Oh no at this market I have tight stops. After rate annoncement maybe I take a position trade, but today no.
Good luck I hope you don't have a large drawdown. And I hope my SL doesn't get hit.
I'm now averaged down to 3230 w/ a regular-sized position, and took some $ when closing part of the position. Could move SL to profitable range but I want to let it play out a bit longer. As my position is not over-sized I have some room if price moves against me.

can I ask why you are trading right now? there is little liquidity in the market and no clear direction short term.

please show on any chart the reason to be in a trade right now.
Thanks

Added more longs @ 3243. New average, 3234. SL's moved to 3243.

These longs are a win.

Ticker,
I know you look the fundamentals too, every fiat is phony so nothing has changed or the small temporary disequilibrium will eventually evolve into global QE which will include euro too, and sooner that you might think, the commodity-currencies boom you are expecting have to wait for some time.
Tell me if i am wrong.

that was a terrible place to ENTER short if price has come down several dozen pips to that level like it just did, as most of the time it will bounce or at least stall. wait for the bounce and short the top if you're convinced it will continue. you can have a much tighter SL that way as well.

On thr other hand, if the retrace is failing, and it looks like the north move is resuming, then it's a great place to long. you'll get it figured out if you know what to watch.

doesnt look like it at the moment. the uptrend we were in for the past 20 hours or so has been broken to the downside and now we are just retesting the breakout wall (possible bear flag/pennant formation).

if we re enter the trend up and break 1.3285 as well...you might have a shot to make that money back. If we break 1.3225 to the downside...id close that trade if i was you.

My question to you is...do you use stop loss?...especially when sleeping...

Why not close part of the position now, set a tighter SL, and average back in if we move lower? Cut your losses basically.

Hi Rp,
Can you explain your rationale for going short there??
Thanks
Hidden Bearish Divergence, 20 and 30 EMA (15M TF) turning down and Fractals pointing downward.

Look a attachement if interested. I shorted at 1.3281. Out with 20 pips profit. Could of held it longer but I have learned to not be greedy with this system.

I'm on a 10 pip / day quest testing a new strategy. High leverage / Low risk (If that exists in this game).

After 2 months of testing I'm missing 10 trades to be on track.

Balance should be 12K but I'm only at 6+K. It's amazing how 10 pips a day can be a chalange when highly leverage.

Edit: I should add the start balance $1,015.00

anyone realized that when nasdaq rallies more than dow dollar appears to maintain strength and doesn't loose to Euro so quickly

America needs to move to renewable technology like it or not Middle East and others, that will lead to stronger dollar due to deflation.

S/L 200 pips from my open position...
out of curiousity....why such a large stop loss. i mean lets think about this logically....the average daily range from high to low for the eur/usd is 200pips if we are lucky (with the exception of news filled days). So even if you had a decent win/loss ratio and picked the best entry points....it would be a long time before profits are decent on this particular pair as only one loss sets you back big time. Not only that but you might have around 5 trades a week..if that.

Sidenote: the few traders that I know do something similar to this have at least 2:1 take profit ratio meaning they are willing to wait a long time for a position to complete....and most of them have alot of equity in their account which means they can "afford" to wait
