IF 04-00 low triggers (4) we can hunt the adr, which will give us approx 50 points, dont forget we have a 00. i will not want the 50 but a good 20 which i will compound to death hopefully. Lets see

it was me playing, saying it was easy , it isnt that easy but on paper it is, you see lines you dont have to think.
I told you , my lil girl was trading at 9

04-00 Break AU today for me.....Went LONG, I entered at .76669 (i was going to enter 1/2 pip early but price was already pretty close to my upper trigger, so I didn't)......I set my first TP at .76719 and then I also had Buy Stop at x2 lot size waiting at .76720 and TP set at .76745 (just below the Quarter Line) I didn't want to take a chance at price reacting to the QL and reversing so I increased my lot size and went for less pips. DURING TRADE....... {image} AFTER TRADE...... {image}
I just noticed that price reversed really close to the oh so popular '80 line...(thanks claudia)

Yes indeed Mr T, i got 1 point lol (2%) i thought get the 1 then it would drop , which it didn't .
I shouldnt think as it will be the ruin of me.i am just waiting to see if Cable drops , hit the 04-00 low and hopefully pay for my Ladys hol, she has been invited to stay at a friends place in Florida over Christmas, i wont be going but i may as well pay for flight ticket.
In fact she might not go as she wants me to go too.

Billy -look at it this way : If you didn't go to Florida with your young lady, would you look back in later years and regret not going?

On another note, Mrs T. is going out and I have the house to myself. Now we are settled in the new house I am getting out the oil paints today to work on a harbour landscape. My biscuits and tea bags are placed nearby and the cat is sitting on the chair with an expression of curiosity on its' face.

t 10-40 cable adr adjusted, if low triggers we are down to 30 points for 100 adr, obviously could well get lots more. But i will still look for +20

edit, that is +30 from low of 00-00 nbar, My trigger bar will be 04-00 so + 40 is on the table

yes indeed, sometimes it breaks straight through the 00 and like today we bounced, WILL IT BE RETESTED? Maybe if US release good news it shouold drop but MR Trump and his taxing is not going to plan, so maybe more up. Who cares?

edit, like a politician i never gave a proper answer yaaaaaay

ok another silly newbie question......get your head up azz picture ready........When it comes to trading the Red Flag News.....I've been told that the spreads get really really high, that makes placing Buy / Sell Stops on both sides slightly risky.....due to i think it's called "slippage" and the high spreads......so what i was thinking was would it be better to just use your counter philosophy and enter a trade 5 minutes early, 15 minutes early, 30 min early.......it doesn't really matter how early........just enter the trade early going BOTH WAYS.....that way the Spread doesn't change on you since your already in the trade.....and you won't have to worry about "slippage" .......you will only be down what you have in limbo until the High Impact Red Flag News comes out and "fixes" things for us. Is this way better than placing Buy / Sell Stops? Or does it even make a difference?

1st....ideally you don't want to be in a trade when news happens.
2nd... you can trade news release or after it...
3rd... no stop but you need the bank.
4th... trade what you know...

edit, you might even have a good trade but the spread will close you down, its like a 0-00 on a roulette table

OK.....86'ing the idea totally......I do however have a "billy" note that says something about it's ok sometimes to trade the retrace of a news spike. Thanks again Mr.B!

yes, i was going to say that as an extra, but i did say you can trade the news. Let news announce then get in with retrace if possible,

The point I was trying to make is - Would it be better to buy two tickets so that you can go together somewhere ( rather than buy her a ticket so that she goes alone somewhere) or are you being deliberately obtuse young William

Not a silly question. Rather a well thought out question Cat thinks.
