make some $$$ or just practicing?

still practicing bro if you help me to grow up that would be help me to make $$$
 
Also have a look at entries based upon OBs, say H1/M30/M15, instead of Fibs. you may be pleasantly surprised with the increased precision.

excellent trade. better entry and exit than me! :)

its my luck someone experienced trader like you visit my journal thanks for your inspiration,
 
Nice to know I wasn't the only one targeting that. Running up on a Monday like that? Yeah, that's a classic Judas.

Just wish I hadn't missed the high by a smidgen and then went to bed.

exactly how much $ profit did you miss out on?

and followup question, is that an amount of money you legitimately feel emotional about missing out on?

Since it's Cable for me at the moment, the Money wasn't an issue. The issue was my first entry was at 1.5440. If you look closely, you'll see it missed that by 1/2 a pip, on the first run. When I went to look for a lower Retrace Order (around the NY Midnight level of 1.5432), I literally couldn't focus on the candles to chart properly. That's the "Welp, I'm done!" sign.

I just don't like missing trades that I was targeting because I was too tired. It's something I've gotten better at, but it's still irritating when I pop back to the chart.

You didn't answer the question. This is important for you to see the actual amount on screen. The only thing you should be feeling bad about is how bad you feel about "missing out on" insignificant amounts of money.

Also, my Cable high of the day was 1.54408 so you should've got filled.
 
I missed about 1.50 USD in profit. This is my Cable account, so it's quite small. (That's simply the stage my Cable trading is currently in.)

45 minutes before the high of the day, it ran just under 1.5440 then ran down and broke MS. Actually clipping the high again is a little rare, which is why I was attempting to setup a OB/Breaker entry. But, as I said, I couldn't look at a chart properly, so I was done for the day. Which, at this stage, I care about quite a bit about trading within my limits. I'm not highly irritated about missing Cable, as I've moved on already, but I do like to profit from the times my analysis is good.

And we should probably take this to PMs and not clog up Sakib's thread, if you want to continue.
 
Yea, sometimes i forget where I'm posting. I'd delete these posts, but Jack seems to think that every post that stands for 15min deserves to be permanently etched into the history books, lol

If it's not etched in Stone for All Of History, it ain't worth posting... or something. >:D
