Morning guys and gals!
Took a short on EG - FAILED
Took a short on DAX - FAILED
Took a short on GU - currently up a few - feel like I missed by entry by 1 pip/point/line on my monitor
@billy @claudia @other gurus, what spread are you getting on GU?
Thanks and may the PIP GODS be with you all!
PS funny story I read this morning: SWEDEN: In October 2016 goats / lamb were found brutally killed in a local park. Reports now that all the animals had sperm in their anuses.
used to be undecided but nowadays can't make my mind up

Took 9 on the GU trade, should have been 10 but like I said I was late and I'm the sort of idiot who struggles to control his emotions
Thanks Billy for the inspiration....
Just told neighbour and his cat about the goat story....

I feel like my posts are getting a bit boring because it's always the same, but I guess that's trading. I feel so lucky to have found this thread.

  1. EURGBP FB +6.5 pips (-13.5+13.6+6.4)
    Shorted at FB low. Countered at FB mid. Closed sell and added a buy at FB high. Aimed for a little more than 5 pips based on fibs.

EURGBP M5

e/J broke 04-00 High for +10+ ...
A/U high broke then retraced, range 9, it could go either way, too narrow a range but tradeable, but not by me.

Nice trading, are you manually working out the mid point?
Interestingly it looks like I went short at a similar time......closed it for -1.1...
What stop loss are you using? Are you using Billy's method of 'keeping the losing trade in limbo'?
Cheers

Can I ask why you favor the Low rather than the High?

it is mainly human emotion, we prefer to see people/things fall.
I would of gone long if it happened following a low fail......

Indeed, apologies Billy
I'm off to read a book .....'How We Became So Self-Obsessed and What It's Doing to Us'
Have fun everybody, if anybody can recommend a broker with GU spread 0.5 or less let us know......I know folk say it's not about the spread and yes the likes of 'IG' are 'reliable' but I can't help feeling I'm being robbed.....
Ciao

i closed my short on the retrace. I am compounding off the low, trade No1. different rules apply.
But the 2 points i made i might just wack a short in just below the High. If it fails it fails....
