I would ask you...in what timeframe is the harmonic wave analysis done? :)
ItsJ_
@edlund2005, Any Time Frame you can do, I prefer Higher Time frame 1 hour-daily. :) but the rules of Harmonic apply even down to a 1 minute time frame. :)
edlund2005
@Markame, Yes but in this case it's not very obvious where the harmonic pattern was applied, that's why the question.

@Markame, At what point and time would you consider this trade, no longer worth getting into? I'm at work, but I want to enter this when I get off!
The_Duke
@Markame this one did have a trailing stop that got you out at breakeven?
I don't understand how come some trades get you out at breakeven because you're using a trailing stop, Markame, and others that retrace over your entry point, but go back into profit, don't seem to hit your stop loss?
What;s the difference between this trade and your EURUSD trade that moved in a similar fashion?... This one takes you out at breakeven, but the EURUSD you stay in to get the big profit?
I'm confused mate...

is this still valid for these TPs again for new entries?
The_Duke
Frustrating - If I try to let my profits run, they turn around & evaporate into nothing, like this one, stopped at breakeven after being substantially up.
But I if I take the profit off the table, instead of letting it run, they go huge... Arrgggg....
The joys of trading.... grrrr.

@The_Duke, Instead of trading a single .10 for instance try trading 5 .02 lots or even 2 .05 lots. Then you take profit at targets and only potentially break even on 1/2 of what you wanted.
