Hi there, my name is Ivan, FX trader. After studying varies sources of information for the past few years, my understanding of the FX market has improved dramatically, with this blog simply intending to share with you all a journey within my mind. When I make it to full-time trading, I know the first person I should be grateful to is an Aussie PA trader named Jonathon; He has been inspirational and an enormours influence to gauge where the money flows to. His trades can be followed at http://forexpriceactiontrader.blogspot.com/ . What price is telling you is key, as it always whispers in low or high intensity what market intentions are. I do not endorse the use of any indicators, as they are lagging in nature; analysis should be based on pure price action. Besides, other factors like sentiment, fundamentals, risk control, rock-solid discipline, thousands of hours readings charts, also make up the equation to succesfully ride the FX waves. When entry triggers are detected, I act without hesitation, letting the market do its thing. Please note, information and opinions contained in this blog are for educational purposes only and do not constitute trading recommendations, thus will not take responisbility for any losses viewers may have. Trading FX carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. Before deciding to invest you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. You should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
UPDATE ON MY OPEN TRADES
Holding SHORT positions in gold; my LONG in CAD/JPY is unaltered too, price retretead to test 21 EMA, my SL is still at decent distance. I spoted a large PB H4 on EUR/USD at KHL, but after 2 H4 candles, I have cancelled position, lows were never taken, momentum is still quite bullish...
Isnt it sweet to see that taking entry via a confirmation ie: pin breaking saves ya bum!
ReplyDeleteThis has literally saved me a house and yes on occasions I dont get the best RR but my win rate is far superior and I also play with stops to increase RR.
Nice one mate and kepe up the good work.
