【Relaxed full-time trader's trade commentary】How to earn monthly income from the market
One day of the N-Method
This is the pound-yen.
It bounced off the monthly support.
Also the Bollinger Bands on both sides were closing, and the daily chart showed the opposite band closing as well, leaving it in a tight situation.
In my main trading activity, I skipped this rise.
In hindsight, I think I should have entered then.
I still had the bad habit of trying to win with knowledge, logic, and rules—“safe, secure, and certain.”
Instead, I shorted at the peak and closed around 4-hour chart minus 1 sigma during the early morning around 5 o’clock.
So I lead a nearly day-and-night reversed life. Of course, there are times when the Tokyo session moves as well.
Because the volatility is high, there are still a lot of pips, but in my main business the stop loss is tight, so the stop is very close.
This is the downside of trading in a high-volatility market: even if the direction is correct, a timing error can easily trigger a stop.
On the daily chart.
Pin bar forming, and the opposite band is closing.
This is what’s called a tight situation, but often there is a strong rebound.
The market needs a breather.
