yeah always better a BE then a SL trade, just a bit annoying when it happens after a good 1 to 1 was already reached. shrug, just part of this trade i suppose.

 

the other broker has crazy spreads, but no commissions, still i wouldn't trade there live. the AU on ic broker can be wide too some times. not nearly as bad as with the Forex.com account. still good practice trying to succeed despite that spread on the fastish trades.

 

anyway, i set this up and it just got opened, what do you think? bit CT for a 4th wave?

it is EJ.

@ Theo,

what do you think of having a thumbs up function added to the forum? it's fun being able to thumbs up or down a post 🙂

Omar, it's very nice that you share your trades here.

As I see the Gold trade it seems you move your SL above the previous purple swing... Otherwise the SL would have been hit. Do you use WavFX trade manager for gold? I experienced a trade with 10 tomes bigger lot that I expected and every time I trade gold I am not sure what the manager will do. Tried to adjust it but still not ok.

no i use the mt4 buy and sell button you see on my charts on the left top for gold. you can pull a SL and TP from the trade line by clicking it and dragging, then the SL will appear and you can place it, same with the TP. so when i see something just triggering i do it that way. only problem is you have to guess lot size that you need. yeah the sl was the 3rd purple peak. here is a pic from a zoomed out

view.

which MM option were you using?

*I have just tested all MM options using the TM on Gold and it opens the lot sizes correctly. Send me a screenshot via email with the TM remote running also and we will start the troubleshoot from there.

EJ clipped my BE and is now heading to target, what a day, lol. 3 BE trades today. had i settled for 1 to 1 2 of them would have been wins, seems some days the market wants me to be happy with 1 to 1 rr, lol.

still good RR there Sjoerd, nice.

had another AU set up so did a quick video on it.

** Register Here for Free Membership to see this image/link **

 

finding the videos really helpful for analyzing the losers, or the BE trades. the EJ i closed for a small loss would have been ok so far had i left it alone. it would be back in profit lol. would, could and should lmao.
