Over in The Dead Zone, solid options were few and far between. I really didn't want to go with UC, which left GA and CJ. CJ is actually one of my Dark Horse faves on the DZ that I haven't got to lately, simply because of time constraints usually, getting to the screens too late. However, there she was. All set up. The other option, GA, looked good but as of writing hasn't triggered - well, it has triggered but it went the ''wrong'' way, down into Demand... {image} Over at CJ, I was obviously forgiven for my lack of recent attention and hey, ho,...
When I saw CJ initially thought you meant CHF then saw the chart !

My take on that is wait for the break then sell into pivot again.

Hi Everyone, not been around much as the kids are on holls so spending a bit of time with them, discovered yesterday im too old to play football against a sixteen year old and a thirteen year old, thought i was going to have a heart attack
Claudia, just wondering do you use a stop on this sort of trade, or where would you call it a day if it went against you ?

Oh and you should try playing football with a bunch of 18 and 19 year olds!

lol good to spend time with them though.

Ok. No I don't use stops with that sort of trade as I'm here all day usually. If it goes against me I add until I win or take a reasonable loss. Mainly trade cable still and it goes up and down during the day giving plenty opportunities to get out of messes.

Nothing wrong with using stops - problem I guess is that most people either set them too tight or at obvious levels. Then blame broker.

Thanks Claudia, last question i promise lol, ive tried this on demo (adding To it) so say if ive got a short trade because there is major resistance above, if it travels further into the resistance you carry on adding shorts say every 5-10 pips until it turns , have i got that right, also if it keeps going against you, would you just close the trade as a loss or would you sometimes (counter-hedge it) Just asking as the boys have given me a few hours off, and i want to have a play on demo as per Lems idea

Keep asking away I don't mind - there is no perfect answer though.

I don't counter Billy does. You got the idea though.

Thanks Claudia, yeah i thought that, i Totally get it, it sort of depends on the situation, things like how fast its going against you, where the pivots and support or resistance etc etc
