Trade 2 : UJ Lose $4.31 @$243.90

UJ @5.png
Main Set up. Zoom +M5

Insight : Crossing out trendline for maksimum pips. & Surprisingly price still obey the previous TFV which act like support and resistance.

Note:
  1. Exit too early on trade 1. Potential to gain extra $20
  2. Mistake trading correction on lower timeframe. Consider lucky cause able to cut lost although 'late.

Note: Waiting for the next set up to long. Refer set up B. Be careful it may break the correction and resume bear again as weekly chart indicate so.

Task to do : Set up RULES to trade

Problems:
  • Hesitate to take the trade when everything seems favorable. Decision making in chaos as when referring to multi time frame, contradict signal arise, and too slow to decide (cons). Reason. Do not have the rules to trade for scalping. Should just have some simple indication, then just do it!
  • Frequency of trade is too low. Will not achieve your goal. So far only take 1 trade per time. Must increase 1 more. Must learn to trust your judgement and set up. Since UJ and EJ are very much alike. Just do it!!
  • You are ahead of the crowd. You are patient enough to wait. (My pro and cons as well). Day trading is not easy, mentally stress compare to longer term trade.

Trade 3: EJ Gain $5.01 @$248.91

Insight:
  • This time able to gain some confident with my judgement. As mention in my problem above, just do it, simple indication. Able to go out before price correction. After all, scalp is about few pips profit. Look for another opportunity.

And i am back recording my journal. My latest set up. :)

2019-09-08_15-48-03 eu.png

For EU, Overall still at the downtrend. Last week price went up, but the last 2 days price drop. Expecting price go up to ranging price from 1.0294 - 1.10409. fighting zones is from 1.10199 - 1.10234.

Action to take :1) Will wait for the height next week if i am going to sell.
2) Will see if price able to break 1.0199 - 1.10234 if it continue to drop (continuation). Then only to sell if it break the fighting zone. We will see how this pair play out.

For AU..2019-09-08_20-17-52 AU.png

Price went up from from 0.66883 to 0.68620 last week. It's a good catch for those who long. Only during the last 4 hours price drop to 0.68446 before closing, and then increased by few pips.

Action to take: 1)I anticipate some correction before continuation on drop. The question is how deep the correction would be?

All i can say about EG is its a good opportunity to long. Should i just jump in or set a buy pending order? Lets see when the market open in a short few hours later.

GU start with a drop. Looking for an opportunity to short. Will the euro session push the price higher before it drop?

Pointers from EG, need to check the higher timeframe to see the overall trend.

The opportunity to long is only for 20 pips :)
