{quote} We may already have gotten it today if the market wants to make another good shove towards 1.26. Those GDP numbers left a tasty gap(I fell asleep as usually happens at the worst possible times); but the other pairs definitely don't look ripe yet so we'll see. I have a bad feeling that you're right and I'm going to have to start scaling out of my longs with major losses.
Ouch dude...you're stacked pretty deep and coming into a mostly Good Friday Holiday...Yanks aren't listed, but I'm tending to believe that they are closed tomorrow too...

There's typically 2 things that happen on Bank Holidays...

1. Market is Completely Flat - Weekend hold and GAP?????????
2. Market moves Wildly, direction be damned.

For these 2 reasons, I simply sit em out...

TK might offer a little reprieve, but in all honesty, I don't envy your situation....and I'd be lying if I said I haven't seen an account or 2 go under these same circumstances.

Feeling your pain, brother.

Tending to agree with ya on a little north side loving...but I am out until NY Monday...if I survive another weekend.


My big investments this weekend look like this...

OP...forgive the digression...

My local grocer has a points system...you buy select items, you get points.
Like airmiles, but store credit...

On Saturday, they are offering 20x points for 1 day only and 1-time purchase - No leaving and coming back!
My special points this week, cases of Coke - Cost with deposit and taxes, $5(ish), points on this - 2000...

Meaning, for every case of Coke I get, I get 40, 000 points which is $40 in store credit.

I am looking to buy 100 cases of Coke and have free groceries for the rest of the year!
400,000 points - $4000 store credit for about $500...

Will sell those motherfuckers in the parkinglot for $2 a case because I ain't gunna try jam all that into the Benz.

Oh; there isn't much pain(today gave me some time to adjust to the situation and I'm more than accustomed to seeing red). But it's definitely a fucked up situation at the moment . I went deep and it dun me dirty.

I took just as large of a drawdown on the NZD GDP two weeks ago(against the yen no less) and pulled through. I'm not concerned with how I'll recover... Just disappointed in the time it may take.

Hey...
(Again...apologies to the OP)

Was huge thanks to your comments that I wrote in a No Nedge version of my EAs...
It was a great observation and now they manage to maintain a fairly reasonable DD while playing to a Market Homeostatic Medium...

Along with this...not sure anybody really pays attention to charts posted, but you may have seen that on the charts I post, I have another EA GridMeOut...(PRIVATE)

Nailing any single position is tough...I've gotten lucky a lot...but at the same time, when I take a trade, being fairly confident, will keep the robot running. It only triggers after I have my first play in trade. Meaning...it doesn't wake up until it hears the alarm clock of a first trade taken...now, this will happen if you set a pending position and it gets taken...EA wakes up and will look for my predetermined profit area and will also look to GRID out a position.

No Standard Grid type thing...I am all about market dynamics...when it sees a minimum grid place combined with a minimum delay and TRIGGER, will enter in another trade...

Posted examples ->HERE & HERE

I was going to release a public version of this, but kind of afraid of how it will be used.
Like all tools, only good in the hands of those that know what and how they will work.

Given your keen eye and propensity for cost averaging...you think this be a good release for the Factory?
Interested in lending a brother a little more eye?

Sounds promising. I'll check it out. Depending on how it works; it may save me a lot of work. (I manually enter 99% of my trades with MT4 mobile and I've lost a lot of money from the time it takes me to do so)

It's very difficult to trade properly when I can't just 1-click without it telling me that I'm not allowed to hedge on my accounts unless I use pendings. I don't want to hedge... I want to close my fucking open positions!

"C"... C is the letter of the day! "C" stands for : consolidation.

Aka God: guys, it's Easter weekend .just pin it to 1.23 and throw in some brownian motion...

Euro is rebounding. Now let's just see if USD weakens. I don't think it's quite ready yet but we'll see.

My intention is to just take the hit and hustle that brownian motion to finish the month above BE and in a proper position. The margin call should be coming this afternoon and the odds of us rebounding all the way to 1.24 by then are slim.

I always do much better as an early bird with holiday churn than I do with being the 2nd mouse.
