Do you mind sharing who is your broker? Here in the States we have some limitations as far as hedging goes. Need to find alternatives.
Recommed FxOpen , Oanda , Alpari



I'll move to DukasCopy in next 2 months ~ to get there need alot of papers

The only person i listen to is they guy who have Billions.His pip is 2500$.His persentage is 96%(profit).And he never use stop loss.


Let me guess, he's a billionaire who trusts you, and only you, with the secrets of Forex.

I can tell you right now billionaire or not he doesn't know how to trade if he's not using stop loss. Maybe he's better off not using a stop loss because he doesn't know how to trade. But when you know how to trade, you maximize your profits by closing trades in the negative sometimes. I'm not debating this with you because it is a mathematical certainty. You could sit here and tell me you know 100 billionaires that trade that way and I will tell you they all suck as REAL traders. Tell your billionaire friend I'll bet him a billion dollars in a competition on who can grow account larger (percentage wise). He cannot stop any negative trades and I can. Tell him please.

After having a best trade ever, also call it here in this thread, riding it short from 4410 and take profit target set at 3850 was missed by 2 pips, closed at 3895. I took long now, bur very risky against trend so just risking 0.5% we will have retracment to possible 4200, but this fella can turn around anytime. Daily shows me a quite possible retracment is in the way. If you look at weekly, this short move could just be weekly retracment. Carefull carefull,...

Gold above it's daily trend line.

Don't want to disuade anyone here from their style of trading, if it works for you then do your thing, but stop loss is a good thing. I know this might not make sense, but using a stop loss properly is more profitable. Reason is time spent waiting for a trade (or trades) is opportunity cost wasted. And if your broker charges swap fees even worse. I know some people say they have all day because they have deep pockets, but that doesn't make sense. Why not be more efficient??

Example: Lets say a buy order of yours is sitting -20 (negative) pips...

Yeah I know what you're saying, and you're not wrong. For me though, I like to take 100 pips +. Not saying that I won't take 20 if that's all that's on offer!! In the current situation, I see this downtrend resuming at some stage, and I still am pretty sure that my target of 3740 is on the cards. I would rather wait out the 'noise' rather than get whipsawed all over the place, and wait for the PA to come to me. If it doesn't, it doesn't! Nothing lost. If it comes while I'm asleep, and then goes back and hit's my stop loss at -40, well, shit happens!

I guess it depends on your trading style...for me though, I'm not interested in 10 - 30 pips when it's a bit risky of my sl (of say 20) getting hit , but I am interested in 150+ pips, with a 40 pip sl risk. Chances are that my sl won't get hit after my pending order is triggered. If it does, well, like I say, shit happens!!

I just only wait the top line for this bull. And open short at the top.
Also, for me, I see euro would go up to 1.4100 ~ 1.4150.
