Here ia a brief overall comment.
I recommend that you disregard all of chicken little's comments here and anywhere that you find them.
My orientation to trading and other people is to support a persons' complete learning processes if they wish me to engage with them. How I engage and what good learning processes may be are well thought out from my point of view.
Learning to make money can be defeated in many ways. I will not go into this truth of trading but learning is a very serious and important consideration.
There is also the factor that money is involved; other peoples money is always an important consideration for anyone associated with it in any way including even remotely.
Here is one thought for you. If you wish, at some point, take my example to heart on one matter. I do not trade on the 1 minute chart nor do I ever in my life recommend anything to anyone with respect to 1 minute data. This is apparently unknown to chicken little.

All the APA stuff is done as best as possible. The entry of a trade that turns out to be a wash is easy and normal. You go market and see what the result is ASAP. The reversal half is done in a way that makes the best of things; usually it is not effective. It could for some people be tied to the former entry and you must move from the 5 min to the one min as soon as the flag goes up. Most APA's are not done in trends but are usually done at times when market direction is an issue. You are in the market and the direction is the issue that subsquently arises
