this was the 2.time a got stopped out cause of placing the SL to b/e after price run 20-25 pips in profit.

After not reaching tp 30 cause of the 3 pips spread, i changed the sl to entry-point.

the rule "never let a winning trade turn into a loosing trade" in my mind.
was that to early?
is there something i should learn from this trade?

Thats what happening to me bro, I am keep hitting Trailing Stops which i set to 15 .. not sure what to do about it ... if I increase it then I loose more and if i reduce it then i get out soon

Any idea why we got this?
I may sound an idiot but I have to ask. There was CBI news at 11GMT but it came out -ve, shouldn’t GBP have weakened against the dollar??? My broker is +1GMT so 12 GMT means 11 GMT.

morning all glad a lot of you made money i broke my own rules last night and paid for it i was in profit by 15 and moved stop to breakeven and went to bed. that was a no no. there is no trailing stops in this. what i should have done is move stop to 1 pip below on that candle that put me in profit giving me a stop at 9839 or just leaving my stop at 9833 when i say dont let a profitable trade turn into a loser is if you are at the computer and price goes up to 28 pips and you let it go to -30

i think the way i am going to do this is when i put trade on set stop and target and go to bed so as not to mess with it the numbers are good enough to have losers since the winners out weigh them

Hi all,
this mornig I was able to get + 10 pips on that gbpusd signal. If I had keept the SL loss at the original point I could get the + 30. But I tryed the trailing stop and it was hit (I have to learn more about this ...)
Anyway, another positive result for the system to write on my weekly Mint journal!
I will wait the next bus. It seems that for my broker aud/jpy and cad/jpy both can finish the daily journey above the RSI 50 ... we'll see.
See you soon

Download Skype. You can talk away. It's free, too.

You should have speaker and mic jacks on the back of your computer.
