    Hi all,

    Attached is my attempt at Practical Exercise 6.

    I listed the pulse and pull backs for GBPUSD 5 Minute and 15 minute charts.

    Each time I obtained a Pulse Move, I adjusted the stop to the resistance for the 15 Minute chart, and Support for the 5 minute chart. Each stage is colour coded.

    Trying to do this while not feeling well is a challenge!

    I made a right mess of submitting my work this time!

    so re-submitting.

    I listed the pulse and Pull backs for GBPUSD 5 and 15 minute charts, and each time I obtained a Pulse Move, I adjusted the stop to the resistance for the 15 Minute chart, and Support for the 5 minute chart. Each stage is colour coded.

    Sorry for the confusion above.

    Nigel,

    Looks good. I don’t see the MOR marked up on either screenshot, is it above the area? On the 5 minute chart you show a buy trade. Doesn’t the daily plan indicate that this is a sellers market? I appreciate that there is some discretion to be employed but as the MOR takes priority I wouldn’t have been looking for buy trades. Just trying to get this right in my own mind.

    Regards

    John

    Thanks John for your reply.

    In this case, I have not ploted MOR or DOR as I was focusing on setting the stop losses, and trailing stops. This was mainly to save time, as I am behind schedule for this course so far.

    What I learnt from this exercise, is that in my real life trading, I have been far too generous in the stop losses. I will apply this to my OMT trades, so that I don’t leave too many pips on the table.

    Regards

    Nigel

    Hi Nigel,

    Your application of the stop loss looks fine on those charts:-)

    Hi,

    Here are my charts for 15min and 5 min entries and stops. I trailed the stops after a move above or below swing highs/lows.

    I added in a customised fib tool that shows you the risk return – the 5 min trade would have worked out quite nicely!

    Nicely done Stephen. Was your mouth watering at the sight of that 5min trade? 😉
