the 1st one


I picked this one on my own.

I think on the Daily it was just coming back under the 50 EMA and I could see the engulfing candle forming on the 4H.

I went for a 1:1 because I was going to bed and it all worked out :)

Could've gone 1:2 but that wasn't the plan.

Gotta add the spread!


I missed out by 2 pips (on the sell price)! If I had of included the spread difference it would have worked :(

Last Time BOJ Intervened


Last time was 3rd August and the USDJPY gained 330ish pips and within 5 days was back where they started.
This time round it gained 400ish pips, how long will it take to return to 76.0?

When the Swiss bank stepped in

2011 - 09 -06

I didn't know what was going on and later found the EURCHF was to be fixed at 1.2.

right place right time :)

Going to bed = 1:1 TP




If I can't watch the trade and move the SL then I must set a TP of 1:1!

trying 2%


I jumped in on Big Es entry for the Sell. There is definitely a bullish trend but within a channel.

I found the channel after I was in the trade and then looked for support of my trade. The spike was a breakout of the channel, I did find some Fibnode support which is where I put the Stop Loss and I pushed the risk to 2% to give it some breathing room.


The breathing room lasted most of the night but I guess fundamentals or something else pushed it over.

Find more support for the trade before I get in, not after.
