Just to paint a vivid picture of the trades, the market data I use comes from Interbankfx. It appears the EUR is testing the 1.3635 support and might break it. Im long at 1.3638 with a S/L at 1.3630. 1.3630 is next intraday support level. Im posting these trades public because it help with the physcology of trading the markets...also this is a new technique that im testing and im hoping it works.

Trade 1:
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3630
Target: Open
 
Intraday resistance was just tested at 1.3644, but did not break. The support at 1.3635 was also tested, but did not break. We appear to be in a range for now with 1.3644 resistance and 1.3635 support. My bias is for the upside, but time will surely tell....

Trade 1:
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3630
Target: Open
 
1.3635 support has been tested 4 and a 1/2 times during the last 4hrs. The support level IMO appears to be strong, but even if it breaks 1.3630 is just below. A slight breaching of the 1.3635 support level still won't constitute me going short...


Trade 1:
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3630
Target: Open
 
SL moved to 1 pip below new session support at 1.3633.... Any lettering after the word "Trade 1" indicates that the trade has been modified. Either a change in the target or SL..The lowest letter "A" indicates that the trade has been modified once "B" twice and so on..and so one...


Trade 1: A
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3633
Target: Open
 
Intraday resistance coming in at 1.3644/46, if my hypothesis of the momentum currently is correct, then these levels will be taken out..


Trade 1: A
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3633
Target: Open
 
Resistance at 1.3644 was tested and held. We are still in the intraday 1.3634/35-1.3644/46 range with bias toward the upside..

Trade 1: B
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3636
Target: Open
 
The pair appears to be letting go of some downside steam....The bullish momentum in the pair should be getting stronger as we are prepared to breach the 1.3644/46 levels. I believe the support of 1.3634/35 might get tested again, if not the pair should come very close to testing those levels. S/L moved to 1.3630 as a last stand....If the the pair touches these level I no longer need the trade....



Trade 1: D
Long: 1.3638
S/L: 1.3630
Target: Open

sorry, i didnt want to come across as rude, and i dont intend my comments to make you move your stops.

i still think you will be stopped out though. suitable stop for that long is below 20. i wouldnt take that long myself, but well, as stated above, dont pay attention to my comments

good luck

:) .. Your comment's didn't make me move my stop. I was in the process of typing, and when I finished I saw your post. I make my own decisions when it comes to trading. Sorry, but no influence here... :)
 
Points to note

When trading asia session ...trade asia pairs
When in a fast moving market ...stops will be hit before you can say ..."bugger", my stop got hit....or worse...it did'nt trigger...gapped through it.

I'm off to bed...what do I know ..have fun

One: 8min is up. I didn't get stoped out. That's always good.

Two: My old S/L from Trade 1 C of 1.3633 didn't get touch. This is interbankfx market data BTW.

Your playing Russian roulette. Not trading. Hope your not really serious, hope it’s not real money.

That’s not trading, that’s not a system, its financial suicide.

One: Do you know my trading technique, experience, or style? Stranger??

Two: Who are you? Do you have a trading journal? What is your track record? Im trying to establish mine..

Three: The word "trading" means different things to different people. And there are many different trading systems out there. Does it matter if I use a trading system or not? The point of trading is to make money....

Four: Look guy, Im open at 1.3638 with a S/L of 8 pips. Hardly financial suicide. What are your current open positions? Where is your journal?

Lastly: Who are you???? :)
 
Support at 1.3634/35 is being tested again for the 5th time in 5hrs. It just won't break. This is good confirmation for my long trade.....

I will bid you goodnight.

Just had a little run through your "Journal". To me I don't even consider you a trader according to what i've read. You've got S/L's at 51 pips. I've got S/L's at 8 pips, so who's more at risk of financial suicide? Our trading styles are different. And BTW I don't consider what you have over there as a "Journal", it's more of a "Lounge". And oh, did I mention I don't consider you a trader? Sorry.
