Disliked{quote} Mingary, do you think, that you are some kind of missionare and we, rest of us, are some savages, who are waiting for saving our souls? If we look at FF as some academy and there peoples are for learn something. Then you looks like hooligan, who is distracting others from learning. Maybe you should create your own forum - antiFF or maybe only own thread in FF and then you all missionars can talk about us fool man's. And if some of us will lose this faith then he or she will go to your thread or forum and you then can cuddle him and so on....Ignored

Disliked{quote} It is so not like a business, at best it's the business of gambling. "If you cant make it in the forex market then most likely you'll never make it anywhere else" I hope you meant to say the opposite. Any steady job will make far more money than any forays in retail forex. Seems to me you are trying to mislead the gullible with such rubbishIgnored

Disliked{quote} I'm not completely sure why he hedged at exactly 11 pips; you would need to be a student of his to fully understand his trading method.

Disliked{quote} Depends on your time horizon. If you are a scalper - that's a huge cost relative to your profits (if any). If you are a daytrader/swing trader it's not that important, but you pay also the swap rate for the two positions, instead of just one. So if someone has a losing position - it would probably be best to analyze things and if the strategy doesn't work out the way you expected, close the position even before the stop loss is triggered. How big should the stop-loss be and how that affects profitability is another big and widely discussed...Ignored

Disliked{quote} That's what i've said There's no need for waiting,even for the stop loss to be activated. If all markets head in the same direction and you are totally caught off-guard, it's probably better to exit and rethink things, reducing the drawdown.Ignored

Disliked{quote} That boy. Can't tell you how many threads on here have people proclaiming that hedging (within the same instrument) provides a mathematical edge. It does not. The only benefit that a hedge could provide is some sort of mental discipline. But you would only be fooling yourself because it doesn't give you an edge on the market.Ignored
