FXA, I have moved my SL to 4397. Do you condider that too close to the heat of the battle ? That's how I have been managing my trades so far but would appreciate your feedback.

thanks,
B


its a safe play... but notice that the your not out of the woods yet.. your still within 1st hurdel within first 25pips.. it could give you a full retrace before unlishes for a nice bear move... i would personally keep my sl 5 pips above the LV...
but... if i was infront of the screen my LV would have been much higher like Miss B seatting prettyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeee...

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I have noticed my SL's are a bit too tight and stand the chance of being taken out before a nice move in my direction. Ok, another one for my notes - don't be a tight as_ ! Lol !

ty fx. now i'm playing B (runner first). my sl is still 1 tick above trigger FCR, -5 from my entry, but i'm trying to pay attention to LL level. but would a break the fcr formed by 11:50 am candle, be enough to change direction so early in the game??? million-dollars question!. sorry, i don't know what W.B is yet.

your right about the million dollar question.. who knows, all we can do is to test things.. but right now u got a nice brearish go market during a low liquidty time of Londi session.. i would keep my postion.. unless you have given up a lot on afew fakeouts and wanting to take some off the table to compestate the earlier lossess.. always think MM aswell..

todays current londi session its been in a 50-60 movment.. so not a whole alot for us to work with.. so its wise sometimes to take look at where u are money wise and maybe preserve some just keep our head above the water and play the surviving game..
thats why the early enteries will come so handy when there is not a much of a movment but u get the chance to banks some good 30 pips out of just some noise movment and if it decides to run then Viola!!! you got the best seat in house watching it run babyyyyyy.. its better than lottery... lottery happens maybe once in the life time... this can happen every damn day... and getting rich slowley but SURLEY.. not to mention u have learned a life lasting skill.

W.R = weak breakout..

notice that i been doing this for a year now... i have paid my dues.. gone throught the agonies (still sometimes) and alot of screen time under my belt and losts of mistakes and victories all togheter..

you will have bads day ahead of you.. losing, confusion, pulling hair (unless ur bold..lol).. oh my favorite, the head banging.. watching runner pass right by you.. then getting in when it start to give fakeouts.. ohhhhhhhhhh man you name it..

all that is just obsticles in the time of learning and it has to take its course.. for some shorter then others.. but what you dont want to do is to not sticking with your guns.. and thats why i mentiond what i mentioned.. so you guys stick with it and soon enough you will be over the hump and start to be profitable..

i miss your words.. come on give us one. we got a nice new breed of traders in here lately..

read my scenario 3..

but.. as a trader we live and die with our decisions eventually.. its a matter of choice and goals..
you had the chance to max profit for 40 at the test of recent LL.. or save 20 or risk it all to see if you can get one more shot at the LL and keep your bigtime runner option open.. any of the above are valid... the ball is in your court..
but be proud of yourself for how u have hang on and played the game so far... most times you will have got the bounty by now (+70 ++ by now)..

Long order now at 1.4398 for a potential early bullish ride. But we'll see.
You wont survive without preserving!!!

Hi FXA,

I am still in the trade (short 4399) because my goal is to catch that runner so I am willing to endure the frequent small losses. My SL is still at 4397 so there is no risk for me at this stage (+2 worst case scenario).
It is hard getting the mindset right to accept losses (to catch runners) but I think I have managed to overcome this hurdle quite easily after seeing the light .

Cheers,
B.

With you there Jazz. I have my stop (for current short from 4399) at 4397 and a long order as well at the same level.
