TODAYS TRADE

Trading R1 today was a 100pip easy short – look left to the weekly chart to see why….

Horizontal level at 1600 was tested, broken, traded up to R1 at 16020 and then dumped back to find support at last months high the green F100% on the daily.
Plan Ahead

It is quite easy to plan several weeks or months ahead for a trade you that has a high probability – these are easy to find and trade with HTF trading times.

Statistically if you trade like this you earn far more – but brokers don’t like the fact you may only trade 20 to 50 times per year!

Scalpers will never be able to trade like this as they want the constant re-assurance of little wins… each to their own.
