looks like i've had an excellent exit on the gbpusd pair.

i'm keeping an eye on this pair as there should be an entry in the next couple of days. as seen from the image, the price might go up or down, once it decides on a direction, i'll wait for a channel to form and enter with the channel's direction.
is anyone trading like this? i would love to hear some suggestions or your experiences.

jenks, i prefer to not trade on lower time-frames than 4 hours, but i will try to explain it with your example.
i look for channels of price, so you have to have 2 parallel trend lines, one support and one resistance. in your case you're forming a kind of triangle. so in the 1 hour time frame it would looke like this:

the stop is usually behind the previous price when it touched the trendline (support in case of a long, resistance in case of a short). the stop is actually only a safe-guard. once you recognize a new channel, you should close the trades in the wrong direction.
currently, i don't think there's a reliable channel as the price stick to the resistance. it should spread equally throughout the whole channel.

Many thanks for that Biz, i'll keep working on it.
great.
moving to my next trade - looks like an excellent setup in the 4h, eurusd :

as you can see, the entry point now lies on a double support - the support of the primary channel, and the support of the broken secondary channel (resistance becomes support and vice versa) - which increases the probability of this trade.
take profit is the resistance of the the channel on the daily, and sl is about the the same distance as the take profit, so i would say this is a 1:1 risk:reward, although the levels can change as the price develops.

Biz i'm a bit confused as to your target, as on my chart the resistance on the channel on the daily is much higher. It seems to be developing into a nice trade for you anyway but just thought i would ask you to clarify for me.
Many thanks
Jenks
Jenks, this is a correct observation.
whenever i have a wide channel, there is a natural support/resistance going right through the middle of the channel:

my theory is that price only moves straight when there are no support or resistance blocking it, or else it will just move to the next support/resistance area.
so that's why i will exit at the nearest major resistance (if we get there).

just exited the eurusd at breakeven, too bad as it was developing nicely.
the price failed to brake resistance, and now looks like it's heading down.
will wait for another entry.

trying a long position in the gbp/usd.
here's a 4h chart:

looks like it's going to continue the uptrend and break upside.
stop-loss and target are not set yet, will see how it develops.

the gbpusd is going down currently, but i'll try another long at the next support(original trade still open).
missed the entry several times, but got in with another long near support levels.

looks like the eurusd is ready to resume it's uptrend.
take a look at the previous candle, like before, it signals a possible up movement, so trying here a long with a stop just below the previous candle's low, and the target is the resistance of the channel.
