EURUSD Day Trading Weekly Review (May 9-13) - Another Great Week

The following is the weekly review for the forex strategies covered in the EURUSD Day Trading Course.

Below are the charts highlighting the patterns that occurred during the week, as well as comments on the price action of the day and how that affects our trading decisions.

These strategies can be traded anytime during the London session and up till about noon EST.
Most days I trade from about 830 to 10 EST.
My charts are MST (EST minus 2 hours).

These strategies are based on a 1-minute chart.

This week I took a number of trades that aren’t specifically covered in the course, but are based on similar price action concepts. I will be adding a new video to the day trading course discussing this additional strategy.

EURUSD Day Trading Strategy Review

Charts are for May 9 – 13, in order.
Charting provided by TradingView.

EURUSD day trading examples May 9 — A number of patterns covered in the course on May 9. As well as some trend continuations trades (the orange one is good example of that…even though I missed it).

EURUSD day trading examples May 10 — Once again, some classic patterns as well as trend continuation trades. Had an add-on trade, which can greatly enhance returns when they both hit the target. Basically two trades, but with little additional risk because the stop loss of the first trade can be moved to the stop loss of the second trade.

EURUSD day trading examples May 11 — Big movement following CPI news and it was nearly all trend continuations. RT on the last trade.

EURUSD day trading examples May 12 — Mostly trend continuations again on May 12.

EURUSD day trading examples May 13 — Nice big RT for the long (my re-entry). The rest were trend continuation trades. A little choppier.

I miss trades too! If you see anything that was a good opportunity, let me in the comments.

You can probably see the continuation pattern is relatively simple and is very much like trading the right half of an RT or RB.

With the increased volatility, I picked a SL size and generally stuck with it for the day, maybe adjusting it slightly. This means my SL wasn’t always in the exact right position, but a slightly smaller SL also makes the target smaller and easier to hit.

“R” in trading is a standardized risk amount. It could be 1% of the account, 0.5% of the account, or any amount you choose based on your position sizing method.

In other words, if risking 1% of the account per trade, 45R means a 45% profit. If risking 0.5% per trade, it means a 22.5% profit.
