LESSONS LEARNED:
- Follow the Rules! (Trade 3) Trade in the Direction of the Trend, Counter-Trend Trades ONLY on a Re-Test of a NH or NL. CREATE A CT TRADE CHECKLIST.
- SOMETHING TO CONSIDER: Look at Longer Time Frame (9 Min Chart) Trend to determine whether or not to take Normal Entries on an EURP and EDRP. For example, If 9 Min Chart Trend is UP, trade a 3 Min EURP as normal and disregard a 3 Min EDRP (Expect to Enter SHORT on a Larger Retracement following a 3 Min EDRP since Longer Time Frame (9 Min) is UP = Momentum favors Buying).
