I found 1.2562 very strong level...so, based on what happen last time with price when was around this level...i am trying to go long targeting 1.2625-1.2638...sl 50 pips
i just weekly trade see

so if i see more than 5 candles going down i usually avoid going long totally.

but all traders are different

but yeah i do think price will retract

has pulled away from its 20 ema alot so as a rubber band it will fling back to it

how many pips you going for?

50 pip stoploss your very brave

i use 266 pips stoploss if i make what i risk this is good buit try for three times as much

takes a while but usual do make it

how come s just 50 pips, most times i tried that amount i just get wiped out can do it but

your eyes must be killing you if your watching the screen all day


Stop losses are placed at levels which, when broken, there's great possibility of PA not going back resulting in further losses. Placing SL is not based on some magical numbers.

if it looks like a sell i sell
if it looks like a buy i buy
and avoid whip saw moves and massive candles or whwen the market is nicking from traders

yeah you are right

but i just try to avoid two days trading range

a few day candles exceed 150 + in pips so i try avoid a wipe out on the first day

once in profit i move the stoploss closer to the entry

so if im up by 100 pips i move it down a hundred

i first going for making a percentage of my risk 100 percent plus is extra

is working but yes would like to bring 266 pip sl a bit smaller so i see return faster

just trying to avoid the trading range of the last few days just when getting in
need to perfect it a bit more

Anyone considering buying Euro swing basis has to check out ADX on Daily chart, I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.

Also to see how "great" things are in Euro check out EUR/AUD Monthly chart. Australia hasn't been blessed with a recession. Check out this flight to safety out of Euro!

when you see the usd stronger. and at the same time you see the yen stronger then usd it usually means flight to safety. usd/jpy may settle out and swap.. but it still has flight to safety written all over it.

Is it oil leaking that makes such price or?

I can't explain to myself why stocks are going up and oil is down now... cuz in a time of downtrend oil should go up for little longer after stocks dive
