Anybody expecting trades?

Lawgirl you are truly one of the few that are special. I entered a manual trade and then bailed at about -20 pips. Stomach couldn't take the ride all the way down.
not me still letting current trade run it's path.

Thanks CU and 66, I plan to play it out..still think overall trend is long...time will tell.
To me the immediate trend (Weelky & Monthly TF) is up.
We hit resistance @ 1.5960, when we get past that 1.63 looks good, the question is just how much the daily will retrace.

so for now like you Lawgirl21 just sticking to the plan.

I havent had any trades on Alpari demo. Also, when I try to backtest, I get the same results no matter what period of time I test???

Also also, does Alpari UK let us Americans use their live system?

I'm still in the long trade from Tuesday on FXDD. It's been a wild ride!

Came out yesterday with a 3 pip loss - didn't like the fact that NFP was due today and the kind of whipsaw you get form that can hit sensible SLs - particularly where there is already a drawdown.

You are on the right track with the trend - I reckon we are on bullish trend too but would like to get through the week before I switch back on

Lucky you, wish I'd done the same when I had the opportunity.

Be interesting to see how this plays out and if that 140 SL is enough to protect the trade coz at the moment I am feeling quite...

I think that today is NFP day today- so we won't see much happen until then. And then it may well move the market quickly to our SL (and end the pain!) or to our ultimate TP (and vindicate all of us who have trust in the robot!)

Fingers x'ed for bad news out of the USA.

In the nicest possible way.

yes. I was sleeping and the ea entered long, FXDD.
Anyone else get a trade?
The last time I was the only one with a trade it was a dog, all the way to -140.
No, buddy, my ea's were converging...

Real unemployment in the US is more like 18% but the official is 9.5%

I see it going to 9.6% but it should be more like 10% but you know they fudge the numbers.

Saying that my official predidtion is 9.4 to make obama look good but if yiou look at the weekly number it has gone up but that is the govt working for you

Phew, that was close, heading north again.... (but for how long?)

Looks like this trade might drag into next week... that must be a record of some sorts!

Scrub the above, lost 1/2 my bottle and manually closed the TS trade for +3 pips... will let the 20TP trade ride and see will it hit.

If it does, it will be yet another proof positive of this remarkable system

If you go through the thread you will see comments on which perform better than others but remember, it was built using Alpari UK as the preffered broker and afaik, that is the broker that Geoff still uses
