I really love the ZL/MZ methodology. It is fantastic. I see how it can be applied to H1 charts with good success. The problem is my work schedule only allows me to trade about 4 hours a day. I a trying to convert my new found knowledge to a M5 chart.
When I watch a M5 chart it seems to have similar characteristics as the H1 chart. So now I am going to analyze the M5 and so far it looks promising.

If you believe you are going to lose your account, you have a 99% likelihood you will accomplish what you believe. If I may suggest stop trading live money immediately and begin assessing and learning. You know what doesn't work, begin learning what does work. With you beliefs, you will achieve that which you believe, no more no less.

just make sure you are aware of where the higher time frame momo is and where you are at in the bigger picture.
it is easy to get caught up in just what the m5 chart is doing and it can whipsaw you back and forth.
also,
its key to note in the chart you posted that the h1 ( during that period) was clearly momo to the downside--- and as a result you were trading in the direction of profit--- and low and behold you made pips

Bend over and assume the position for another 4 years of hope and change.

and noticing that and acknowledging that is a good thing
it wasnt so much the h4 downtrend, but the h4 down momo bar you bought into.
basically they fooled you by showing momo on the h1-- which looked like it was going to go up-- but they formed the h1 bars like that right back into the huge h4 down momo bar--- which was a short setup.
your trade could have just as easily worked-- but odds are the h4 momo wins that battle----- most times

Thanks for the reply ES. I also took this entry pre asian open so I think timing has a little part as well. I have made a note. I'm still working out a exit strategy I hold way to long. I notice that if its going to go my way it normally does within five to ten minutes but not sure if this is s good gauge to exit.

I'm with you on this.
Just up the pip value and lower the daily requirement.
Here is my version of trading with m5 direction and m1 price action.

And here is the m15 direction using m5 momo to take the trade.........

These charts continue all the way to daily's....May only trade m5's but Look at them all.heheheehe
