    Watching YM Crazy even at this time of night, Crazy Crazy.

    Was downtrend, made $50 just, pulled it, went upto 0.05%, then turned up then RAN 40pts in no time at all and is still trucking up +70pts from the turn up call, which is a lot of $$$$'s potential.

    DO NOT WANT TO BE ON THE WRONG SIDE MIND!!!!

    I can trade all night on YM I like this :) Trends be STRONG!!!

    Took +80 ages ago, scared, been demo trading since and regretting damn!!!

    Slowed the 20sma to 24sma makes sense with a 12sma kinda.

    Exited on the cross to downtrend, 10seconds before that massive run down, CLOSE!!

    Since then, short entries 24303 area, they'd be nearly 50pts here.

    Tightened Auto SL to 15 logic being that's SMA to 0.04% so sensible.

    Dropped Size to $3 aswell, $5 x 3 positions = SCAREY!!!

    Massive Trend monster, it just keeps building speed and momo +80 on that trade if only live :(

    Demo Long 24256, 71 here +15 and turning up strongly :(

    Wait for Strength and clear direction, risk 15, average in, hold for longer with YM and good shot at 40+ Good Risk to Reward been back testing :)

    Need to get my mentality of this is going wrong, CLICK CLICK out, rather than rabbit in head lights getting squished, solve that, and I'm RICH!!!

    SLEEP!!!!

    Minor change, remove 12 sma, add Envelope 12 0.01% interest is trading less extremes, if i wait for 0.08% then trends changed, 0.04% can still chop or trend so entry 0.01 then 0.04 then exit, not 0.08 cause all I trade is the 0.08 range.

    Human ( barely ) flawed brain + 30c heat = brain dead!

    Testing tweaks..............

    24sma cross, works great at times at other times it fails, basically BS deleted.

    The 12 0.04 and 0.01 especially are very nice, looks like just 2 Envelopes :)

    jump on direction, stay out of chop outside of the ranges and make $$$'s!! Back on it soon!!

    Been trying different things all night, my Envelopes work a lot of the time, it's back to jumping on Trend/Momo waiting patiently for Trend to form and stop over thinking it.

    Nothing else works, literally, that's it, and it's perfect but limited.

    YM live support, ie an area that has just not made a new low in 5mins+ will likely reverse back up at some stage.

    No way I could trade YM tonight, too many spikes, too many reversals :( stayed out, so all good!!

    Want 1 of those strong Momo rides, jump on ride for 50pts+, actually I want 4 or 5 of those per day :)

    i stand corrected, optomising the 12, currently 9 curve fits better, just called the turn down on YM nicely aswell.

    Markets gone crazy, I've gone to fast on my sma's trying to capture every move, just going to chop me to death, slowed it back to 13 increased the range to 0.06% with a ball at 0.10%,

    Going to have to adapt to market conditions every trading day pretty much.

    YM 200 pt moves, to scary for me.

    Especially when hot and hot thinking straight.

    +77 today 1 quick trade :) went 150pts straight after lol

    Looking like 2 setups...

    Envelopes 13sma 0.06 and 0.10 for strong ( YM and DAX currently ) and 0.04 and 0.08 for FX currently slower markets, just going to have to switch between the 2 charts on the tablet, not that I trade much from the tablet I guess these days.

    Get back to making $$$'s FOOL!!
