My forex chart for the day

Discussion in 'Forex' started by jonathan734, Jun 1, 2009.

  1. I am attaching a 5 min chart of the Eur/Usd. I wrote on them where my entry and exit for the trade was. I had already made a few other successful trades for the day and didn't want to lose anything so I exited, mainly because my 20/40 moving avgs crossed. I was hoping someone else could have told me a reason for exiting or staying in other than a gut feeling I had.

    I was shorting all morning for 15 pips and waiting for the price to come back to the top of the channel before shorting again. So I am not sure if I am doing this right but I thought I would post up and let some people critique. This is done on a forex .com practice account. Thanks for the time guys.

    Please excuse the the chart in paint. I am not very computer literate.

  2. Your charts suck big time! You need some technical indicators!

    No offense.......just being completely honest
     
  3. Candle action says congestion.

    I would bracket this group of candles.
     
  4. Fair enough, I usually have a momentum indicator at the bottom, but I heavily rely on support and resistance. So would you say that the winners I have gotten have been beginners luck?

    AReaGannTrader, what do you mean by bracket it?

    No offense.......just being honest.
