unless you are trading the Dailies or above - on the H1
none of Friday's hopefuls inspire any confidence this
morning

a new week

So far there are a few very nice trends but price is tending to
woefully overshoot pullback zone.

The only thing to really catch my eye is GU as price has retraced
to the zone twice already and now bollingers have narrowed nicely
hopefully for a nice breakout, hopefully to the downside

I've entered at break of AIMS

First TP is lower bollinger for +25

the second TP is a little more ambitious for prior daily support at +175

What I like:-

on the daily, price previously respected EMA 50 and has now retested
that level with upper body just touching 50 with it's wick just
touching Ultra Signal - picture perfect. rsi trend line has crossed 50
and more importantly has just crossed rsi 200 with price line steeply crossed
down under rsi30 level.

On H4 centre bollinger has crossed under EMA50

what I don't like:-

price on H1 is a bit sideways at the moment

Also placed PO on USDJPY above AIMS.

but a close below AIMS renders setup null and void

Just watching at the moment

Likewise with Copper

two rents and one winner yesterday. I was 100% right about GU
about to break out due to being so constricted, unfortunately
I was 100% wrong about the direction.

It happened again today so this time I placed a straddle with tight
stops and won +76

A second win today on AU for +16 pips, it was a sort
of Fruit although I didn't know it at the time

I'm calling it a day. yesterday was particularly bad
knocked my confidence a bit

results like this can be the undoing of many traders when they find
they are not sustainable.

For example if I do 60% next month I will feel very disappointed
as though I'm losing it. its not really like that. at the moment 80%
feels normal. I normally expect to win but the market might put paid to that
next month or even tomorrow

BTW 80% is referring to win rate, not account profit

meantime nice win on EURCAD for +16 pips
