jendy36:Yeah you are right, thats because some guys here opened my eyes to the possibility of day trading successfully (shevychen/currentprice). So why not, I can combine day/swing trading. I just edited a few things I think they are doing since our trade patterns are a bit similar . No indicatorsDay trades allow for smaller pts risks compare to swing trades hence can take bigger lots when mastered, and don't take much time to play out from start to finish. I guess they are equally profitable, if they are not my swing wins can cover my day trading losses(small lots) till I decide on that |
Happening Now: My first day trade today, same pattern different markets US30 I have two supply levels marked out, the idea is if the first one doesn't hold I MAY take the second one, have pending orders in already so I can be busy with other things. I set alerts on the platform so I know if it been triggered to reevaluate and decide if I still want it. But if thing play out too fast and I m unable to make a decision before sl is hit, then , it is what it is ![]() Learning never ends, #mastering the art of day trading
|
FxDuke:You are right bro, conditions may change, BT I think it's got prospects. I like it's perfomanc so far though, would allow maybe a few tweaks here and there but overall the concept will be same |
Capitals:Different Markets, same pattern, pattern complete all in one. Enjoy the rest of your day Think I m getting better at this day trading thing , small lot sustained
|
Pattern complete, with TP Hit/profits taken Capitals: |
Capitals: Taking time to rise, I will stick to a 10pt loss if it retraces. No longer baby sitting this |
Capitals:Different Mkts Same Pattern, will take a 10pt loss if we retrace
|
Capitals:Reducing sl to 15, then BE if we go 50pts, TP at 60 and 100pts. entry 136.77 |
Capitals:Buying GBPJPY, 20 pts sl, probably my last day trade for the day. Small lot of course |
Capitals:I will gladly exit at 0.7067, another 32pts gone by then |
[quote author=Capitals post=47879893][/quote]took Another sell, 0.7051, sl 25pts with 100 and 200 target. May take BE if we drop 50. First two lost a combined 30pts, didn't jump out as I earlier suggested. |
[quote author=Capitals post=47867300]Actually adjusting my sl to 0.7044, but nt going through the rigor of updating the chart below Taking too long to drop, may exit day trade positions. Closely watching |
currentprice: ![]() It worked, hahahahaha. Thank you Bro ![]() |
currentprice:Thanks bro, let me test it ![]() Sometimes its hard to follow simple steps. I ll get it with time I guess Hope it works, last attempt for now[b][sup][/sup][/b] |
currentprice:How do you make this your footer appear at the bottom right? I like it but dnt know how to do it ![]() |
Capitals:Different Mkts, Same set up. Edit: Actually adjusting my sl to 0.7044, but nt going through the rigor of updating the chart below @Jorel; Enjoy your profits. Even if I doubt you took the trade with a lot size such as will rake in 6000% for 2000pts. From your past comments, you are too smart to risk all the funds in you account on a single trade. Let's allow other's post alerts so I can learn and perfect my day trading skills ![]()

jorel1:Sorry bro, the facts don't add up. I must have missed your explanation when you posted it and not patient enough to go search it out. But, if you are risking more than you have in your account on just one trade (100pts), then maybe your bank or broker is authorized to fund your accnt at will if the trade had gone 20pts against you so you can keep holding the position till it turns profitable and they would have done it is split seconds before the market moves another 14pts to completely whip you out. I don't understand anyway, and you don't have to make me understand, but I guess those learning from you don't understand as well and like you said, you have explained it before maybe they got it then. |
jorel1:That makes sense, you risked 100 pips when a paltry 34 pips would have whipped your entire account, or your broker is authorized to take money fro all your linked "segregated funds"' to hold the position while it temporarily goes against you. Perharps you were spot on and knew it will never go against you 34pips, why then allow for 100pips sl. Thank God your trade is going as planned. Enjoy the profits |
jorel1:We are both Mathematicians bro, if 2000pts gives you 6000% ROI, then 34pts should make 100%. I sincerely doubt, given your comments in the past and your experience in this business, that you will initiate a trade that will have u loss all if it goes 34pts against you (a little misleading for those that follow your call, I m sure you won't advise them to do that), more so when you average 60pts on sl as you mentioned sometime ago. Focus more on your alert? Sorry, I m not one of them who trades your alerts. You need to be a swing/long term trader to be gunning 1000+pts per trade, I m already good at that. No offence intended, just emm. . . |
jorel1:Nice one bro, you saying you ll be margin called if this single trade goes 34 pips against you from current levels/your entry, that s aggressive IMO but perfect if it suits you. Kindly correct if calculations are wrong. Hope I m not sparking up a controversy like oga currentprice. |
JLINE:Nice one bro, Second trade already stopped out BE. Didn't use an indicator for its target though. It still baffles me how you interpret them, that s genius. |
JLINE:I m learning from you guys now, The 2nd TP is history already, Price revisited my entry for BE on that one. |
My ideal day trading setup ![]() anything is possible Ger30 chart below
|
jorel1:I agree with you, second buy GBP trade today nearing TP, I didn't even attempt to reach 200pts, 100pts to 150pts is good enough. till I join the sell wagon.

Owliver:GBP presents opportunity for quick wins. Guess he has spotted one
|
jorel1:Lol @ help a newbie. Got some tp's off GBPCHF, hoping for extra dols on remaining lots. So I hope it goes up 400pts from current levels ![]() edited; GBPJPY not GBPCHF
|
Capitals:Letting go of the GBPCHF buy now (+120pts) because I don't understand what my broker means by "Further to this, we would like to inform you, that the weekend market opening (20th of June 2016), of GBP pairs might be delayed until spreads and market depth is at an adequate level." Better safe than sorry .As for USDCAD I just observe from one side. After 2 tp hit anyway if not I may have been sweating by now ![]()
|
Capitals:Buying the pound, catching the lows We dare the unadvisable ![]() May yet make a lower low, but as always. Its all planned out. (I been want the disclaimer for the edge like currentprice own, but I no sabi do am )Disclaimer : [s]Catching the lows is the quickest way to go broke unless you are certain what you are doing[/s]
|
unclenna: ![]() Nah, just my instincts telling me its due for a raise. I hope I catch the right pair though |
jorel1:Already looking for buy opportunities in the GBP, pair has been battered lately, it deserves a raise ![]() |
Great Job .Nigerians making Naija proud. |

, it is what it is
