lost all my profits again. not sure what GY is gonna do next. it's behaving very oddly lately
- pipbunny replied Jun 26, 2007
lost pretty much all my profit. should have followed my gut feeling and locked in the 200 pip this morning. now i have no idea where it will go. could have really used those pips. still barely in the positives for june

well i don't have any indicators that would pick up the pullbacks on this scale really. they are too unpredictable if you ask me. according to my strategy and the SMA it will still continue to fall and the pullbacks should not go too far up. or so ...

its not looking good!!!! wish i would have locked in my profits.....right now it's almost at the SL and keeps going up......damn.....
- pipbunny replied Jun 26, 2007
yeah thats kinda what i am thinking. i used the high of the 4 hour candle to decide on my SL.....still have problems with the fibs. i know they are basic but somehow i just cant figure it out to work for me properly. so i use the 4 hour candle ...

i did move the stops to positive territory a while ago....i was at +170 and + 130 for GY but now it's back down to +120 and +80......my stops are at 246.40 for now, but i am afraid to lose the profit i have right now. looks like its going up now....

of course i went short....after all the yesterday was a bearish candle, so i followed the strategy and sold......i hope everyone else did as well....i wonder whether it will keep going or whether i should move my stop closer and where to....

- 60 on GY.....GU is still going at -12 eurusd got stopped out twice for -40 pip total using a slightly modified strat so bad day today
- pipbunny replied Jun 22, 2007
+130 on GY today.....yay!!!
- pipbunny replied Jun 22, 2007
well i trade GU with the modification that i decide on the direction according the the past 5-6 hours before my trade. so i went short instead of long yesterday.....a lot of times this approach works better though than basing the trade on the ...

well doesnt matter how much loss or profit....it's for overview's sake and will help later to keep things straight when it gets into tax issues etc.
- pipbunny replied Jun 22, 2007
yeah i do the same thing, i was just wondering whether there is a way to isolate single positions in the trading platform and export them to a file. you know, something more automatic which also lowers the risk of typos
- pipbunny replied Jun 22, 2007
yeah that was my idea too.....but so basically you punch in everything each day by hand as well right....

i just calculated my pips for june so far.....-50 pip on GU and GY combined....not too great but i will modify some more.... how do you guys record your pips? i had to punch them in a calculator for each position because i also trade other ...

maybe once it gets past 248 one should consider TP and reversal orders so one can ride the reversal when it hits??? any thoughts on that?
- pipbunny replied Jun 22, 2007
+64 on GY from a previous trade and up +126 on the second GY trade. - 40 on GU from last night i wonder when the retracement will hit. i'm tempted every night to go short instead of long but so far i haven't

i agree that the fib levels might be useful in this case, but they do very much complicated the originally simple approach because it all comes down to guessing again. in any case i would be willing to give it a shot. is there a way to put fib ...

as far as profitability with 2 vs. 1 trade a day goes maybe we should make sure we separate GY and GU very carefully......maybe it works on GU with two trades but GY def. is a loser if you trade with 2

i have only forward tested this live for several months. had i not used the 2nd trade the entire time i would have made much more profit than i have now.
- pipbunny replied Jun 20, 2007
i really think there must be something messed up with your results, because i agree that the 2nd trade is usually a loser if the first one was a loser. so i am not sure why you find the 2nd trade to add so much to the profit. can someone else say ...
