Need somewhere to think out loud,

28th 9am trial this, yep going fast and furious tonight. That looked good, like how tight SL's are if nothing else, can be wrong often :)

turning up lng 12343 - SL 36 - saw 51 then BE Exit ish.

Sideways for AGESSS

Turned down - didn't get entry 12333 - 285 so far damn it, 33 for 100 LOL

9 turned up Long 12259 - 85 exit +16

Back to Env's 11sma 0.03 and 0.09, 22 too slow, 18 better. Nice!!!
 
Another day, another, I did not have the balls to trade todays madness, crazy crazy day!!

I should of got the earlier trend plays, 100% what I'm setup to murder :(

So did really give BB's a fair chance / enough time to master, so dumping all Envelopes totally, the range just needs changing all the damn time, it's find a setting, make money, see it's not working, find a setting and repeat, life just too damn short, literally.

So BB's it is.

BB 16sma 1.8 and 0.9.

Lets F12 sim it!! FUN!!!
 
DAX ofcourse, 26th Oct 9am gmt GO!!!

UT, LBB holding, no broke down.

LBB going flat, buyers @11115 so Long 11120 - SL 08 - straight to HBB exit 42 +27 no idea!

Moving off a base, good chance it'll go higher, don't short.

Long 11126 - SL 19 - exit 40 +14

Break down, should of shorted the high @40

Risky play, Short 11105 SL 17 (bb 0.9) - BE Trade

Abort restart, treating this wrong, more Range based trades I think
 
BB 13 2.4 and 1.2 looks better aswell, faster BB's become erratic sadly.

Nov 7th 9am ish!!

Up trend,

Got called out!!!

Watch it live, maybe jump in tomorrow, good chop method in sideways and a pretty good trend method, chop 70% profit rate 2:1 R:R, Trend 40% profit rate but 4:1 is possible if not 10:1 so kinda makes it worth the risk.

It's different, can't keep repeating envelope methods, too shorted lived from making loads to murdering me, maybe this will be long lasting ??
 
Nov 2nd, quick review then SLEEP!!!!

Short top range, goes to bottom nice.
looks like downtrend, but support holds and moves up from that, so buy support near low BB.
Support creates momo so uptrend for 35+ pts.
Downtrend , joining after break down woth 30pts, SL at 13sma and follow, nice.
down momo slowing off, mid BB holds then up, short near top BB netter small profit
Downtrend weak but entries at the 1.3 work great.
Forms a base, moves 40pts up from that.
mid trend pull back reversal area worked for 20pts.

Time to dig in, seriously stop messing with Envelopes and other method and master this setup.

Envelope 13sma, 1.3 and 2.6 SIMPLE as!!

Switching the chart between this method and envelope method, this is soo much clearer what the market is doing nearly all the time, where as envelope has a small functional market type likely 30% of the day, expecting 80% on this, just avoid news and US open first 30mins and sorted.
 
BE trade, SL just held avoided a -120, saw +90 but think internet lost the plot, damn weather.

Also realised, better off with windows pc, I’ve got a windows 10 tablet, can run mt4 pc version for easy SL setup and movement, doh!

Bb crushing into US open, see which way it breaks from the range.

Liking BB setup so far, need 100 hours watching and trading lightly to get fully into no doubt.
 
GRAIL FOUND, Grail just needs time to master :)

PROGRESS!!!!

Got Previous Template saved, my best method before switching BB's, looks like a messy stack of lines, sideways markets keep trying to say trend join me, this is loads better.

Slow assed day, on literally 0.00 with 2 trades LOL Trade day tomorrow or Friday not decided yet, think tomorrow, prefer to be in work on a Friday, people happier and lazier!!
 
Got to get my head around breakouts and joining, rather than sat here watching the market move 50pts waiting for a place to entry after a damn pull back for 6pts.

LOL
 
Tweaks HERE WE GO LOL

BB 16sma 1.4 and 2.8 Dev, slightly slower suites the BB better.

I played with adding a BB 32sma 1.2 or something, works great, but looks messy and I end up in the entire, it's doing this and this and I never trade.

Day off tomorrow, work on entry logic and grow some balls and try to place some live trades tomorrow, what's the worst that could happen LOL

Hopefully, making money again soon, better plan should = more money, less stress, no counter trend trades without SL's LOL so all worth it.

Counter trend, can happen, but it's a few mins of support / resistance at and area, enter and tight SL at new lows, but only when back inside the BB range and that's flattening, that's my that's long enough timer.

Must sleep tonight, a few late nights starting to kill me :(
 
Trend, better off with fixed Envelope, Chop BB.

So BB 11sma 3.0Dev
Envelope 11sma 0.05%
Envelope 5sma Close 0.03%


Old and new Blended!!
