so 2 trades both stopped at BE and another where I was stopped at +3 pips. The other 2 were at +10 at one point before stopping me out at BE. the H1 and H4 look bullish. The M15 looks like it could drop at any moment, lol. so now I will just apply Ata's strategy and just keep it simple for the rest of the day. H1 has failed (until now) to close above 49 and still below LO to LO line but above the 7. So I am waiting for a close above the LO to LO line to buy dips or a close below the 7 and sell pull backs. Lets see how that works. This time however,...
Would move SL too BE+5 when passing 10 pips soo you get someting back for the troubble....Because if retrace back too BE+5 it will probebly go back too BE also...

{quote} I know how u feel mate....im a newbie here, as of Friday. I had managed to make $2750 in 10 days (double my initial deposit). Not much of a strategy, other than using EMAs, bollinger bands and PSAR. Was over the bl00dy moon!! Found this website friday morning and have been trying to follow whats going on from all the pointers / advice etc. Messed my head right up, and lost $1200 since Friday morning. Now im too scared to go in, come out, do anything i was doing before! haha! Nightmare!
Bro. If you're a follower here, then I will advise you to find one renowned trader whose game you're comfortable with and follow him ALONE. BLOCK ALL OTHER CHARTS. you only check that person's own. "Too many hands spoil the soup", they say.

Or you just come to drop your opinion and walk.

Reduce your lotsize. In fact go to the lowest lotsize to get ur confidence back.

{quote} Although I have a sell limit at 1.1400 (just for the sake of it), I don't think we'll get there today. There's a rising wedge on the 15mins with the top of the wedge around 1.1370. If I get that figure I short it.
i would rather take trades depending on price behavior.
i am pretty much done with longs though.

been burned so many times doing that only to see it tag me then continue in the direction of my trade so I starting doing 1/2 back in May. Its the 'same' pips if i get stopped at a full +5 or 1/2 at +10 but I found that if i gave it more room to retrace, I would net 20-30 pips. Just hasn't worked out today.

if we get close to 13500 again here soon, I will try a buy. Hoping for one of those quick spikes down then back up...we shall see.

{quote} you have a mindset of a successful trader. financial markets, as a small part of the universal ecosystem, are in constant change and ever evolving. those who are sensitive and adaptive to the new conditions, survive. the rest will come and go. i am still holding a short term bullish sentiment but we are approaching to a point where we may see a sharp movement.
Thank you, we just try to scavenge whatever we can from the markets and ditching ego aside is the first step to doing this.

Anyway trade safe guys. Volume about to die down, current M5 swing high my broker has it on the 1.1363 resistance on the dot. I won't be buying the next dip - wanna see a swing above it first.

That's the great thing about fx is that you can reduce risk. Now some new traders decide they want to learn to trade in the futures market because centralised exchanges blah blah fishpaste. Guess what happenz? They get round house bitchslapped lol.

I`m short from 1.1352. First of all because of the spikey tops on 30m, secondly because of the nagativity shown in the OBV and MFI indicators, especially in the higher time frames, thirdly because pa closed below the 49 lwma on1h in London, fourthly because of the positive US ISM data and fifthly because the eur/usd is in a clearly defined longterm downward trend and, last but not least, because the greatest fundamental negatives in the EU - Italy, Brexit, uncertainty about the UK government - have not gone away. I`m also looking for 1.13 as a target, not today but in the near future.

Depends on your style. If you're a day trader, follow ATa. If a scalper, follow engweije.
If a swinger, search around or go find Nial Fuller

Short 1.1350. I believe a lower high for the day has been reached at 1.36x area. Waited all day but couldn't get a good one in. I'm off for about 2 hours. Let's see how low this goes.

read a book by Robert Dalton or watch his videos on youtube (probably easier as the book can be heavy going). A guy called steidlemeyer also wrote a book. Both are good sources of information.
