Hi all, I’ve been trading the forex markets on-and-off the past few years. In 2019 I put serious effort into refining my approach to trading FX (pure price action) and making it work with my current lifestyle (i.e. working a full-time job). Results have been good on demo. As I am trading an account with real money now with the same methodology, I am starting this blog to share with the community what has worked for me. This is the blog: https://bfpmfund.wordpress.com/
As I work a full-time job and spend most of the remaining time on trading, I will be posting 2x a week (Sundays & Wednesdays for now). I’ve linked my live myfxbook tracking my account in the blog to document my progress.
Please let me know what topics interest you and do subscribe if the focus of this blog interests you!
Sounds promising. You’ve certainly gone about this in the right order - demo then live - and you’re making demo money. Too many people think the sequence goes, “Ready, Fire, Aim!”.
What’s the basic strategy you have been using please?
thanks tommor - I’ve always been a conservative person so it never sat right with me to potentially lose real $$ before being able to make some fake $$ somewhat consistently in demo. 
The basic strategy is to trade S/R levels. Most of the time is spent analysing how the market has been moving on Daily/H4/H1 timeframes (i.e. price action), and deciding which S/R levels look the most likely to be where the pullback/market turns. Principles used to interpret price action are the common ones that most people know about (trends, swing points, support/resistance, channels etc.). Generally the system loses 1R on a loss and wins 2-4Rs on wins.
Reviewing my demo trades, most trades happen on the H1 timeframe because more candles develop on the H1 timeframe.
