trying to understand what you mean. I could move down to micro lots, but a loss is still a loss. no matter the lot size.

or do you mean use small lot to test, and a regular lot to recuperate my loss?

it sounded like you were afraid of getting in the trade because you missed the prime entry. So I was thinking you just trade smaller lot sizes to have the larger SL equal to your typical risk, or less if you wanted. It would require a good believe that price would make a significant move south though.

you quoted yourself referring to those charts and then you want to know whether to sell yen?

it doesn't sound like they're working for you very well. try a normal looking chart with one pair on it maybe...

you're right. Clear double top. it couldn't be more apparent. fear sets in. forex is wild at least to me. even when I think my analysis is dead on, sometimes the pair will do something that goes beyond all logic. i don't like to lose money. alot of time when I take a position i start to freak when i'm 5 pips negative.

But I still make my pips ok. I just don't go for huge moves for 200+ pips.

where are your TPs on the EUR short? Mine is at 1.3085 but I think more money can be made without a fixed TP on this trade.

Mine's at 3187, I was looking for it to retreat to the 200 EMA on the 15 min chart similar to the cable's move...but it's not cooperating at the moment!
