A penny for your thoughts

Hi all,
I would appreciate some constructive advice on my trading plan. I’m trying to keep it as simple as possible and know it really well. But I seemed to have lost the plot recently, and I’m starting to doubt it. Sometimes it works a treat and other times, it has me guessing. I'm thinking of including maybe 1 or 2 indicators for extra confirmation, could anyone recommend the best ones that would work in conjunction with my plan?
I'm really worried about analysis paralysis, so I will only try out the top 2 that are recommended and see how they go.
My target is 100 pips per week, and when I can achieve that on a consistent basis I will up my lots to make more profit.
All feedback is appreciated,
thanks,
Dawso

isn't this a bit too restricting?? I'm in no place to judge your methods of trading as im a rookie myself. i came on to t2w to look for advice, same as you. but i had a look at your trading plan above, and it seemed like you tried to make everything too... how to say... black and white?? i would definately agree with the chance of analysis paralysis, but i am also aware that you are under pressure to meet targets... but perhaps just go with your instincts once in a while?? hope it goes well for you

hi

before tinkering with your plan i'd be analysing the failed trades to see whether there is a common feature that can be identified. no point looking for a plaster to stick on your arm unless you know it's going to cover the cut!!

good trading

Dawso started this thread if you think 100 pips per week's not realistic, you may as wel give up now . . .
