Pre-Analysis:-


- AUDJPY in uptrend. The pair also in trend alignment  for daily, 4 hour & hourly timeframe.

- Plan to take profit at the previous high (resistance area), price already move up significantly and may correct deeply.

Entry:-


Post Analysis:-

- I closed the trade as planned, profit took at previous high.
- I decided so because I think this move already a secondary move before deep correction happen.
- Price in actual move higher a little bit and reach max profit of 3R. 
- After that price retrace and could hit trailing stop loss if I used it. The amount was approx the same as my exit point.

15 Apr 2022: AUDCHF

 AUDCHF long trade on 15/4/22

Pre-Analysis:-


- Trend shows this pair was in uptrend.
- Correlation however not in the group of the strongest nor the weakest currency. Hence I decided to reduce the risk to only 0.5% of account balance.
- I decided to still took the trade as I am lack of decent trade along this week.



Entry:-


Post Analysis:-

- I closed the trade with loss.
- This trading day in public holiday (Good Friday), banks mainly closed business therefore liquidity was very low, no active activity in the market.
- Spread also widen a little bit compare to normal business day.
- Lesson, never trade if public holiday impact the amount of activity in the market, market will not move on the absent of big banks.
