E/U Intra-Week Entry Revised
As posted at the beginning of the week, I was look to go long E/U @ 1.3850. Price came within 10 pips during London Session yesterday before moving north for 140 pips. (missed it oh well).
I will now look to enter long @ 1.3750 and 1.3700. Hopefully we can reach these levels before the week ends.

Precission Trade Update
Short from Power Level 1.3998, closed 50% @ 1.3980, the remaing 50% of this position hit TP @ 1.3910. (+6.54% or $760)
Went long from Power Level at 1.3908, entry was 1.3903, I was going for +30pips on this one, price got to +20 before reversing (technically if your trading your levels you should take profit here or atleast turn the position into a risk free one, I was riskign excess profits for big gains though)....
Trade closed after price broke 2 spinning bottom candles, these generally mean reversal, but price broke down, so closed trade for a -3.63% or -$452 (note: this was a larger position to my normal position, but I was willing to risk it, as I am usign aggressive MM technique here)
That is ok though, I am up 2.6% for the day today, and was risking profits.
Taking break from the screen, I will not trade short from 1.3908 Power for next 5 hours now, as for me it will be 'revenge' trading.
Good Luck Guys, hope your doing good :)
E/U Precission short @ 1.3998
Nice spike up to the Power Level @ 1.3998, took a short.Covered half of my position @ +16 pips, and moved my SL to -10 pips.
I am now gauranteed +6 pips on this trade.Both power levels worn out now (1.3998 & 1.3968), so I am letting my rest of position run to next power level at 1.3908. Here I will take profits and look to go long.
I Love IT!

A/U Setups
Took a long on AUD/USD last night on one of my sub accounts. There was a nice bounce off the 100EMA on the Hourly Chart. Targeting 0.7900, Where, depending on Price Action I will look to go short.
My short targets will be the Blue Trend Line (derived from the daily lows). This show be around 0.7450-0.7500, Once/if we get there I will look to go long once more with a manual trailing stop, no profit target for that trade at this moment.

Next Trade Planned Out
Looking to go Long @ 1.3640-1.3650, with a Profit Target of 1.4000. SL will be around 22 pips from entry once more.
This trade is dependant highly on price action, and I may not take it. If I do I will update the blog, and look to move my SL to Break Even as soon as possible, or take partial profits.

Its all about precision
2 Winners (+23pips & +1pip)
Update
Trade #5
Went long off a bounce off 1.3534, entry was @ 1.3539, exited @ 1.3562 for +23 pips.
I also place a pending short order @ 1.3566 Power Level, but have cancelled this, as I want to monitor price action due to an expected spike up through this power level towards the Blue Trend Line.
The blue line is a trendline from the highs on an hourly chart, expecting some resistance there, So this may be an extra reason to short at the 1.3566 Power Level Bounce, although i would try to wait for 1.3576 to enter... will try and get in the trade at a good price, or may miss it all together...
Missed Opportunity...

Trade #3
As I stated before "looking to go long of a bounce from 1.3468 power level"...
I entered long @ 1.3471, after a strong hourly candle above this level.
Entry was confirmed by the 15m spinning top/bottom candle. These candles mark indecision in the market and are a sign of a reversal from the previous candle.
Exited at 1.3499, round number psych level.Trade size was only half a normal position (or 50,000units). I will stick to this rule for all breakout trades, and only use full positions on Power Level Bounces.
Summary:
Trades taken: 3
Winners: 3
Next Trade:
Will look to short @ the next power level 1.3534 for a quick 20pips, or go long from 1.3648 again in a few hours time...
Trade Activated
Trade #2
Excellent precision entry off the power level @ 1.3468. Could have easily bank 20pips profit. I was looking at more, so moved SL to Break Even for a free trade, but got stopped out at BE. Will wait till the next trade.
I will probably not short from the 1.3468 power level again for 24hours or so.
Next trade
Still looking to go long @ the 1.3391 Power Level for 20 pips. Or a long off a good bounce opporunity from 1.3468 in an hour or 2 if we get it.
So far 2 trades, 0 losers... stay tuned.
Trading with Precision...
