It's all about money management bro! You can set your position so that 100 pips equals 1 % of your account... you must decide how much you are willing to risk on a single trade...

It's about the money management bro. I'm in the trade with normal amount at risk, should I lose, then I lose and move onto the next trade.

I lost my internet connection a few hours ago.. My position is also in shit atm but I took it based on higher timeframes again so it may take a while to play out... This one may end up being a loser but I'll give it a bit more time...
We're on the same bus bro! It's all good though. We have some nice PA and prior PA supporting our position.

Does anyone else think the 62 may act as resistance for a bounce back south?

Not what you may want, but it is in line with the big picture on the daily
