Yes, July and August are the least preforming months using this system, but like you say, even with a bad "33%" month you still end in profit.

Glad to see others trading this way.

Good idea with the EA, I personally dont use them as I like to watch and enter manually...just in case.

Happy trades and a good weekend to ya.
Can I have ur EA Bro....How is it???

I was going to try and tick my way to couple more bucks but it looks like we might be dead for the week. I'll keep watching for a bit.

Thank for the tip, the challenge is that I'm in the negative about 30pips, my tp is 1.6390, do you think it will get there?

woops, you didn't mention that little detail earlier lol. thought you're holding from a higher position. I'm not so sure about reaching 6380 level today tbh.
If you can't handle the large drawdown, just cut your loss. If you can, just wait till the current h4 close & decide. Entirely up to you.
Thank You

Yea I've decided that dividing my attention "too" much between the thread and trading isn't very good for my account. Especially on days like this week...LOL

I'm no master buddy, just a newbie and I'm still learning too. I have to concentrate more on what I'm doing.

Very sorry bro.. but you have to know, there is no certainty in this kind of business. Esp. this is end of the week, there is no such 100 percent clear direction.. Set your sl, and believe me you have to prepare your loss..

Just for your info, i'm shorting from 1.6451.. set my sl to BE.. and its almost closing.. pretty dangerous.. beware of spike before NY close..

While anything can happen in this business, as WB said, I think the chances of getting to BE for you are slim. But watch it to the last minute before close. You never know, you may be able to set your SL tighter or take less of a loss.

Also like WB said, if you're at a point where you can't take loosing anymore, Kill the trade. This business is ALL about cutting your losses fast so you can live to trade another day...

Watching it slowly get worse, hoping it will come back is a sure fire way to kill accounts. Been there, done that.

Best of luck to you!!

Cut your losses now and wait for a better entry. Look like we are on our way up to 6500
