The diagonal line represents the collapse of the short term up
short at 2285 & 2275 1st target 2250

Pity on the 1st trade the tight sl was taken -10
entered another on 2275 went to 60> but closed it at 35 pips

entered a short on g/d after perfect collapse of the trend
went down to 50 pips I decided to put a tsl of 20 pips and that was taken
result only 26 pips flippin pity
only 61 pips for the day

[HENDRIK]

Trading the collapse of the trend
Got in late at 2305 30 pips lower than the signal closed for 23 pips as the downward trend showed signs of turning up again

[HENDRIK]

Luckily I saw this setup no candle signal though took a short at .8257 target at 8222 no movement it's Friday closed for 8 pips

I saw this too late but nevertheless jumped in at 2305 with a 40 pip profit in mind.
But this old timer forgot to put it down while the market moved very quickly.
So a forced closed for 28 pips

Now watching for a re-entry point should it break S1

[HENDRIK]

On H4 Eur/Chf I saw this signal and went short at 1.3381 with sl at b/e on Monday
Well it develope nicely to 68 pips but lost steam and closed at 30 pips

Gbp/Usd
was looking for a sustained break of 5145
went short at 5132 closed at b/e as the market has no umph

[HENDRIK]

Our submarine cable has been damaged and I experience delays
Took a short on M15 .. as the signal was outside the Bollinger I waited for the opening of the 3rd candle at 0.8294
sl to b/e and target at 0.8260 just above S1 .. currently pivot is giving support should that break I have more hope of reaching the target otherwise sl should be in danger
Decided to bring sl down by 4 pips should that be trigger pivot, has won
Pivot won +4

It pierced R2
went short at 110.50 with target 110.00 should that hold then pivot at 109.74 but first R1 at 110.12 must give no support
Too much volatility tight sl of 10 taken

today -6

[HENDRIK]

took a long beneath pivot and just above 23.6 of the fib and not a true bounce off the bollinger
at 2580 target 2660 = 100% of fib

ttok a long above S1 at 109.74 after a bounce off the projected low for the day and just above 23.6 of fib
target 110.40 just above R1

Both these trades taken at b/e sl

Problem in these volatility I moved the sl too quickly

[HENDRIK]

Mark brought our attention to this pair it pierced R2
took a short at 88.26 R1 is at 88.10
Pivot is at 87.56 and I expect it to give some support
It would seem that this pair is long term bearish therefore if it manage to break pivot, we might see a good run. If not, we will have rising bottoms on H1 and the short term trend can be bullish

[HENDRIK]

Long time no post
was siting on my eyes and sleeping with my eyes open thus missing the hammer but nevertheless decided to jump in

long at 2848 sl at b/e by now tp 2888
change tp to 2916 as market moved to 30 pips it looks like that R3 will be broken
Darn it I was making fire to combat the cold when the market dropped could manage 10 pips after it has been 40 pips I do not know what caused this volatility
I entered too late IO should have closed the trade but as it is fresh highs I was a bir jittery

This one is a breakout trade
short at 87.92 sl to b/e tp 87.40 no steam left closed for 52 pips

result only 62

[HENDRIK]

GBP/USD
Trend is long
The pound is back at this price since e/Jan 2010
H1 a hammer appeared which I missed, the price pierced the pivot of 1.5933 and retraced
took a long at 1.5968 sl 1.5930 tp at 1.6010 as I do not expext much of the market due to the lack of news
My entry point leaves much to be desired as it's just above 50% of the fib and does not represent a good r/r
Tp is at 127 of the fib
Looks like it's in a consolidation as it threatened my sl on 4 occasions ....this Monday seems to be a bad day

[HENDRIK]

GBP/USD
The double top on H4 retraced to 161% of the fib and a long looks good
took a long at 5756 and a 2nd one at 5777 set TP at 50% of the fib 5830
The market went to 61.8% and it reminded me of Mark's remark about not to be narrow minded about profit.
in my instance it was a set and forget so I lost out on 80 pips
Result 1st trade 74 pips
2nd trade 53
Total of 127 pips
