If you start playing the daily's I guarantee you'll get less hunt and spikes...just be sure to allow your positive trades to run beyond your stop loss risk and you'll be alright...

Another idea is to allow your gains such that you use part of it to create a larger stop loss on the next trade....

find a trendline on larger tf enter there as close as possible. (with trend only) place sl not far from it. (dont move sl) only look for 100 plus pip potential. place daily weekly and monthly pivots on chart. (update each day) use your head. if tl and pivot meet up they should be stronger. maybe use a couple of indicators. place sl at be when able. if your with the trend as time goes on to hit be will be out of the trend. take some profit 40% in trend..maybe half. dont let a green trade turn red.. very simple but few can stick to it.. the enemy is you..dont get greedy or you will be needy. never risk more then 1 or 2 % in a trade. that doesnt mean you cant have more the 5% or more out as time goes on.. it means its protected. once at be you have only the green pips at risk..

well, I'm back...

if someone wants to be so kind and tell the world, that USDCHF is in wave 3.
Earlier you mentioned that if it rose to a certain spot you would go long EURUSD, which didnt make sense to me since they are inverse pairs.

Can you please explain to me how you use USDCHF to trade EURUSD. I used to use gold as an indicator but its been less reliable as of late.

I never get a margin call, what actually happen really with mrgin call. Let's say we have 10k acc, and use 2k to open a position. The trade is running red and our available margin 8k got sucked up. I know that where we get margin call and our losing position will be close immediately. My question is..do we still get the 2k back.

what happens when you get a margin call on your other account?

started with 10k and haven't looked back but i'd rather be mr 1.2B
I also started with 9k, got up to 15.5k then down to where i am now. 4.5k yay! Funny thing is, I started with 10k on a test account and its now at $21968.24 with a high of $33515.38 in the 6 trading days its been active.

Even odder, it has a lame 52% win ratio!

Depends on the broker. I know FXDD required a 100% margin level, my current broker requires 0%.. so basically my account can run to ZERO equity and the trade will automatically close, returning the margin used to broker.

With the 100% level... if your using 2k margin and your account falls to 2k margin... your trades close and you end up with 2k.

max i ever had in my acc is 1.2k, now it is 0.8k. I never wealth up my acc, i don't trust my broker . So constant take profit and when ever i need money i use it from my forex acc. So my salary won't be touch or at least i use only a smal portion of it.

Wow with 10k, i think i will manage 0.1-0.2 k every month which is more than enough for me.

Everyone will laugh, but I fully plan on retiring when I can manage a good steady trading history. There was a point I was making 300 bucks a day on average till I made poor choices.
