I added new soldiers to my short position at 6440, SL is green still at 6480. See everyone in the US Session.
Very nice, I'm short at 6438. I enjoyed the ride down and up on her. Nice call on 632x by Infinity and yourself.

very nice. I am waiting to see how this 1h behaves (and my other 4h chart which closes in 35m). I've been expecting a bounce around 400 here as there seems to be a questionable tl break up here

Congrats to you and Shilva on your 1yr anniv.! If you've been trading with live money for the year and haven't blown your account, your ahead of most.

I kept a part of your post because I did buy it all the way down and I also sold it, it's all about the entry bro. That's what we try and show day in and day out. I hope our system is showing that!

Keep up that hard work bro! I want to see you on your 2 year anniv and hear that you've double your account 5x since your 1 year.
Thank You my friend......you the man!

Thanks Captain

Yes never had the sense or saw the point in holding all the way down, but on this roller coaster its just as much fun to ride that slippery slide and then get your ticket for the lift back up. I do miss the 350 pips ATR tho... and the 90 pip m15's! Those speedy gonzales moves.

I have to confess to having experienced the lows of blowing 2months gains of £25k tho in January and modified my approach since then. You guys have been a fabulous help. Thank you again for all your help (including Infinity and all these clever fortune tellers).

Thanks bro! glad to hear you got some nice pippage on it...

I'm back on the long bus though my latest additions got stopped out at be... I am still in from 6320 and holding based on the h4 close... I already booked 100 pips and covered on this...

my h1 also seemed to support the long a few moments ago but not looking so rosy now...

The problem which I have with the h4 however is that it stopped right at the old tl....

I hope some got a piece of this short entry. I've booked some nice pippage on it. I've not taken a long position yet, but I'm eyeballing one.

I got it but you got me by 2 pips. I put 80 in the bank so far. I did try a small long earlier that got me for a few pips.

I wanted 6359 for a long entry and missed it, I saw it for a second, set my order and it didn't come back. I'm still holding my shorts that I started at 6550, we might still see further movement south.

At 4yrs old, I'd say he brings in over 100 pips per week for me.
