DislikedConcerning the NZD, could its relatively high interest rate - the highest by far of all the major global currencies - be said to be a fundamental reason to look to buy it if it had started really trending up on the weekly against the USD?Ignored
DislikedGraviton, would be really great to hear more from you about trailing stops in long duration trades. If you are taking requests I would love for you to touch on where/how to add lots, moving to BE, and bailing out within that.Ignored
DislikedHi G, you said it has no psychological effect on you if you check fundamentals or technicals first. A similar question would be if it also does not influence you if you work from low to high time frames or high to low? The reason I ask because you said you start from the low TF's usually. Most technical analysts do the opposite way so first they see the big picture and then they work themselves down to the smaller TFs into detail. Just wanted to know if this is any value for you or it doesn't matter at all. Thanks, IBOIgnored
DislikedIs the fall of the EU over? Technicals say maybe not. See the Monthly channel below. I've taken a little more than +2,500 pips profit off this one, cashing in the oldest 4 lots. Still carrying 7 lots short on it. {image}Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi G., considering the greek election yesterday the EURO will have a very hard trip to not go done furthermore, I think. Looking at your chart....the red lines near the bottom side of the down channel.....are they TP lines? I am very curious to hear your comment on handling trail stops ( as lemna asked) as I am still experimentalising to find the right way staying in winning trades as long as possible but not loosing to much pips if price returns..... Need to work out clear behaviour patterns which I can be confident with ( Sorry for...Ignored
DislikedCashing in profits today. A fantastic start to the year and just going to exit with my profits and relax a bit. Planning to attempt to increase lot size when I re-enter. That's one of the most difficult things to do. The risk is always that we make a good return at lower lot sizes, then quickly lose it back trading larger positions. It will require some extremely conservative trading for quite some time.Ignored
DislikedGood morning Graviton, have you ever used to COT report to confirm the ongoing trend/plot a reversal or to use it and see how the big players position themselves on the market? It can definitely help to understand market sentiment. What do you think? IBOIgnored

Disliked{quote} Yes, I do look at the COT report from time to time. Things like the COT and strength of currencies charts and various fundamental data reports help to clarify my macro picture of the markets. If for instance there was a large position taken by large traders that the USD would fall, and I was net long, I would have to ask what do they know that I don't? These are very large hedge funds and investment banks who must report their positions and they have lots of research ability and sometimes inside information. If my trading is diverging from...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Hi G. EU/USD might retrace a little bit but trend is still there, we'll wait and stick to our famous rsi rule? About USD/CAD. Most of the depreciation is due to oil crisis and IR cut. Do you think the market has fully discounted this information or the trend will keep going? Looking also for GBP/CAD, AUD/USD and some Others. Out of JPY pairs because of a trade that now would be countertrend type. Thanks BibiIgnored
DislikedGraviton, if you are making long-term entries with a 1 day ATR stop and looking to move to BE at maybe 2X daily ATR, what warning signs are you looking for to get you out of the trade early, and how do you balance that with not taking too many losses in situations where if you had sat tight it would have been OK? I remember you mentioned before that when it looked bad on the M15 time frame, you would usually get out.Ignored
