Anna, you would have made loads more buying the dips instead, less risk more reward. Why fight the trend? Trading is so much easier if you follow the herd instead of trying to fight it hoping your trades will reverse it.

Yup, Spanish auction at 0930 (3 Bn) and loads of fundies on the "normal" schedule. We have had over 300 pages here this week and most are looking for shorts instead on making it easy on themselves and going with the intermediate trend.

Spain and Italy bond sale went well , market sentiment is good short term, however, the debt is still on the table and cannot be overlooked.

Generally, the market likes to retrace to the .618 and that area if you pull the fibs, culminates with where sellers are lined up.

Will sellers hold off the push up - we'll have to wait and see. The trend is still down and we are in the retrace of the downtrend.

the trend is down Cloggie... i noticed the buy from the heavy positive divergence but didnt have enough guts to take the risk... in my opinion both eu and gu will drop, so just picked points for shorts..

This whole week has been utter madness here on the thread. The biggest reason retailers fail is their bias. Since Sunday the big money has been buying and the majority of the retailers have stubbornly been fighting it. There are hundreds of posters here that cannot see what the easier trading strategy is and keep fighting it all the way down to MC.

Nobody here can put up a single chart to justify that the shorts are paying of better then longs.

I am giving up fighting the trend on this thread, there is no point.

Put up a single chart that shows that since Sunday shorts made more money then longs, your view is so biased and blinkered that you cannot see what is in front of you.

Stop fighting the big money and just follow them. You as a tiny retailer cannot win unless you follow the big money. All long setups all week have paid of multiples of any short setup.

My position trades are up over 2,000 pips since Sunday and that does not include the intraday longs I have taken along side them.

I am seriously starting to question why I bother here. You guys will never make it in this business unless you follow some very basic trading rules.

Enuf said, no surprises. Up 260 pips.

See y'all.

Day 4 of a textbook retrace and still most here are looking for shorts, go figure.
Hi Cloggie,
A big thanks for your posts again.

I have been following your advice since last Sunday and held one long position ever since (until yesterday's London close, wasn't expecting such a huge move - i still have a lot more to learn).

I have to say that I had to struggle with the muppet in me at some stage, escpecially on Monday.
I am up 407 pips since the beginning of the year, mainly through learninng out of your posts and a few others (Sisse, Wormboy, Tarantula, Hda etc) and in addition to this, you avoided me some costly mistake, so thanks again all. It really helps!

i was as well; first i thought i was paranoid but then did live research on multiple brokers, and the worse is a dodgy one in Cyprus or something (cant say their name)! But I stopped using indicators last year and dodgy brokers, and the combination works like magic... I like Alpari and few other ECNs...

good luck and live test, its very easy to see what they get up to...

Trading is so simple, just follow the big money, they have been buying since Sunday. The easiest setups in the world are following them, they are no brainer trades.

Plenty here are fighting the trend though with their micro lots, thinking they can make a difference.

I don't use a retail broker.

Don't get me started on hedging, why not just get your trade right instead.

Hi Cloggie. Could you please explain how did you identify that big money are buying on Sunday? What shall I look for? It's good to follow your calls but I want to be able to do it myself.
