    Still struggling with setting obviously!!! Trying to stay on the theme of 24sma based mind.

    24 0.18 was too far out 9 days out of 10 so.....

    Envelope 24 0.06 and 0.12 SL at 0.12
    BB 24sma 2.4

    More than that gets to confusing, got to try to keep tomorrow free and well place trades and take chances and get this shit show going.

    Well trading again, up a quick 80 bucks closed, 2 longs on DAX BE area.

    Tweaked, to 18sma based and 0.05 and 0.10 ranges fits better today, tweak every day I guess fun!!

    Small profit taken, tracking the BB range, rather than hold it back down again, a while back.

    Getting back into the old range game, need to settle in and go full time I guess!! :) or :( depending on how it goes!!

    Back in it, very little time, work, running a mate to a place, kids, work bla bla bla but still pulled in $180 today :)

    Yes, I'll give back that in 1 bad trade, didn't get any runners, no trends to jump on via range, just playing flat boring sideways range.

    Back in and making sensible trades is the key part!! :)

    Good money to be made on the dax today, after the effect entres visible so method fine, but slow and stealthy, without a jedi mindset never going to join and ride it :(

    Method change, due to learning and improving to reflect what's been learned!!

    BB 18 2.4 Stays, proven itself countless times, good little worker!!

    Envelope 9sma 0.03 and 0.06% SL at 0.07%

    Nice Combo

    BB defines chop range nicely
    Envelope 9sma 0.02 nice little mini range and direction.

    Much tighter SL control, more trades to keep my interest.

    Give this a blast tomorrow asap!! :)

    Simplifying, dumped the BB just 18sma and 9 ranges.

    Play the 9 ranges with 18 direction.

    BB got dumped, cause it just caught me in the churn a few times, out to BB cost me too much, down 400 bucks :(

    Direction changes will always cost me, caught 2 lol ie the Churn Expanse reference.

    Back to BE on the day, well very close, US30 long, risked 10 made 40 thats how to do it.

    No damn churn finally, i did spot churn earlier but trading tired and stupid should of took +130 rather than a -220, went 5pts more to make for prev loser :(

    Better devote some of my Sunday to testing, got to get on this, need to be 97% sure I'm not barking up the wrong tree and my range / direction method is valid, the churn kinda lowers confidence a bit.
