I keep trading as I mentioned below and traded price actions not the patterns and has %7 DD in minutes.
this is the difference between price actions and patterns.
I will recover from here with patterns. I am trading like that due I want to train my self to recover.

Steve, considering your small target of 5 pips what's matter for you if GU break to downside or not? consolidation must be your bread and butter.

when you trade 1min chart with 5 pip target you can understand what I mean.

sure you can not trade with 5 pip spread. I mean there is no difference between 1min chart and 1 Hr chart. only speed is different.

as I had mentioned below. I kept trading and traded different patterns and price actions. Lost down to -%11 ( totally -%15 from where I was ).
now again started to trade only patterns with tighter SL/exit level. currently I am up to -%7.80 ( 2.20 recovered )
if I can recover from here and got up then will start trading live again.
also then I will share why I tested this action. I guess I had an idea why traders making mistakes in winning periods and start loosing.

Ok. I got up to -%6.65 ( daily +%1.20 ). then keep trading and start to make mistakes.
I should find why I start making mistakes after daily %1-1.5 level break.

I also improve the RR ratio to 1:1.20
it is almost 1:1 which is great.
But I should find the mental reason of why I start making mistakes after certain profit level. actually I am not looking for daily %5 %10. that is not the point the point is why I change my trading desecions after some point of level????

what I noticed is ( thanks to MFB ) price actions catch me when US open hours. and I enter the trades that I must not enter.

another fault is, when I guess the price move and if it goes as I had predict and when if I did not take that trade, I took the next move no matter what even if I know that it will fail and after I see I made a mistake I dont exit and insist on stay in trade most probably until SL hit.

regarding to my trading hours, most of the time I make profit before US open and when US open I cought by the price actions and open wrong trades. I think this is the main issue for me currently. first I must stop that mentally then will go back to live.
not trading at US hours is not an option. I must fix the mental error, stop trading US hours is only will hide it.

before US session I am up to %0.58 today. I am clean no Drugs(GRID)!
if it would be live I would NOT stop. I will keep trading US and want to break that mental limit.

I stop here. it is good to have some positive trades in US session. I guess I understand the reasons. I will post it later.

reasons
- after some hours I lost the focus. I need to leave trading for some minutes after every trade. this reset mind.
- most probably I start US session with profit and this make me over trusted.
- If I stop trading in mind and then start trading after that desecion again I make huge mistakes.
- due to start US session in profit(most probably) I start saying 'try this' instead of 'xxxx pattern' and after entering that 'try' when trade goes against me I got angry and wait until SL.(SUICIDE)
So my desecion is I will stop trading and shut down machine after having a reasonable profit/loss.
as you can see from the account history SL are so tight and there are no more grid and rescue operations. I am still having max 2 trades on some trades to average the price. due no one can know how much it will pullback. but those 2 trades using the first opened trade SL at the same level. means I DO NOT WIDEN SL AFTER OPENING THE 2 TRADE.
and there are examples of SL hit averaged trades at the history.
a lot of things had been changed until I start 'pattern' system but I guess I am at the wright track with
- cancelling rescue operation
- tigtenning SL
the trades at the history with 1-2 PIP profit/loss are the exits of damaged patterns after entry.

see price average action.
this has a possibility of very fast move from where I opened the first trade and also poss of pull back.
I took my chance and opened where it could rocket but pulled back to MA 30 so I opened average trade on that point.
when averaged I do not wait until TP due the Lot is doubled and risk is doubled. when reached a certain point I press the close all button for related symbol and EA closes all. ( white vertical line )
PS also see price has roceted after first trade but then pulled back.
again see SL TP ratio it is less then 1.35
