he has been short since 3233.
If it is ugly now, it can get even worse later. I would just cut this and live to fight another day if I where him
Yeah I agree.

I learned this the hard way, was in a for about half a dozen full sized lots a month or so ago in GBP/JPY.

Fell asleep, rate news came out, and trade went against me 300 pips.

I tried to wait it out, and the more I waited the higher it went.

The Swiss Franc is still hitting new all time highs against the US dollar which lost against the Euro as well during early Asian Trade on Friday. The Swiss Franc almost hit a record high against the Euro as well which managed to gain some of its losses and traded above 1.3300 against the Dollar during the night. The market is thinning even more today as both Japan and the UK will remain closed for the year-end.

so should i cut i t now or shld i wait it out? i really dunno .. my mind's a blank right now..
only you can decide that... though most of the people here are talking right when they say cut your losses.. if you still have equity - cut your losses... otherwise you might end up with no account and no account means no trading...

walk away till the new year and look for good opportunities to trade... there will be plenty more trades next year you can profit off... gl

I guess 1.3400 barrier needs to go and stops just above and that might be it for today.

since there.... i dunno ... there might not even be a potential reversal..
Important: you must live to trade another day. Start looking for setting rules to your system, situations like this can mess up your mind and confidence.
Talking about experience. Do your own decision and do it now.

yeah my g/f is sleeping with this monitor blaring into her face, she's a trooper.

but the way I see it, for now until I get a good trading methodology and am consistent, I want to see my trades all the way through.

I don't feel comfortable right now setting my TP and SL calling it a night, and waking up to see what's going on later today.

Pretty shitty 100 pip profit vanished on Tuesday. Re-entered long; up 75 pips -- that vanished as well. Then entered short @ 1914. Stopped out @1944 for another 30 pip hit. I cannot afford to keep allowing profitable trades turn into losses, waiting for the 150 pip target according to the 5MFX system. From now on I am going to have to start taking profits whenever I have them.

you are going to do wrong thing put 5 % of equity every time in order andalways have 50 pips stoploss and 150 pips profit in eurusd
