I seem to have a habit of taking a losing trade (or two) before coming good. I feel like it is getting closer all the time.

The 400 trade charts are primarily for taking trades in my SB account, hence i need 5 point stops and min 10 point targets (that's 20 tick and 40 tick respectively), but of course the 133 is where it's at. I didn't take any live trades today.

My plan was to get used to a little larger position sizes using Sb's yet, before switching to contracts, but it's so much more difficult with a 1 point spread. I keep telling myself to simply take the plunge)

since your good controlling risk even if you lost 20 ticks in 1 day(which you haven't in a very long time) its only $100

just got my charts on and running after a long hiatus, 133 was MOVING. I know I could probably figure it out, but quicker to ask--where is the setting to keep chart from moving up and down as the bars are forming. thanks

Looking at the above, it's obvious that the full answer to Thomi's question from last night is that it depends on the way PA is printing at the time. I simply felt that it had further to fall and thus look for that last little 'hiccup' in the trend for a retest... In this instance, it was a perfect tap and go...

If more confirmation required there is a nice pin bar in yours CG, quite scary trading limit orders into hiccups, but if they work more often than not...

The way i see that, is stoploss just above the hiccup, so good risk:reward.... expect a reaction there as a minimum to remove risk... taking the trade any lower and you have removed that safety net.
