No Fred, I did take this trade on the 60 min chart and the idea was to take profit at the RH. The trade just didn't work out.

I appreciate your disciplined approach and I have been following this journal for a while. I am having a hard time last two weeks. I think this kind of sloppy range market is not really useful to trade. You might consider keeping to your strategies as this condition might change and give you the profit the strategy has to offer over a longer term time frame.
