    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    FX pair EUR vs CAD (EURCAD), it's now a long setup again and I think it could breakout above 1.61. Closing price was 1.5593, I'd go long and place the stop loss @ 1.5440.

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    The countertrend shortsetup in the S&P 500 would not have worked out, SL target was reached yesterday. Natural Gas now trades @ 2.781, I'd now move the Stop loss up to 2.50 US$ to ensure a profit if 3.00 US$ won't be reached. (page 12) US$/CAD short setup would have worked out very well too...

    ... and now back to a classical trendfollowing setup - Gold might see another 2020 high within the next few weeks. It now trades at 1,933 U$. I'd go long with the Stop loss place at 1,880 US$, profittarget would be 2,150 US$ .

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    This may be a "double top" in the S&P 500 (SPX), with a new all time high recorded @ 3,400 points. I'm now straying away from my regular approach, trend following, and would bet on a decline in the S&P 500. Knowing however that trying to nail trendreversals is very tricky and challenging, I'd...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    Oh, I am tracking the results ! I always give the SL level and profit target, take the time and read the thread. I'd now close the EUR CAD short position with a slight loss, it now trades @ 1.5722 . Original SL was 1.5770. Again, the actual dollar amounts of course depend on the account size...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    I wrote already that I'm broke as of now, but might see financial improvement in the future. If so, I'd exchange with able traders in this thread. I don't have any money right now and can only post setups, not trade them. I also wrote how much I'd risk per trade, and that trendfollowing would be...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    Pair EUR vs NZD ("Kiwi") now is 100 pips away from my profittarget of 1.8250 - it'd then be a 3R winner, I posted this long setup on page 11 in this thread on July 24th, see "green spec" on the chart . I would now move up the SL to 1.7900 so a profit would be ensured if the pair turns south.

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    On August 3rd, I posted a long setup for Natural Gas when it traded @ 1.964, it now trades at 2.481 US$. I'd now move the SL to 2.10 US$, to ensure a slight plus could be realized in this long setup, price target remains 3.00 US$

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    I'd now close the silver longtrade at a slight loss - above the original SL, it may be too late to trade it on the shortside, either. The long setup was posted when silver traded @ 25.40, it now trades @ 25.28 so the loss would be minimal. You have the watch the underlyings you may want to trade...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    In Natural Gas, I'd move the stop loss to the entry level (breakeven). EUR vs CAD (EURCAD) looks like a 2:1 short setup to me, I'd now go short (it trades @ 1.5698), place the SL @ 1.5770, profittarget would be 1.5480 .

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    Slightly off-topic, this is from a speech the legendary fund manager Stanley Druckenmiller gave in 2015 at the Lost Tree club in Florida . He was able to generate an almost surreal annualized return of 30.4% without a single losing year for, hold on to your seat, 30 years ! Excerpt "I was not...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    Today I venture into the world of individual stocks and present a company I would NOT buy any shares of ... although it looks on paper very seducing as the current dividend yield is very high, slightly above 15% ! The market cap is as of now above 15 billion US$, but it now trades below its 2008...

    ... SL would have gotten hit :( on the DAX long setup I just posted .

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    I think now the DAX / GER30 is in a clear uptrend on timeframe "daily". I'd go long now, the DAX now trades @ 12,656 with the SL placed 110 points below entry, Proftittarget would be 13,000 points.

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    ... won't stop to post setups as I continue to find some opportunities I believe may have a great risk - reward ratio. US Dollar weakness may continue and I think the FX pair USD vs JPY (USDJPY) good break below 100.00 . It currently trades @ around 105.56 - I'd place the stop loss @ 107.50 ...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    May be late to the party, but to me it looks as if Silver may see 42 US$ ! I'd go long here with the SL placed 2.40 US$ below the entry price, it now trades @ 25.40 . Profittarget as stated above, 42 U$, SL 23.00 US$ . Will now stop to post setups, but hope some of you will have gotten...

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    I think we have a short setup in the DAX/GER30 (GER30 on tradingview). It now trades @ 12,577 points. I'd go short with the SL placed 150 points above my entry, profittarget would be 12,050 points.

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    ... Natural Gas, just "wow", it was a large move in my favour of course but still way to go before the profit target is reached. Trade management ? I'd move the stop loss to 1.86 .

    ... but is it doable in reality ?

    The short setup in Natural Gas worked out well in the beginning - but the profit target was not reached, the short position would have been closed with a small win. Natural Gas is now, according to my analysis in a clear uptrend ! It's "NATURALGAS" on tradingview. Here's the chart, timeframe...
