I can see where today gbpusd gave a few nice signals to hop on and make some pips. problem is often when I turn this thing on I've missed to bulk of the NY session. Well I ejected my self early and this happens all the time. I need to come up with a better trailing stop plan. Don't get me wrong I'm very happy with the trade but I always leave huge pips on the table. Does anyone have a solution to this?

Here is a chart using Aroon. All open positions tonight based off 4h tf. Part of my quest is trying to find my way. Aroon is a lagging indicator and so price action or another entry must be used in conjunction.

Set these to B/e:
Eurjpy
gbpusd
audjpy
gbpjpy

Well one order gave another R2 multiple and the other I closed R-.70

I've not tried trading daily/4h charts and so we shall see. For the heck of it I placed a few buy/sell stops before going to work. I thought what the heck. Well to my surprise AUD/USD triggered long and currently +53 and AUD/NZD triggered short. In fact to come very close to hitting my target before reversing. Anyway finding my way has not been easy and it is the constant search for the holy grail that messes me up.

I had to drop the Cowabunga as It just does not fit my personality. So for now my quest continues forward.

2 pending orders short usd/jpy and gbpjpy under lows.

Didjerdu, just google it and you will find a ton of stuff on how it is used. I tried to upload the indicator for MT4 but for some reason it will not allow me to do it...
