DAX Closed, so US30 efficency test, US session only volume to low rest of the time. Looks Valid, just got to stick with the plan, trade 7's direction, without 2nd guessing it. Easy!!
Methods still looking ideal, but distracted got to flush all the evil bs from daughter out of my brain. Woman of all ages just nuts these days.
I was doing well 3 trades all profitable, up 70. But got a loser, didn't kill it as per rules - 130 here, i was long it turned down and well isn't stopping, I'm in hope and if i kill it it'll turn mode. First day trading in a few same old really
Closed out finally -90 stupid stupid trade. I need a longer term average to trade on the side of live, 30sma back in to trade with.
Modification, simpler.... I'm to rangey still, i play every pull back as range market conditions are too, its turned I'll lose so....... 6sma 6sma envelope 0.04% It breaks below 6,unless it's strong up then take an up thought sl, take a short near 6sma, sl outside the 6s range. Look for micro extensions along with the 6s direction. Move away from chop in short.
Quicker 5sma based 0.05% range slightly more seems to work. Cant get simpler or faster i really dont think. Scalp scalp.... -115 today playing range, getting change and SL hit, which also creates a this will fail so cutting profits too soon. If direction is up, get on long near sma to low envelope, direction is bust when envelope fails. Simples!
Playing chop just a bad bet, i seem to be unable to play or decide its trend and join, so forcing myself to play trend plays only, avoid slow markets though. Give me 2 decisions and guarantee 9/10 I will choose the wrong 1 lol
Home, testing, looks valid, F12 test I guess ( 1 bar at a time ), cheating as formed bars sadly!! 9:35 10th May. D S10051, SL -7 U L54, +50 momo span up I think, 10min break after big move!!! D S92, X 85 +7 or SL -4 U no trade D +5 D S85, +3 didn't go anywhere., U Weak L86 +6 Works the majority of the time, on the 10th, times where it goes +3 and times where it'll cost me -6 I can live with that, times when it goes +50 I can live with that Trusting a pull back, against the 5's trend, and reacting rather than waiting and seeing if it'll drop through, they rarely drop through, so got to take them, let the SL take care of the losers I guess. Give it a live shot tomorrow, Morale is LOW at this point and miss my kid!
Just missed a 10pt move, setup worked, but looked like a break down, hesitated. Dropping to 1/10th lot size, bang some out, study the live trade result. Running out of trading options here, so better make this work.
