I will try to ride my trades

 

Hi,

In this thread I will try to talk and show the trade I take. I will put some pics when I think it will help me to understand why I get a hit or banked pips the wrong way.

You should move this thread to the Post and Compare Trades section of the forum. And if that is your real name, I would quickly edit it out. And if you want people to understand what your trades are, I would omit the ticket number, commission, taxes, and maybe even swap. Less clutter, and easier to read. Or you really have to post a table format for the data. Right now, it is just a bunch of numbers smashed together and misaligned to their titles. I know I can't understand or read it with this present configuration. It would be interesting to see a fellow trader's trades. Is this demo or live?

I understand your comment and I will try to do my best.

I will post summary of my account as a pics later.

I enter long in USDJPY with price 89.989.

I have also exit my UsdChf trade with a hit at price 1.14766.

This account is live.

 

Right on, brother! Live account is when the real emotions come out and play with you. Good to see another trader in the live arena with actual money on the line.

You can use it to keep track of your progress, financially and emotionally. Seems like you are off to a good start. May the Market smile on the both of us.

Riding a trend or a trade is very difficult, I have a hard time as well.

Thanks !

Well this is not my first journey

And my usd/chf that was +54.61 and ended -7.31 is not so fun but that's part of the game.

Oh the name of the game "ride the trend and jump out correctly"

 

Trend is our friend.

Yes, in my thinking, not riding a successful trend long enough is considered a failure because the next cycle of chop will wipe you out if you don't make enough money on the previous trend.

 

Some update

I try do ride some trades.

Here is the status of my account and my current trade.

Hopes this version is better ?

Soon some pics.

 

^ It looks great.

 

Show me pips ....

Still on my trades ....

Show you my E/u chart setup.

 

hi

Fine i agree its okay to ride trade but nevertheless dont be mistakenly there are some trades that if you dont take your profit or partial profit you will end up paying for it.

I can tell you its not always good to learn the hard way but most of us do.
