Any one made any trades recently? or the market too volatile and flat?
but price seems to be finding support around 1.4665, may be good news for the euro bulls in this thread...

i shorted yesterday at 1.4775 & 1.4805, but was taken out at 9am coz I had a 50 pips trailing stop on it, then it fell another 100 or so pips afterwards, comes to show a 50 pips TSL is useless in today's volatility
but price seems to be finding support around 1.4665, may be good news for the euro bulls in this thread...

However, as to your question about this thread updating, I think you could have it wrong. They aren't updating as much because it's Labor Day in the U.S.
Also, and more importantly, they are probably out enjoying themselves. It is my understanding that Jacko and his minions don't sit and stare at the screens either. It's about placing your trade, and walking away. Enjoy your life, trading is NOT thrilling.
And besides, the farther you run from forums, (in general) the better you will do. (in general.)
Let me offer this small piece of advice: "Trade to live, not live to trade."
Clockwork
I am in Great Britain and was at work all day while you where all out enjoying yourselves.
Forgot all about Labour day (holiday on "labour" day, whats that all about?).
Agreed on forums. I am sticking with Jacko's. But would also recommend Trader 888's posts. Very revealing. Dosent seem to post anymore though.
Regards,
Pete

yeah, looks like it's not going to hold this time, for the bulls, buy again around 1.4570, for the bears, sell the rallies...
hi Petea1uk, welcome! I think the reason why there aren't much discussion re: Jacko's method, is because the method's been fully documented already, and the pdf document has all you need to know about it, and doesn't need much explaination, so some way or another, this is slowly turning into a eur/usd thread instead...
thanks for your thoughts. I ve demo'ed Jakos AH method the other day and it worked a treat. Took back 50pips and continued for another 144 and counting!
This could get interesting.......very interesting

for the newbies, I'm sure it's been said enough times, if you couldn't be bothered reading through the first few pages of the thread, don't expect someone to feed you all the good stuff while you lay back and do nothing, you're lucky enough to have such a good collection of information, what else can you ask for?
if you find AH interesting, then I'm sure you'll find a whole lot more interesting stuff around in Jacko's thread...

Dont worry. I am up to about page...... 30 I think! Working my way (slowly).
I ve read and followed other traders who have employed a simlar system put didnt "Listen and Learn".
From the very first page of this thread It dawned on me that there is no scientific formula to forex. It never repeats itself. It constantly changes. The best we can do is "follow that trend" and look at the environment the market is in and where it suggests it maybe going.
Sounds simple enough. So its about time I started getting it right

Pete

haha.. hi Pete, sorry, I stopped noticing you were a new poster too, I wasn't directing that comment at you at all... 
I sort of directed it at the one who left an email address and was so lazy enough and expected someone to send the free information to their email address instead of trying to easily locate the info themselve... which I thought was quite rude, and disrespectful somehow, maybe i was too sensative..
