good idea to hold on to bad trades instead of admitting that the timing was bad. hedging is just another form of not being able to do what you have to do and getting rid of crappy trades.

dont cut losses is first step to margin call...hedging the second...

they may be guys who are quiet profitable with it... who knows..

I agree sir it was a bad trade, but I prefer to hold it instead of reducing balance, coz the market always returns back.

No harm waiting till 2020

I respect your experience though, you are a genuinely good trader.

im not anticipating nothing unless shots ring out. but i got 3769.9 3752.1 3660.6 3548.1 i skipped a bunch.. #s are close indicating a sausage factory. if i get a long signal ill probably take it.
once these are completed they become soft s/r.. we have bounced and now returned. 3402 would be the next wave in a position. todays low is 3546.4 .. just below 3548... a bear indi

even hedging has rules, can't hedge with a 300+ pip gap, instead will wait for a good entry.

My way of handling this situation is to forget the open trades and take new trades instead, with proper trend reading and continue to build deposit.

close the trade early and get back in at a bargain price without a ugly dd.

i aint touching a long this close to resistance.. if i did it would have a short leash with good mm.. it would have to break resistance or be the recent low with a candle and rsi to back it. this is a fools game. but its entertaining to see the justifications after the fact.

many have and are missing the fact of easily passing 3590/93 and 3610.. let the gmt close to prove or disprove the est closing right or wrong.

Perhaps this latest attempt at stimulating growth will show a little more USD bullish strength...

I seen it on the interwebs, it's gotta be real!
