it happened at least 3 times including july and this one... considering London and NY
So trying to clarify- it happened in July then once again since then and then yesterday? So we are looking at maybe once every couple of months or so?
by the way the one yesterday went about 300 pips.
that's right
we've had an excellent year, I wish it was always like that, I can recall about a dozen epic wins this year
. So I made 2 x 140 pips and yesterday I made 200 pips, my TP was 300 pips, but I was not at home and could not watch the trade, so I said that's enough for this month! When my target is 140 I don't watch the trade, but with 300 I try to look at the chart at least every hour, because I dont want to give it all back. One of the trades was to restore some pips, but then I got 140 !
Hi Tony!
I don't write very often, but it should be said that your method is excellent!
I had 3 epic wins in novemer, because there is also a little gambler within me
just what i was going to ask...quick calc and even at 0.25% fixed risk (assuming sl of 2 pips), a 140 pip win increases your account by 17.5%!...what is the largest consecutive run of 2 pip losses since the switch to current version, i wonder?...at 2% FR 140 pip win equates to 140% gain!
...have i missed something, or aren't we looking to enter from a stronger momentum candle, 8-10 pips rather than less than 5?
edit: scrub that, found earlier post...To sum the whole thread up: At open, wait for 1+ pip jump up or down, open trade in that direction, move to BREAK EVEN as soon as possible. (say 5-10 pips into profit depending on your risk) Do not let price retrace back on your entry more than 2 pips.
