yeah forex has been very strange lately, I think we should trade what we don't think it will go. If I have done that I will be collecting a lot of green pips

what did i say when you think is up it is down when you think it is down it is up...this is my new indicator.
but careful of fake breakout

Turveyd, I may not be a billionaire right now in cash, but maybe in kind, including my methods and techniques. No, you reall don't need big enough capital to trade major swings. How? 1) I try to build positions with very small lots, that gives me chance of playing between the ranges and not the points. If it is 1.5000 for you, maybe it is 1.4000 to 1.6000 for me with 1.5000 average. 2) Accept the fact when market is not going your way. But one has to earmark the limits when to temporarily get out and re-enter.

Regarding the second part of your...
Don't worry what I lack in Cash which trust me is a MAJOR Issue I make up for with my system and trading experience, but running on a dead line of 2 - 3 Months to get to a stage of taking a wage from this.

So excuse my madness.

EJ pulled back to 2hour SMA perfectly, this is causing some support, hmmmmm tricky!! still holding though

The question is, will it Downtrend and sell all night or just go back to chopping around.


Could do with GBPUSD to show about more willing to profit take to really get this party started though.

G'day folks. Hope all is well.

Anybody curious on my whereabouts can know that in spite of today's bullrun, I'm holding on to my short from 1.3269 which I entered on April 1st.

To those who say it's crazy, well, probably. We'll see about that when the trade is closed. Before judging, keep it in the context of a trade done on the weekly chart.

whats funny is that last spike up to 3380 area right before asia....i thought....hmmmm....maybe they make one last drive higher before selling it.

should have listened and at least closed my longs there.

now short from 3340 short term target of 3300 where buying may resume or taking us back to 32xx area

I would like to know what is your take on s/ls? I dont trade off weekly charts very often. Use H4 most commonly- anything lower not my cup of tea, I use stops ranging from 50 pips to 300 pips.

But generally I close the trade if it goes against me by 200 pips. I am wondering what kind of stops other longer term traders use.

Thanks in advance

+25Pips, I went in A LOT OF Lots though x's 3 what I'm supposed to so made back 1/2 of my last loss.

I'm weird and just like some people trade without a S/L, I trade without a T/P.

So the idea is to eventually bring the S/L in the profit zone. This means that eventually, it's always my S/L that gets hit. Always.

The short answer to your question is that my current S/L is at 1.3578 which not coincidentally, is last week's high. So I would be at a loss if it was hit right now but can we have a sudden spike north of some 255 pips? Well, everything is possible I suppose.
