yesterday i had a buy till evening market was diving and i was in red.....i started buying every 50-60 pips....finally market ,moved up and all my 5 position came up green...i closed all my position with 1500$ profit....so if your account is much bigger then u can also average it down.

averaging down is much better option then hedging.
Sure way to lose money if you keep doing it that way. Congrats on the winning trade this time. If you want to add as you go then its fine, but you still need to calculate maximum dd. Don't forget you're trading, not investing.

hi all..

need advice here, i had short position @1.3820 yesterday, what should i do? cutloss or hold?
Do you still have sl in place?

If you do then let the trade run till your sl is hit.
Next time, set tp in realistic area.

If you don't have sl in place then cut the loss and move on.

Let's know more about your trade before we try to help you.

1. How much drawdown you are facing right now, in terms of % (no need to provide the $ amount, just percentage of drawdown)

Calculate drawdown percentage using this formula:

(Your account balance just before this trade MINUS Your account balance now) DIVIDED BY (Your account balance just before this trade) MULTIPLY BY 100.

2. What % of your account balance you can lose without worrying too much? (calculate this percentage on you account balance that was just prior to this trade)

3. Where are your sl and tp, if any. If no tp or sl, how many pips profit you were expecting from this trade? and how many pips loss you planned to take?

4. What is the most convenient session for you to trade NY, Tokyo, or London? It will be great if you can provide exact timing in Eastern Time.

Ps. No need to reply if you are Ashkan, Carcoure, or Alghoz............ anyway.

Hello Traders,

I came to the conclusion, that this count fits best. Especially the subwave 3 of blue 3 meets in this way the peak in Awesome Oscillator.

In this way we have to deal with a failed fifth (blue 5)



Now let us have a lok at the leg A up. Wave A seems to be nearly ready. Maybe one last push higher to max. 3926.


Maybe later more........

Have a nice weekend and best wishes,


Markus

You might be right but this is what i see

A move down to test support at 3830-3860 then lift off heading towards 4030 and beyond with maybe a bump at 3940

I could be totally wrong of course but that rising TL seems to have held as support. A daily close below 3740 would signal a substantial move south

Hi Kill,

Hope you are well. I'm traversing through your excellent Indicator thread but can't seem to get my MT4 platform to setup similar to yours. Would you have a template please for one of your following charts or tell me the indi's used in the chart. I tried the RSXV3 instructions but nothing is appearing on the charts only empty window panels

Thanks,

The next big fundie trade is when Portugal needs a bailout and the FI boys have been quietly working this week to bring that one to the brink.

Portugal is bankrupt and there is nothing they can do about it, the train is in motion and has left them behind in the station.
Our government keeps saying that we won't need IMF's help, of course only a very few believe them.

Portugal has also at this moment other problems to solve. It has a big structural problem, the government has an extrem weight in Portugal's economy, and a classroom politics that serves themself first, before the country.
