Need somewhere to think out loud,

Yep, turned as expected short term atleast.

Banged head on the upper 20 BB then pulled back, where I should of entered ( phone call ) and up up and away.

Progressing, need to get with experience to a point, where I can trade, without stressing and tiring myself out and 2nd guessing myself.

Method's on FIRE, need to hold longer to!!

I love the steep moves in few bars to go other way as they often go the other way just as fast.

Fake Break up, get retail to jump on Long, then reverse quick to get to Max Loss before they realise there error.

Ofcourse sometimes it does break up, where the upper BB comes in, Crosses that and Momo is strong enough for Trend change and time to BAIL!!

TIRED to ride Mountain Bike and try to wake up, or not bother, trade more maybe then hit the gym!!
 
Just 1 trade, good enough, very tired, eyes sore, but looks like I have a operational plan, increase time spent, increase trades taken and maybe just maybe might hit 10K by end of the year!!

Try harder tomorrow, get early night!!!
 
I think I've solved, by tired, headache and not trading as can't focus issue.

Glasses, staring at a screen is killing me, it's all blurry I can't see the detail.

Getting old SUCKS!!
 
Jumped on DAX Long after the turn up, kinda late but $43 in mins :)

Hitting upper BB 20 at the moment, so bailed as UK100 reversed.

Should of gotten back in 12935 area.

Method is becoming clearer, jumping on the 9's direction using the Envelope Range 0.01/0.02%, then being aware of the 20BB for reversal areas.

Using say upper 20BB to join 20's downtrend seems kinda risky, if I do this I need some time in that area, when the 20BB range closes then playing either side looks pretty good.

Damn DAX 12946 and climbing +$130 here :(

Work in progress, going to take a few weeks to get really good at this method and looking like method is a keeper FINALLY!!
 
Another +$33 out way too soon again, well over a $100 here.

Nearly took 2nd position would of been $200+ here, that would make my week!!

"A plus is a plus" ...

What's the entry method, at the moment - BB-20/2.0 and SMA-9 with what?
More...

Post some charts when i get home, but...


9sma and 20sma direction trade with both then if upward, go near 9sma and down to the lower envelope 0.02% then ride the momentum.

When above range fails 20sma next reversal point, so average in near there

Then the BB 20sma 2.0 lower pretty strong so 3rd position near.

BB range fails or Sma's change direction mid trade then exit. May exit on 20sma failing if BB to far out.

With Trend just trading BB range pretty good to, ignore counter trend TP point maybe, never entry.

Most trades work off the bat, so i average in 50%, then 2 x 25% positions.

Look for early turns, dont trade if Exit loss point to huge, only working well on index's.

Jumping on existing momo is key.

By the numbers..........

Settings, BB 20sma 2.0 Yellow, 20sma Yellow Mid, 9sma White, Envelope 9sma 0.01% White dots, 0.02% Blue dots.

1. Consolidation zone, between the BB's Broke out upward.
2. Enter with the 9sma range. Both
3. 9sma Range broke, 20sma broke, but lower BB held just kinda.
4. Enter with 9sma then with 20sma, wouldn't let run to lower BB to far, BB going away so volatility increasing to.
5. Enter with
6. Enter near the low BB, notice stalled at the top BB

Never Play counter trend with the BB range so after 6 don't go short as it could blast onward, then hard to know when to kill the trade.

Want more ?? that's a good sample, zero losers except around 1 if still short ofcourse, or 3 if over tight on the panic exit.
 
Minor changes too much indecision making me not take trades.

Bb 20sma 2.0 still, also 1.0, 1.0 good entry with slow trends.

9's gone, 5sma as a fast trigger on its own.

Will see how it looks live, at work though so just watch likely today.
