current trade i am in:

i took this trade, forgot to post it live...

that last GU trade got stopped out...

thank you Yakuza, i appreciate it very much...

just for fun, i calculated my win/loss rate since i started this live trading journal. i won 61% of trades. 100% of trades moved in the direction i predicted, all my losses were due to adjusting my stoplosses, except one trade (where price came down to within a hair of my take profit, and then...

okay, so i will try not to get sucked into the games. i'm just trying to talk price action...does anyone else on this site trade price action? i honestly just started this thread because i can't contribute to the other methods and i don't see a lot of discussion about price action. if not...

saw a signal on the 4 hour chart for GU followed by inside candle...going to short it:

my last open trade closed out hitting my take profit. account up 2.3 % since my return to trading, i'll take that small victory :)

This trade is a screw up on my part. First of all, I was greedy and set my TP at more than my usual 3x risk...I do this too often and regret it, this is the last time I swear! So, you will see that price dropped down as expected, but I didn't close out of the trade since TP wasn't hit. Then...

This EA trade closed out successfully, and a NU trade I had taken (see thread Price Action with CndlstckChic) did drop as I expected it would, but apparently I had tightened my stoploss and yet again got myself stopped out. This is what I was talking about on another thread with needing to have...

My objections are to being made fun of repeatedly when I have posted with good intentions. I am not saying we have to all trade the same way, I am saying that I did the low time frame scalping bit where trading took over my life and my wrecked my account - and I have found a better way FOR ME...

why are you all being so hostile? jesus, all i said was that there is real merit in trading the higher time frames. yes, it's slower, but there is less risk involved, less investment of your time is necessary, and the candle signals are more likely to hold value (than the lower ones). and...

wow...okay. well, here are some trades, if anyone wants to talk price action, shoot...

Be honest with yourself, do you seek excitement in your trading or is your true motivation to be profitable? I was inspired by the example of a mentor of mine today, to talk about patience, whether that is the patience to wait for the right trading conditions, to wait for a signal, or wait...

I'm not an ICT follower and I honestly cannot contribute or gain much from the many posts on this forum that focus on that methodology, so I was hoping to create an open discussion type of thread about simple price action for traders who are interested in learning or sharing their knowledge...

update, both making progress:

Disclaimer: anything you read below is my humble opinion, I do not claim to have been the original progenitor of any of these concepts, but just want to list the benefits of PA as I understand them (because I don't see a lot of PA specific material on this site and I do believe it is the best...

Decided to sell on EURAUD

Almost half way there...must have patience (blue line where price is now) ;D

Well it is taking a few days, but today's candle does look promising...hoping this trade crashes down to my take profit soon.
