Yes, same idea. I went back and looked, that was a DOWN bias week followed by a NO BIAS week. You maybe had an idea #1 entry the day before your (1) area, but no real idea #2 or #3. But after that, your next best entry was on the NO BIAS week from ...

85 pips this morning. I feel like price will probably break down some more, but I woke up and it's a nice gain to end the month, so I closed it. I think that's about 650 pips for the month. Start again tomorrow, new month. After retracing, visiting ...

And go back to 1040 and see if you can tell me what you see that is different from today.

I think that is a great choice. Learn from it, take a mental note, and be ready for it as you see it appear in the future. Sometimes learning from these moves is much easier when there is no trade attached to it.

So, let's put some simple visuals to the last post and how I traded it. Remember, I wanted to be cautious to not give back a bunch of what I have made this month and we are sitting in the face of a down move that paused, but never really pulled back ...

New Week. Bias: Down. I want to be a seller. Interesting start of week. We had the big move down, low at 1.1189. After price broke and held below the swing last week, it really just moved down with some pauses, not really a pullback like I want to ...

I want you to think about these concepts and trusting yourself because when price goes back into a horrible sideways mudhole one day, this is what you will be dealing with more often than not. We don't have to think about it much right now as price ...

You outsmarted yourself. What seems like perfectly logical analysis in the moment is silly from the outside. If you have Showtime, watch the episode of Billions from this past week, they captured this aspect of trading perfectly. The simple end of ...

So this is actually great... let's learn from it. When price closed yesterday at end of day, what were you thinking?

Gejordan Weekly Journal

Price out of the up move and into a down move for this type of trading. How you managed today depends on if you took a loss, BE, or gain. All three outcomes are fine and normal, but you have to identify the emotion associated with why you made your ...

I had just posted and was still at the computer and had not put my hard order in yet. Looked over and was shocked to see price was down at the pivot. It had already hit and started back up. I was 9 pips above pivot, lucky I was sitting here or I ...

Have to switch my focus this morning, so closing this out. Idea #2 from the pivot last night. Price shot down to the pivot, enter, go to sleep, patience, 80pips with the move and the bias. That's an idea #1, #2 and #3 for the week. 270 pips. 500 ...

Good morning. This is the same trade showed by Rearden in Post 1122 above. I was looking for 100pips as mentioned in my last post. I dragged the TP up while I slept in case it ran overnight. Woke up, it had been 100, but had pulled back a little, so ...

Here is an idea #1 in action. I wanted to be long this week as mentioned Sunday afternoon. I let price go after the bottom to see if it would break, it didn't, got long. Those of you who have followed me on here for a while should recognize the ...

Bias: UP... I want to be a buyer of EU. I think Rearden grabbed 81 pips last week while in charge, so that puts the month at 230pips.

Gejordan Weekly Journal

Too much, although what you say might be true. The point I was trying to make... Price did push and stay lower. Which means we have to now find the swing which will mark the change in direction. The simple50 was sitting at an "a" swing location at ...

Ok, Rearden... we've hit Friday and the chart is showing something interesting. This is the great part of having had two great trades for the week, so you don't have to mess around with Friday action. Hopefully you can see what I'm talking about.

Now you're trading. Not so hard when you just do the simple things.

Gejordan Weekly Journal

You followed the basic rules and had a great trade. Keep it that simple.

Gejordan Weekly Journal

I'm aggressive when I have a directional bias for the week and price switches to that bias. Keep things simple.
