Methods? Well my main stuff is potential trend continuation after 3+ bar retracement off EOD on equities (ftse100 mostly). Here's the red paint culprit - I made a second addition today, but the fault was to chase the market after a gap open. Naughty, naughty.

For the daytrading play account stuff I mostly trade ftse (SB) and pair with dow after periods of extreme ftse weakness/strength. Can't put stops in so that's a lot of screen time watching the net position.

Overnight breakout trade plan. eurusd 1h chart shown.
Placing 2 orders since I don't have conviction either way at this point although the flagpole formation favors the upside. A look at the daily chart shows eurusd has been up on 7 of the last 8 days so there could be some correction.

Sell Stop @ 1.3090, stoploss 1.3112, target 1.3055
Buy Stop @ 1.3118, stoploss 1.3095, target 1.3150

1/2 position on both sides since this is an overnight trade.

Both orders will remain open until either target is hit, or I get stopped out on both, or I wake up in the AM and say @$#%@$ and exit/cancel everything.

Any comment or criticism is welcome. I'll respond in the morning!

Catch everyone tomorrow!

Topside break was stopped out -23 on 1/2 position
Bottom didn't trigger by.4 pip. Low was 1.30904. Got lucky since it would've been stopped out also. I have to rethink these trades a bit. Maybe be more selective.

Pending sell stop order cancelled.

Net: -23 on 1/2 position

i see what you mean about the gap,so no forex then
 
only a 41 pip range so far on eurusd. Seems like we either get tight ranges or serious whipsaw these days. Tough to trade.
