Actually to be fair, I see your trade in a shorter TF - overbought short position you came within a couple of pips of pulling it off for say 30+ pips on the way down, but as you said we are looking at different things. I trade in the 4hr and daily TF mostly

didn't pull the trigger?? Would've been nice.

My timing has been off this week. I've been getting the direction right but lousy entry.
I guess the stars are not aligned right or whatever. lol

Good to follow my own decisions - so far round 60 pips drop.

I use mainly 5m timeframe. Couple of pips was the difference! See my above post. I've just been a "little off"

I was a bit confused following the post from WT, so late entry at 13646

 

[wirraltraders]

bought eur/usd at 1.3615 with 20/sl/30pl (my timed live trades are at http://www.twitter.com/wirraltraders)

 

[wirraltraders]

+20 pips up may ride the top PL on the eur trade to see with there's a few more pips available - we'll see. Setting sl to b/e don't want any downside on this protecting my earlier trade

 

[wirraltraders]

staying with it for some more pips at +30 pips up

 

[wirraltraders]

setting sl to positive +15 at 13630 on eur/usd trade

 

[wirraltraders]

setting sl to positive +25 pips at 13640 on eur/usd trade

 

[wirraltraders]

setting sl to positive +30 pips at 13645 on eur/usd trade

 

[wirraltraders]

took 35 pips at .50

 

[wirraltraders]

Should have held out for more, but its been a long day and that gives me +95 pips on the last 2 eur/usd trades. Also I've already outstayed my welcome. Usually by now scose and B swan have turned up swearing at me and calling my trades rubbish etc etc! Might see you again sometime in the future, we''ll see. Off for a glass of red..
