POSITIONS AND CHARTS
AUD/JPY, USD/JPY, GBP/AUD
AJ: DAY BEAR CROWN
GA: BREAK DOWN TREND LINE, H1-H2 BULL CROWN
UJ: FIB SWING H4
UPDATE POSITIONS
not happy with my entries UJ & EG, closed
TRADES, POSITIONS AND EXECUTIONS:
I have been away from the computer a lot lately so only trading for a few hours at a time
Here are the latest. I closed the USD/JPY trade at a nice profit, expecting a re-entry at the swing rally
20 MAY 2022: AUD/USD LONG
H4 CHART FIB SWING:
The perfect entry for this Fib 618 Swing Trade was about 3.5hrs ago at 14:30 H2 candle close, but I wasn’t near my computer at the time. However, this entry still is within the H4 candle close 
Now is a matter of the trade working
CURRENT OPEN POSITIONS
We cashed in a few profits from the EU, GU trades knowing that there was a change for the retracement
I hoped to re-enter at a better price, but it didn’t quite work out at least not yet
I’ve also entered a few other trades as seen
RESULTS TO DATE: 14 MAR 22 - 31 MAY 22: +67.5% GROWTH
TOTAL TRADES: 520
TOTAL WINS: 146
WIN RATE: 28% (Previous 29%)
AVG WIN: $2,800
AVG LOSS: $746
REWARD: RISK RATIO: 3.75 (Previous 4.52)
Profits Growth: 67.5% (Previous 32%)
When comparing to the previous accumulated period, my R:R is much lower, my Win% about the same, yet my profit increase is doubled going up from 32% to 67.5%… 
Why? The only explanation I can think of is that i won more often when I had bigger positions and lose when I had smaller positions, since the R:R is not “weighted”…
Since I started mirroring as many trades as I could in my Demo account and reset it to start at $200K, we have grown +67.5% I believe this is a reasonably good result, what do you think?
Recently I started helping a family member to run his business while he is away, reason why I haven’t been posting my recent trades, so today I am listing just the execution blotter and the current open trades. This may continue being the case at least until his return by end of July
Being away from the computer for most part of the mornings have actually been quite productive. In the past, most of my “in & out losses” (that is entering a trade only to get out and repeat a few times), were caused because I “identified the good trades a bit early” that is I am right but I am quite early, so I entered a trade in the morning (Asian Session) and before the UK opened, I had been in and out a few times, “bleeding profits”…
Now, I am away most of the mornings, and start trading during the UK/US sessions. This has worked out quite well…
Anyway, here is the Demo History and the charts of the open trades:
GOLD: CURRENTLY FREE ROLLING
USDJPY: ALMOST AT B/E:
RECENT EXECUTIONS:
I just remembered, Some recent minor losses are not listed in the Demo because I didn’t have the chance to replicate them at the time. So the actual result might be around +65%
