I'm not on that trade eb, but If I was, I would have played #2 and tried to exit at BE as soon as I realized the Fakeout...

Hope it helps

Thanks jplo,

I realized that is a fakeout by that long 14 pips bar in opposite way Anyway I'm glad it's not a full stop loss.

I have read most of the thread, but can't find where #1, #2 etc trade setups are listed. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Look for post 3031 TP - it's two defensive strategies to survive the price retracing on your position with a minimum of damage. Something, as it happens, I failed to my cost to implement effectively today!!!

Hi All,

Here are todays charts.

Only two trades the first at -2. Second at +8

The second I held for a long time and I suppose I could have banked more pips, but I wanted to hold during the news as I was in a poitive positio at the time. As Fx had saidnyesterday it was 50/0 call. On this occassion I got away with +8, but it couilf have been +58

Thanks for all the posts and thanks to FX for the chart he just put through showing what happens if you don`t close and let yourelf get into problems. That alone is another piece of gold. Newcomers would be advised to truly take note.

Fx, I am hoping for you that some heavy hitter guys who are sitting long for the day only and want to pack up early ,take some money off the table amd you get a gradual retracement so as to let you out at BE.
