Here's the fall. I need it to get down to around 4375. I decided (foolishly) to go short at 4380 and now I'm getting crushed.

Depending on the leverage you used, sit tight for the next couple days and it'll pay off big.

What I've done is whenever it's passed through my sell position at least 20pips, I put a +1pip BE SL and wait and see. If it blows through my stop I reenter higher and repeat the process. Keep repeating the cycle till it sticks for 60+. It'll come.

Hang tite. I have a short from as low as .4395. Lets see what happens if/when it gets to the DP around .4400. If we finish the day sliding on the DOW, Asian stocks might well follow & E/U will keep on going down....

Good Luck!

I remember you saying you sold yesterday at what was it again? 4372 and 4390?

I have one short at 4380ish and then another one at 4430.

Yea I got rid of both at +1 reentered higher. I don't know what kind of margin level you're looking at. But if you're hurting I'd wait for price to hit 1.4380 and get out of that trade at BE and hold the 4430 to ride. Patience is going to be key to when riding this thing down.

Okay that's exactly what I'll do. I'm only trading like a 50 dollar account; this thing isn't to make money, it's for learning so I can eventually trade larger accounts. I just don't want to blow my entire account now and then have to put more money in because I'm poor right now.

so true. The no alcohol on Sundays, no cold beer EVER, and the social class gaps (started in the 1950s but still in place) definitely make it feel that way.

same...I absolutely hate taking losses. I need to learn though because, as I'm seeing right now, my positions can get out of hand in a hurry.

a few things that need to happen to give upper movement strength to continue much above 1.4444.. if we get above 1.4444.....nz above .6773 au above .8476 these for comoditys..usd/chf well you know why (below 1.0527). gu above 1.7047. usd dollar index below 77.40.

s/p above 1022.79 opens the gate, but could happen without it...so bounces are expected at any of these areas above... if all rejected well you know what happens...dont count your chickens till they shit on the porch.. IMFUO.. looks like we will know soon.... not long term but should...
