My First Look At GBPUSD LONG ON THE DAILYThis is my first ever post on GBPUSD.
I am very new to trading and THIS IS NOT A LIVE TRADE I am just checking my trading plan to see if I can go live very soon but with lots of confidence.
So please go easy on me. I welcome any feedback good or bad.
Thanks

USDJPY H4 HOW TO TRADE A DESCENDING TRIANGLE + PULLBACK SHORT £$Clean and insightful USD/JPY publish with overview on trading a Descending Wedge - just my opinion anyway :)
The base range is the distance from the highest point of the range to our marked low point.
We then take this same distance to determine the potential size of the breakout
Note how close USD/JPY came to reaching this potential level
in my experience price often pulls back to the level of its breaks out before continuing in set directional trend, lets see if that happens.
Stop inside of wedge, target still base range, proportional boxes give an idea of the momentum expected in short falls,
Fibonacci retracement level based of major high/low points within descending wedge, notice how it highlights key levels of price action within the wedge
161.8% level also strong confluence with potential target
Channel commodity index also in steady down motion
Good Luck and Happy Trading :)
EURAUD: Reviewing The Tape (Education not a trade idea)I've already written my "Trading Recap" blog post for today but I wanted to share something with you guys. For you guys that have been following along with my blog you know that I've been working on an article looking at professional athletes and professional traders. One of my main comparisons is the amount of preparation and review that both do.
Just like Peyton Manning or Tom Brady do after every game, after each trading day I review the tape, meaning that I go back through my trading day and critique myself. After all, in this industry we are our own bosses so if we don't do it who will?
Last night I posted a trade looking for a potential breakout to the upside on EURAUD, although we did test the highs of our previous structure level we never got the break that I was looking for and it ended up being a scratch trade (breakeven). This morning in our Warroom meeting Jason Stapleton fired off 2618 idea for this same pair. (I'll attach a link to the FREE 2618 training at the bottom of this post). In the live room we ended up finding a bearish Cypher at the same level and ended up getting short as well. After banking some good pips, I spend the rest of our session going through the rest of my portfolio and basically but this pair on the back burner.
BIG MISTAKE, if only i would have paid more attention to it, i would have seen that IF our 2618 setup were to rally to 2nd targets THEN we'd also have a Bat pattern completion which we plant a stop & reverse at. So yeah I left a few pips on the board today but the important part is that I was able to identify my mistake and turn it into a learning experience. For those who don't take the time to review their day, well that mistake may continue to be a future mistake.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I'll see you next week at the Technical Trader Workshop!!!
