Does anyone think GU will break 1.5900
Yeap, it's going to 1.63-1.65

In days like this I see better use of Stop Buy orders instead

of Limit Buys, but Ones pair settles down for some kind of a

range, Buy Limit will get more handy.

two of my positions were closed with +94 pips this morning, but a second one was trailed by 50 step, so if i would set up 70 or 80 i would still have it open and trailed up

Ok, look at this daily since last high. If Cable doesn't stop at

1.5950-1.60 (61.8 Fib) then we can see 1.70 next (full retrace )

and I think we will:

Sasha, which one you are using? Buy Stops?

Almost impossible to grab anything with the Buy limit now,

cause Dollar tanking like a titanic (what else is new )

yes, i used buy stop

actually, is it possible to make ea suggesting to choose limit or stop orders based on some algorithm? like you said, calculating high/low of prev day etc. i mean just to make a hint option in the very last line of message where say "LIMIT ORDERS ARE SUGGESTED"

sasha ...

first of all BIG THANKS!!! for willing to share ....

to limit the risk, I'd like to choose for example:
first trade 1 full lot, second 0.5, and the last .1,

instead of 1,1,1 or whatever ...

what do you say guys???? it's a good ideea? many time I freaked out and I close earlier ..... I think you know what I'm talking about ...
hard to code?

thanks.....

What I'm thinking right now it's a potential to place those Buy

Limits in spread.. Let's say 3 orders scenario trigger a buy,

Place 1st order immediately and place 2nd 20 pips lower and 3rd

40 pips lower (Limited Buys), if pair never goes down, fine, we still get 1 order

in profit and if it does we going to average down sort off..

So far just testing limited order version and see how to do that

in better way..
