wise words, kind of poetry smell;-)...thx!

i have a question now, my favorite tactic is to open a hedge and when a side hits TP i tend to wait lets say 5 minutes before i fill the missing part of the hedge.

but sometimes the market runs away in a hurry and is 10-20 pips higher. ok i will then open the missing part, but the loss on paper widens.

can we do something against? or is it just a part to accept?

thx.

Yes I like to wait once a tp is hit, there will always be risk and yes have to accept that, however we now have the tools to trade yourself back into profit or lessen the loss, remember we do all our work after the trade is placed not before ....

waveskie, i regognized you showed us today different entry tactics, pending channel and orders only in one direction.

so there are many ways of how we could play/open this...it reminds me on chess, which i played a lot in early times.
