good evening my friend from down under :-) I find it very difficult not to try help anyone who is obviously making a real effort (in any forum). Those who are just waiting for calls get no joy from me. Laziness has no part in a serious trader's schedule which is why I only talk analysis, not signals. Been there, done that and all that is achieved is an even lazier trader :-)

Hey Dave you are putting a lot of effort there.. getting ones fingers burnt while young can help later in life, as you know:-).. but I guess having good teacher can help saving ones hand from being chopped off..

you could place order entry titch above the high if your broker also takes consecutive SL order.

nah I love all sorts of music but not when trading. Even have to turn off my very polite squawk box gentleman sometimes to facilitate "concentration". The service has text also so I don't miss anything. Only turn the sound on for specific news announcements or commentary I dont want to watch on sat tv.

you did well with your trailing stop to catch most the move from your entry. You are talking about fading on the lower timeframes now to go long again while price moving down. Its your risk but not something I do myself without having some pattern confirmation on a retracement. The safer long re-entry is a coupla ticks back above the high and you dont lose any sleep about the 20 pips you may think you sacrificed. Never ever think you can catch 100% of any move. If you score 30% you gettin to be elite trader. 60% puts you in the very top echelons. Your fading inclinations are highly dangerous for you in the absence of fully understanding market structure. Supports and resistances can get trashed time and again sometimes. Thing is to try very hard to retain your profits so this means trading the safer ways imo.
