Long Trade Result +300 Pips +2.5R

Once I am in a Trade I move my Stop to BE+ when Price reaches 50% of my Traget and then let Price do it's thing.
Personaly I move to BE+ because I couldn't handle Price nearly hitting my Target and then taking me out for a LOSS.
Everyone has to decide what Works for them when it comes to Trade Management.

I get the felling, apart from a select few, there aren't many of you getting any benefit from what I am Posting; judging by the amount of likes my Posts get.
The BEST way I have found to LEARN is by Posting my Trade Setups

I have very Deliberately set out to make my Trade Setup and Entry as Mechanical as Possible.
Things become Complicated when things don't go as PLANNED
This is where Experience and Time spent Staring at Charts comes into PLAY
I would say that Price Structure is the Foundation of the Method I am using
Price has a DEFINiTE RHYTHM to it

Hi, Steve
Thank you for the details. It really helps people to understand your thought process. By the way, I put some 'hind-sight' marking on your picture based on thought process of your style. Does this make sense to you?

Hi Justin,
I hope you are doing well.
On Friday I only got involved, with a BAD Trade, AFTER NFP.
The 1st Chart, below, was the first Chart I Posted on Friday
It shows Thursday's High and Low and breaks the Market into Segments I was "Hoping" to see Price Push into the Top or Bottom Segments helped by NFP, this didn't happen. It's always BEST to Trade AWAY from an Extreme High or Low, it Creates the Best Chance of a Winning Trade.
We can see Friday Spent most Time in the Middle this usually doesn't deliver the BEST Trading Opportunities
Price Structure is Definately the Bed-Rock of my Method I guess a lot of it I do Instinctively after 15 years.
By making this Method as Mechanical as possible, I have Eliminated a lot of Ambiguity in my Setup and Entry.
It's when things don't go as Planned, however, that I have to draw on a lot of Time spent studying Charts and a lot of that doesn't easily Translate into ABC.
This is why, I think, it is so Important for every Trader to find their own Path and take Ideas and Inspiration from others but don't try to copy everything because not everything Translate well.
I hope it helps
