{quote} yes, If High was xxx.1 i would long at xxx If Low was xxx.2 i would short at xxx it isnt mathematically correct but this is how i trade my method. With a High Break we could sometimes be whole point out as you mentioned xxx.9 for example,,, enter at xxx
Thanks Billy
Super clear explanation

I did the same. I entered a retrace trade as well as my original break. I have doubled up my bet on cable original break tonight. Not my typical strategy with Cable.

G'day, folks. Hope all's good on the last Friday of the month.

Jumped on the DAX-Monster's tail as usual this morning. WZ trade back into the body and cleared the +5% and ultimately I took +9% out of it.

DAX 06:00 - 08:00 (Done WZ +5% (+9%))

Once again, the companion-piece in this theatre of cash, the F40, banged home the profit with zero effort on both the 04:00 - 08:00 and the 07:00 - 08:00 variant. However, also once again, I just can't get on both it and the DAX at the same time, both simply move too fast. Need to find a solution to that.

Be careful running 2 trades at once. UNLESS you have the bank

Did AU hit the +5 on that twitch North? Looks like it may have just failed on the spread factor.

It has just done the biz on a WZ move back inside.

GU just broke low.

Billy, Lem, Claudia, Mr T ...anyone else who would like to comment..........how do feel about trading on the last day of the month?
Doesn't usually bother me, though combining it with a Friday means I'd be more inclined to limit my activity.

I may not do much outside of the DAX and the other 04:00 options.

I don't like Friday's (certainly afternoons) at the best of times (I may have mentioned that once or twice before ).

I don't have the proper bankroll but I am still practicing and learning and I'll just chalk any of these small losses up as a very cheap learning experience from a very skilled instructor. It's hard for me to learn with "fake chips"

I know it's early for you guys to post this stuff. I've never shared before........but this is what i'm listening to at the moment while trading. There are some good songs on this track.

EDIT: This was a track from youtube that had about 50 songs on it.....very good songs. This was the first song and it only copied this song with the link. I guess im not smart enough to copy and paste. Enjoy this song at least...one of my favorites.

Daily High we don't know what it will be?
The adr should make a High at 13158 OR more, that is an adr of 90 (5 day)

edit, dont forget the +20

You could have locked up those 10 pips from the extra bet and just kept the original trade in limbo until next week......or you could have put some sort of BE or trailing stop (billy wouldn't) on that 2nd trade also if you wanted. You want to try to lock up those extra pips on the 2nd trade if at all possible, then you still have the OG trade in limbo.....no harm no foul. At this point you can just put in another trade to put that extra lot in limbo also.

Although it's best to wait for the Dean himself to answer this one. That was just my opinion

Hi BO, thanks for your input, what happend was I I I I screwed up on the break long which should have been 2x the low break , as you rightly say, my orders are default as last trade = derrrr, my fault , but as we know screw up and then get screwed trying to fix it,
