Navin tell me you are not serious. Man you need some help my friend. Get away from it for a bit take a break. You are making terrible decisions. Not trying to be mean but honestly its the truth.

Im just shaking my head right now thinking about it. Walk away
I would have to agree on this!!! Navin, you need to quit taking these damn hedges. Losses are a part of this, it's nothing personal, it's just trading.

same here! im long anyway looking to 4785 area, in decent profit stop...
Excellent trade!! I went long at 4654 on the retest of the broken channel.. I closed a bit early at 4755 but I just wanted 100 pips anyway because the position was heavy.. I am now watching how the h1 50sma and 62ema reacts..

That was a nice ride wasn't bro! I'm already in on the short at 4800 off the 62ema. I did enter early, but I could afford to with the bonus round I'm playing in today.

hedging when used with no plan, is just an emotional response to the uncertainty of risk, if u cant accept risk u shouldnt be trading,

Hey!! Don't blame me if your trade doesn't work out. I'm not the only one that plays the 1h 62ema. I am short myself from 4800 because I do trust it. We did just have a hell of a run up and when she moves that fast one way, she will usually go the other way just as fast. Other factors we have in our favor for this going back down: DOW is negative, Lunch time in the US so profit taking usually occurs. We'll see how she pans out. I wish everyone the best of luck with their trades.

Totally agree - its dithering and its a rabbit trapped in car headlamps

I hedged my GBP in the bank at 2.04 using short selling on spreadbet platform when I knew I would be moving to US - but otherwise, its perpetuating a loss and sapping of one's morale

best just take the loss, get it over with, and start again

Very possible, I will let price action lead the way and tell me to get the hell out. I do like how the last 15m candle closed. If I wasn't already in the short, I would be either getting in now, or looking for the current working 15m candle to work up half the wick and then go short with tight SL. Trade what you see though.

np, i am one a few americans left that thinks you should take responsibility for your own actions

however, under the current USA conditions - if it goes bad... maybe i should try to get a bailout from taxpayers money
