DislikedThanks for the welcome again. Nothing special has happened to me. I trade mainly on a daily base.
The next weeks I'll have less time intraday, but if I see a chance I'll take it. Beginning with january I'll have more time again...

DislikedLet me one thing add: The stop is the main problem for me. Often I get stopped out just to see the trend to be continued. For the cable I use a stop of 20 pips and a tp of 20 pips for now, so just a CRV of 1:1.
I even thought about a stop of 40 pips and a tp of 20 pips...

DislikedHi X
Yes, I agree with you.
Lately I also use a 25-30pip SL but I do have a line (in my mind - and I know Phillip draws such a line on his chart) 10pips away from my entry for a SL level. You need to have the discipline to exit your trade if it moves against you. Also just to be on the safe side and for that sudden tail that will trigger your SL and then move back in your direction.
For the TP, I do take every trade on its merit.Ignored
DislikedJust a question. You use, let's say a hard stop of 30 pips. So do you close your position on the candles close if it's below your 10 pips stop line to wait if there is some kind of false breakout?

Dislikedhi all,
this was my first trade of today and i took 14 pips.
i will have to use the method of 25-30SL and exit on 10 if it does not go where it should :-)
