{quote}So I was looking at the last closed h4 EJ candle and it didn't look great for longs. If it signals down on m30 I will take it out for a small loss until that candle is invalidated, otherwise I will leave it in. {image}
I took out the EJ as I said I would once it signalled the other way for -7 pips then got called away, but I'm glad I did or I would have just come back to see my full stop loss hit.

I think my GU M30 signalled to go in not long after you took yours out. I don't usually like going against your trades, so we will see.
At least you're not selling GU or I would have taken my buy out

You know I don't like to trade towards the DP when it's under 20 pips away from my entry. H4 ppa sway my thinking and I went long. When I trade TMS I don't bother much with the DP, strange you may say but perhaps I have 2 different set of mind

I haven't looked at GA or EA for quite a while. I look at 8 currency pairs and find thats enough for me.
