One second ago it hit 1.5949. It now dropped to 1.5948. My stop loss 1.5960 may be hit soon after the market opens
Took a second for me to see your SL...
Your shorting?!?!?
All I can say is good luck.

Thanks for your kind words! I was stupid to set up a sell limit at 1.5900 with stop loss 1.5950. It was triggered, then I moved my SL to 1.5960. My broker's spread is 2 pips.

donīt worry, markets high is 1,5949... but think of the spread of your broker!

I know I was stupid 60 pips loss will be 2.4% of my equity. Is it fortunate or unfortunate?

Short term (Today/Tomorrow morning) you might be alright. After that???
Friday US session closed 10 pips from the high. That seems very strong compared to other Friday US session closes. Only time will tell...

I find it hard to believe you are up 989 pips at 1.5941. that would mean you bought euro on July 3 at 1.4944. I have been looking at my charts I don't see it making a low of that on July 3rd.

He could have had multiple entries and/or exits since July 3rd for a total count of 989 pips. I do this all the time. Just trying to help.

you are a retail trader so market is closed to you and the platform you are using

the forex market is open to banks 24/7/365 why else do you think there are gaps sunday open at 4pm

again if you guys do not know what you are talking about then do some research before you post.
Also keep in mind that not all brokers open back up at the same time on Sunday

Lets do some math...

Currently I am long EUR/USD since July 3rd.
Entry points as they occurred.
Date Price Note Current pips @ 1.59433
7/03/2008 1.5700 1 293.3
7/07/2008 1.5650 2 243.3
7/07/2008 1.5750 193.3
7/10/2008 1.5800 143.3
7/11/2008 1.5850 93.3
7/11/2008 1.5900 43.3
7/13/2008 1.5950 -6.7

Total pips at 1.5932 = 1003.1
Locked pips SL at 1.5850 = 450
I'm not counting the 0.9 pip on my Saturday trade.

Nice trading FXG! That's kind of how I trade. I choked 300 plus pips out of USD/CAD when the total range of the move was just uner 200 pips. It felt great. That was one of my finer moments in my short trading career. Now, please dont ask me about some of my bonehead performances. They are just too painful to re-live.

Stop loss shoud be hit only by real(normal) market pips(1or 2) not by sudden wide or 10 pips apread


but it seems no body talk and tell broker

Hey guys,

getting ready for an exciting week, eurusd seems to open close at lasts weeks high, lets see if the gloom and doom is starting for a another weakness in the dollar. I see a lot of potential north of 1.60, but we got to cross this important level, else we are heading the other direction. Current level ist 1.5970 getting really close...
Best regards
Paul
