{quote} So, what happened to previous EUR/AUD trades? Did you cut loses? How big was the damage?

@Gringo,
My question was about your last EUR/AUD post on April 8 https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...9#post15649009
You had over 20 buy trades in a loss and price was at around 1.66. Since then you never mentioned this trade again.
Price revisited 1.66 level in couple next days, but it never came back near 1.67618, so it was not possible to close those trades with profit.
But never mind, if you say you closed them in profit, let it be

I noticed that a few people here have already tried this strategy with prop firms. I tried it myself today and yesterday with FTMO, and it actually seems safer than it looks. Is there anyone here who still uses this strategy with prop firms? I realize that a regular account with a broker like IC Markets with 1:500 leverage would be better...

zuko, So your question today was based on a Link that YOU posted to a todays Forum Message above which by the way, 2 people followed that Link to the above Message and you failed to apologize to either person for wasting their time today AND now you try and revise your Message with another question from days back, sorry my man I only reply to present questions. BUT I have a question for YOU - when are you going to screenprint your Trades or do YOU just ask ME questions and not others within this Public Forum ??? Do you actually Trade or just ask...
This was already second time I asked this question since first time you ignored it.
And now, why are you getting mad and trying to offend me? Who the fuck do you think you are???
Instead of answering to my question, you choosed to start a drama. It's a red flag. Very simple.

For those who claim EMA is all you need: I've upgraded that logic.
'Logic over color. Uncertainty is the only certainty.'
I use EMA to counter the EMA.
My rule: Buy when the EMA ribbon is Red, provided the Bold Anchor line above it is Aqua.
Colors are just paint; logic is the engine
Don't trade the color.
Trade the stretch.
Reality doesn't care about your indicator settings

{quote} Appologize for what? Anybody who is following this thread and following your posts should know the context and understand to which trades I am reffereing to.

On the one hand, you have to recognize that Gringo is one of the few who consistently posts content.
On the other hand, he says contradictory things; he wins big here and there, but he doesn’t talk about the bad trades anymore.
But that’s how 99% of the posters here on FF act ;-)
Here’s how I see it with Gringo: certain things he says or does make sense, and I pick out those gems and maybe make something of them.
All in all, he’s helped me more than he’s hurt me, and that’s already something.
Maybe you should post more trades too, so you have more authority to participate in the discussion?
trading is like dancing, don't think and just listen to the music!
