    Slow assed day or what today, ZERO trades, fancied a long that went 15pts I think, but that was it really :(

    I left the BB 20/1.7 up on US30 and it worked great today.

    Arsed, I can't be!!

    Nice move down, sadly just watching as busy :(

    Simply put, wait for 20sma and 10 to line up, ie it's going some place where ?? then jump on and scalp in this case ( down ) near the 10SMA High.

    Choppy markets trade the BB range, maybe, need to do the maths on this again.

    Flat Range test of the BB 20 1.7 today, Flat market times only.

    Thinking, I should risk more pts per trade I do better with a bigger SL, less freak stop outs so SL 12, 10 past I'll consider a loss, other side I'll consider a profit.

    8:30 today, go flat, short +20, Long +15, short +20, short Break out -12.
    Trend mode!!

    9:45 back to range, L +12, Short +10 L +8 S +10, L+7 S+7, break out -12.

    Got to Think, what's happening, if chop, trust this.

    Method looking ideal, but damn the dax iscslow and useless most of the damn time.

    Range trades and 10 and 20 agreeing continuation are the ways to go and focus on.

    Try to avoid the wibble where its just pretty much random.

    Dax still dead, watching gbpusd thats getting all the attention, speculation on maybe pulling out of the EU i guess, which I dont know enough about so no vote for me, but i feel sure what ever the masses vote for, with most people being morons who dont understand the real issues, it will be the wrong 1 as always :(

    Holy Grails are made usually by error, you trying to do one thing and you come to a brick wall of something else simple won't let you profit, then you see hey that is showing me something, or you make an indicator that perhaps limited folks have discovered.

    You trying too hard to do what I don't know, but I been down this road long ago. If you notice I have systems and I simple don't change parameters, and why you might ask? My rules are for ever change, I must back test and have 3,000 sample size, so it has to be really gnawing at me to want to make some change. What you have between your ears has to learn to read what you see and you not trying to do this. Trading is about making comparisons. Ever hear about "space"? It is how far price is either away or near something else, that is what comprises of support/resistance.

    What often happens is newspapers want the reader to vote in certain way, and if they want it to sound horrible to confuse voters they will. Like in America, newspapers are mostly democratic, any little thing on Trump they blow up and anything on Clinton is never reported, if Trump had been involved into having emails that he shouldn't have, newspapers would have road him out of town, unbelievable the FBI has not arrested her yet.

    I love trading the Bund. Slow and boring.

    Being that I live right across the border of Mexico, and I practice shooting my 45 cal rifle with scope daily, if I get shot upon.....I will protect myself, dogs can have what is left. At least in my area, not many come across to work, we have much more drugs running across.

    Those who are against Trump are in some ways lining their pockets with government or corporate monies and they afraid that would end with Trump.

    Look at other side, Hilary violates laws, don't care who gets killed overseas and she be as close to a dictator the USA would every have. She is main reason I have bought property outside USA.
