Yes. I'm thinking that the news at UK midday may well do the job for you, but who knows? It could go the other way. I see Alorente on the cable update thread is thinking it will go north to 1.3038. That may be eventually however. The news might well take it down first. Sitting on my hands for the moment.
Thanks for your help, warmth and straight talking Heather.

No one knows for sure where it will go in a given time, we just have to make our own decisions! As you know, I'll never move a SL and if the PA is going to behave this way, I'll wait it out until things calm down. With the on going saga between Boris and Barnier, anything can happen at any moment so I don't want to hold a losing trade!! Waiting is free

This was a 'shoot for the hip' trade and I never got the chance to even get the SL to BE. I tried to make a screenshot but the platform froze for a few seconds and when it came back, the PA was almost at TP so I tried to take the screenshot.....and it froze again.

So...FWIW...here's the trade...sorry it's completed.

Nice trade RJ.
I was in GJ trade earlier and stop hit by 1 pip before sell off. Very annoying when stops targeted.

Your trade order needs to be in the right place at the right time.

Well done on catching that drop!

Wonder what was actually expected from BoE...

It's a PITA when that happens, for sure. That's the main reason that I set my SL's pretty wide when I trade. I've had messages before about my R:R being all out of whack, which it may seem to be on the face of it. But I set my SL where it's very unlikely to get hit unless there is a huge spike or something like that. If that happens, it will hurt, but it won't put the account in danger and I should be able to recover in a few days or a week. But, I will never sit here and watch my SL get slowly eaten by the PA. I will exit when I realise that I have made a mistake. So I may set the SL at -50, but if I am wrong and I have to pull the pin, I'll do it long, long before the SL comes into play.

Lot's of ways to skin the cat of course, this is my way of doing it!!

Thanks. Who knows what they were expecting of the BOE....certainly not bottom feeders like us!! I saw GU and my 2 GBP crosses all looking like they were going to drop any second, so I got into it and set the SL immediately. A moment later the platform froze, so I was lucky and it's not really trading....it was a gamble and with hindsight, I shouldn't have done it. Lucky that I got away with it...this time!

looks like your platform needs some maintenance immediately..freezing is a big problem if you had not set the stop and the trade went the other way..I have no freeze lately on my platform . I'm using a different server, maybe it's due to the server, I don't know

Selling EA now. The target is the low of yesterday, and also today during the Tokyo session.

Yep, for sure. I need to investigate this thoroughly this weekend and get to the bottom of this issue. It happened today and also last week (or the week before, I forget) and that's twice too often.
