I thought about it, but it went 1 pip lower than I wanted to see.

very risky trade but it is at the bottom of the 15 channel. it its covered so no risk now

My primary broker blends my prices. I'm with MB for my primary account. Some don't like the spread with a commission, but I've had ZERO issues with them.
Thanks Eo...do u use them for charts also?

Nah! I use Rumus for my charts. MB's charts on Navigator SUCK and I don't use their MetaTrader software either.

Hey David, I show my daily trend as up (even though we have seen a few days of bears and today has been one. With the Bullish engulfing I am looking to ride it up to 1.637x range which has a lot of Resistance...

on the 15m I see the previous move downs high, 35ma and 50ma.
on the 1h I see the 10ma and on the 4h I see a 10ma..

Now this is just what I see, but could be way off and would love feedback.

Guys, I also just realized I said bearish engulfing in my 1st post, I meant bullish and apologize for that.

My mate has an account with interbank FX and they have got around the fifo rules some how, not sure exactly blending of prices is one of the things they do
Pretty simple really David. I have IBFX and all they do is now provide the "official" trading record through our on-line accounts. They simply "re-order" the trades to comply with FIFO so nothing changes on our end or how we use the Mt4 platform or trade. The only thing is the Mt4 trading record will now differ slightly from the "official" one. And of course it only happens when you have multiple trades on the same pair.

We can still open and close in any order. All our EA's and/or advisor's work the same. Buy or sell limits/stops are the same, trailing stops are the same. Nothing in how the end user trades has changed at all....

Only wish I could trade in both directions at the same time though. Can only do that with a second account....

That makes more sense, but I still cannot see how you can say the daily trend is up.
