Forex trading live calls and set ups

[redart]

Not kept up with the thread as I've been busy,

been choppy for me so far this week and yesterday i got a good ass kicking, today has been much better but still down for the week.

Hows everybody elses pip count so far this week??

I've also only been posting the odd live trade recently myself. Busy working on some new stuff at the mo.

I had 3 losing days in a row (Fri, mon and tue) losing on average about 16 pips per day.
Then yesterday I bagged 74 pips
Today im up 18 pips so far, but, as happened the other day, I got up too late and missed another setup which would have been good for 20 pips or so.

Not a good week for me either. As of right now my chin is just above water...but if I open my mouth I'll drown.

However, today is THE day... I can see it from here!

2 small TF trades; 2 winners for 40 pips. Approx. 300 pips on the smalls for this week, eleven trades/eleven winners...bizarre...

No more small tf trades/scalps for me, finding myself again looking in here and not enjoying the emotion of taking pips whilst others are in the opposite trade direction which is why I signed out of this thread a week or so back, also affecting my swing trading, puked on a few swings way too early but re-entered *safely* ..

Gonna (finally) give up on this short term stuff..Might add the odd comment a couple of times a week if that's OK..

why would you want to give up on 300 pips a week,your swings cant make that much

Why give up? Unless it's stressful.
300 pips a week is a nice result.

PS You see - similar views here.

I understand not posting and it affecting trading...but why give up trading the small TF's if it's profitable. Seems to me like it's more of a nice bonus to your regular trading. Who ever gives up bonuses!

ADDED: maybe a 2nd account just for the scalps?

 

[wackypete2]

Stopped out - 10 whilst away.

Daft trade, broke my rules, and suffered accordingly, so time to stop trading for today.
