Got two more short positions in at around the 1.1840's. Life is good! If it tests the 1.1860's I'll try to get a couple more in. We'll see...

I usually only show daily charts but for position I'll do 1 hour and even less.

Dow is at a new time high. Yea!

Whoever is buying EUR here @1.1820s has the balls of steel to me. I agree on the bullish momentum and lack of bear strength but how can anyone put a decent stop now for a long trade? 1.1780?1.1757? 1.1710? Where to put the stop?
How about no stop? It may sound crazy but for the last 2 months, I have learned my lesson to not put a stop when I long EU. even when it is a wrong trade, it will turn out to be a winning trade within a day or two. I know a lot of people will not like this.

Except for scalps, I quit doing stops years ago. My broker, Forex.com, if I hit my margin, they will only take out enough pips--usually just one--in order to maintain my margin requirements. I take the hit then just replace it when I have the cushion with a higher PA point. It's my acceptance that I can never predict the market.

I know for some what I'm doing is insane. All I can say is that the market will eventually go my way. Pretty lame huh?

I only keep my long knowing that this pair is in a bullish momentum. but I use stops when I am short, I don't keep shorts when I am sleeping. I know this may sound insane. But that is exactly what is going on with this pair. Like what they say, every dip is a chance to Buy. If everyone is seeing this to go 1.19, 1.20 or even 1.24, why would I close my long for a 50 pip retrace and then Buy it again at about the same price? If I see a trend reversal, then that's the time to close my Long. I guess that's the way it is for the time being, considering what is going on in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. I don't do this for any other pair though.

Yanitsa, I don't recommend my strategy for anyone. It takes some gahongas to follow through. What I can say is this year alone, I've increased my profit up to 87%. It will be interesting what it will be when I unload all my positions. Right now year-to-date I'm at 66% profit. My all time negative profit is in the 40's percent wise. That's when I used stops. Use stops to your hearts content. As for me, I'd rather get margined out and reset at a better position than use stops.

Let me repeat, this strategy is not for everyone.

Oh the US FED... :

Mester is mild hawk per: http://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx...4EG/index.html

I think it is crazy SHORTING yet but... I'm expecting to see messages about people shorting with the recent high as stop right about now.

I use longer term and SELL STOPS and prefer to have it going my way on the daily first.

What do you mean shorting? That only the euro should be strong? That doesn't make much sense. If I'm shorting the euro, I'm going long on the dollar. Everybody shorts when the buy a position. Everybody goes long when you buy a position.

Stress is stress. When I stop out of a position only to see that the market goes my way again, to me that's stress. I view stops as high risk until you're 'in the money'. When I'm a hundred pips or so in my favor, then I'll put in a profit stop so I won't lose anything.

Everyone has to handle their own stress in what works for them.

Taigen. I agree. I can't remember how many times I get frustrated everytime I closed my long EU and added Shorts, and then........well you know what happened to EU.
