Where do you usually put the SL? You set it when a trade is open or do you close the trade manually on wrong direction?

Under normal conditions I get my SL to break even within seconds, that's just my way, doesn't fit with the majority of traders but that's just my style of trading.

I'm equally out in seconds, no hesitation
Thankfully it's not very often, my entries are infinitely better than they were 5 years ago

Does it make sense to trade only one direction when a trend on higher time frame is established?

depends on the timeframe you are trading... intraday trading there is plenty of range to trade in either direction normally

This is still a bit of a weak spot for me.....my entries sometimes go against me 10 or 20 but then swing back, but then when they don't you get into the age old problem of letting loosers run!! So.....about 5 years should sort it then Steve eh??
