- brick911 replied Dec 12, 2006
Dude - Hilmy, I completely screwed up your poll. I'm looking at it and I'm thinking to myself, "Shit - why is my largest loss so much bigger than my largest win." Then I went ahead and clicked the 500-1000 (because I once lost 900 pips). My biggest ...

10. GBP/USD... short, not looking good right now. (-70) 4 for 10 (-130 so far) This is getting embarrassing. I'm thinking of taking my avatar and replacing it with something that isn't me. Regardless, maybe around my two hundredth trade or so, I'll ...

Jacko, I love your advice and the way you deliver it. I follow a 180 minute trend now, and go for small profits. (If you are wondering where the 180 minute time frame comes from, I bought 4X Made Easy... yeah, yeah - laugh it up.) Anyway, traders ...

8. EUR/GBP, long, .6760, TP - .6784, SL - .6748 Moved stop to a 5 pip trailing stop (+4) *I moved my stop on this, because of Trichet's speech. I am not an economics guy, but I saw the EUR/USD going wacky, and didn't want to risk the few pips I had ...

Yeah - that sucks big! Steve Smith, on the other hand, is awesome. He reminds me so much of one of our local heroes, Allen Iverson. They are both awesome, confident, and have the heart of a million champions. Kinda like T.O. without all the ...

4. EUR/CAD, long, 1.5195, TP - 1.5266, SL - 1.5146 PT Hit (+71) 1 for 3 (+1 so far) If I keep this up, I'll be rolling in it in no time (sarcasm). But seriously, with the two losses earlier, this is a good display of proper risk/reward ratio. I keep ...

I think the dollar sellers are exhausted and even bad numbers are not gonna effect it any more in the long run. We may see spikes, but I think the dollar is going to turn around. I believe instances like this may be an indicator. I have only been in ...
