Ended at +23 today ... got one +19 and a couple of +1s and missed a few ... Nik's candles helps to identify good S&D levels and if I just stick to those then I know the market will most likely stall there and give a few ticks ... now to just be ...

Ended at +3 ... five +1s, a +11 and one loss where my entry was just a tad too low, or else also a +1 ... I am trying to identify the good S&D levels and then I MUST take all trades with a good setup that reach those levels ... working on the ...

Awesome !!!

Todays chart just show S&D levels drawn in as I watched and counted ... 5 loss trades and 18 BE or better trades ... building confidence so my consistency can pick up ...

Yep, the market respect decent S&D levels 80% of the time ... period. Today I am just observing and building confidence ... busy drawing the S&D levels as they happen and just seeing how they bounce time and again ... never 100% but for sure 80% of ...

Today turned into something different than usual ... I know consistency is important but when Nik mentioned it again it struck a chord ... I looked back and decided to turn today into an experiment as I was stopped out two times and missed a +25 ...

Today I am getting a lesson in consistency ... another hit off a short from 6325 ... I looked at the setup Mr D took but left it on because of the nooks and crannies that looked just like my previous hit ... at my entry it would have been a +25 ... ...

Second hit off a short from 8250 ... underestimated the demand again

Plan the Trade

Wow ... just missed the 8850 long ... it touched my order but did not engage ...

I took a hit ... a short off 6600 from the nice thrust bar ... just missed my BE target with a tick then took my SL out ... close !

Same here ...

Ended at -4 ... my time is up so I have to run ... I had more than enough opportunities to grab a few pips in the session even with an odd loss or two thrown in, must just focus on the current trend and get my entries right ... GC was right when he ...

At -4 currently ... 2 losses and 1 win ... strange though .. all my losses the last few trading days is -14 although my SL is 13 ... and all my wins are 24 although my TP is at +25 ... consistently ... is on sim though .. might be a difference ...

Plan the Trade

I still use a 13 SL but give it a tick or two breathing space ... that cost me the first two entries that went for +25 ... when i moved it in for a next pullback entry it was stopped out by a tick ... I just love trading

Plan the Trade

When I moved my SL a little closer with a next pullback it was taken out by a tick before reversing ... amazing ... the finesse of the entry

Plan the Trade

350 ...

I should not have tried to take it as well ... too many of those just whoosh though my SL ... but I like the way it stalled and then slowly go down. edit: On second thought I took it because 1900 was breached and a HH formed ... was a deep pullback ...

Had the same order in and it just missed again :-D

My entry just missed ...
