My personal favourite, Inverted Hammer & Hanging man. If you see one at the right spot on 1 hour, 4 hours or daily chart , just enter with very tight SL, 5-12 pips and ride your profit ( minimum +60 pips target, I usually like it for more )
|
GJ -13 pips Looks a lot like sell after the fact . Well hindsight is 20/20 Ps: Feel like opening a thread, where I could rant and document my trades, more like journal. Somewhere I could put all my crazy ideas together, the good and bad. Post live trades and all.

Mod just lifted my ban. Past week charts. Closed part of my EN buy for +105 pips
|
redsox11:Was banned 'coz of this post, how does that work? " Banned by the antispam bot in Business for this post. Ban expires on 12:08pm On Jul 21 " |
Asleykene:DO you mean you set up a live trading account, and put fund in it BUT you don't know how to trade? hope the answer the is NO. You're suppose to study , set up a demo account first. You have to crawl -> walk -> jump before you fly. I don't even know where to start... You should set up a demo account and take it from there. |
EURNZD update 70+... Missed the Add on
|
You'll should have a great trading week.
|
Set to Breakeven, both @ 120+ right now. I'll cut 1 soon and just leave the remaining for more pips. Also in GCAD trade.
|
My 2 cents. If I do business with you and you supply me an account number to transfer money into. OF COURSE, I'll hold you responsible if anything happens to my money, knowing that I sent the money to the account you gave me and the funds got into the account. I don't care of it's your partner or you that squander the money. You're fully responsible too. That being said, hope you guys come to peaceful agreement and have everything resolved. |
Will set to Breakeven as soon as I can.
|
Fast one... EURNZD, free trade now.
|
Couldn't resist... I'm shutting down my platform now. Enough for the week. Free trade.
|
Temptation... feeling like shorting EU again with tight SL (10 pips) , maybe I should just let it go. |
GJ and GCAD
|
Done for the week. Missed CJ and UJ, not really, my sell limit was 5-8 pips away before the drop. EU -10 pips , I dunno what I was thinking GJ -12pips plus spread, this I could relate. EJ + 45 but I’m going to hold it, set to breakeven already. GU +80 pips GCad + 25 pips … Sloppy entry , so I cut and won’t hold.
|
Hourly and 15mins view, GU
|
GU update... Going to trail it tight now, and start all over next week.
|
currentprice:I like you Blue arrow entry more. Overall great call, as both are well in profit now. |
Sneaked one in, doesn't look great, so SL at breakeven.
|
Achimaechi:Why not set up a demo and open your terminal and check it in real time. 1 pip is not always 1$... It depends on your lot size / the currency pair. Pipsbasketings:That's a lot of pips right there. You should leave some pips on the table for the rest of us |
wickyyolo: You know , this is too vague and generic for me to handle and other new traders, you have to come down to our level lol. I'm sure prettyboey have been around the block and knows what to look for when drawing all those trend lines and resistance. Few years ago, I used to have someone tell me, look for your entries here; WHERE THE FOX BRINGS BULLS/BEARS TOGETHER FOR THE SLAUGHTER -----> Support/Resistance zones, ------> Pivot points, -----> Fibonacci retracements, --------> Round numbers,....& so on Do you think new comers will understand the above ![]() You're right though, FX is not really about seeing a b c and going buy or sell right away. New comers will need a lot of screen time and if lucky, have a profitable mentor to walk them through it / spoon feed them. |
wickyyolo:Does that mean we have to wait for you to be rich before we can too. Just kidding. Pipsbasketings:That's why I love stacking 'em when I can, that way I can cut of few legs in profit and let the rest run. I'm going to find another low risk entry to join the party. I have few other trades I'm holding well in 100s +ve If I may, how do you handle your greed? If my entry is too low risk (very small lot size ), it just don't feels right. I like being on my toes, so I'm somewhat greedy, that's not necessarily a bad thing. |
GAUD 100+ humbling me with 2 losses during London session I believe.
|
wamiikechukwu:I think they are one of the best brokers out there. I use GlobalPrime and Pepperstone. You shouldn't take my word for it, you should research it and see it's good for you. |
Pipsbasketings:I was going to say good luck, but I realise you make your own luck, with preparation meeting opportunity. Quick question if you don't mind, how do you determine you TP? meshpips:I’ve missed you posting charts. You should if and when you are less busy. wickyyolo:How did you pull that off, that was a terrific buy, looks tricky, so I remove it from my market watch list. You have to teach me how you do that sometimes. currentprice:Did you enter again, I mean add new position? never really looked at Crude or Gold if at all. You have to know what you are doing to trade those right?? I'll be watching and learning from side line. |
My earlier GCAD entry... What you can do with a tight SL. GCAD 100+ pips, took me out before the extra drop.
|
EURCAD , thanks to the CAD announcement. I'll move my SL to protect some profit. I got stopped out on the other pair, moved SL to protect profit too soon. Closed some other trades too, will post chart later. Hourly and 15mins chart on EC that's some 300 pips just in one day drop. To think I have a USDCAD that I held on to for more than a week for just 300pips some weeks back, phew. Ps: That's why I like open Target, as market can fly off and you'll have the opportunity to bank more pips.

I think we can all help each other to be a better trader and better person. Ultimately, the market is the boss, we are just smaller players (retail traders). No need fighting, we are all here to help each other. If I see something I like from someone, I'd ask, if the person is down to help, why not. I understand some are not going to help or they simply don't have the time to teach others, and that's okay too. At the end of the day, there is always room for improvement. |
Update... GCAD to breakeven, I'm going to let market decide my faith. No entry till tomorrow.
|
Took some hit, I'm trying to create another leg in the market but got stopped out. I'm going to set my GC to Breakeven as soon as I can. As Cad announcement is around the corner.

Pipsbasketings:I understand you perfectly . Was actually complimenting you and not being cynical really. You've been very consistent and that's say a lot. I actually love the freedom that large SL gives you as you can not always be on the computer. Pipsbasketings:That's a lot, spread. For the life of me, I could never trade GNZD profitably. I envy you. prettyboey:I love your trendlines. Especially when I'm confused, I just go to 4hrs and draw a damn trendline to help with perspective. |
Pipsbasketings:"SL rarely gets it may be about 1/10" That's definitely far from anything close to regular. You're right about not re-entering and waiting for market to settle. |
