Will an obviously unchanged usd interest rate make eurusd go up?
Its not solely about whether the rates are raised or not. Even if the rates stay the same, the comments could cause reaction in the EU.

And stop missing them by 1 or 2 pips on the first test only to hit them subsequently, that is just being pedantic just to prove me wrong anyways.



You couldn't resist again no could you, miss the next number by 2 pips only to hit it pip perfect on the retest, biatch.


OK, I will stop my sarcastic rambling here. Just wanted to show how fairly easy it is to pick the price patterns in the morning to trade of from all day long.

Everybody should know what number we are going to touch next, especially Brunar, he has been thinking about the darn number all day long.

That's what stops are for.
Do you base all your trades on intraday charts? How do you handle your stoploss for trades that take several hours or days, or do you do intraday only? I'm excited to know as my stops are regularly hit although the overall forecast was right afterwards, sometimes feels like hunted for by market, so I guess the most obvious sl at daily limits isn't a wise choice. Keeping it tiny though is like scalping.

I never use stops, only manually close my trades for all my trading. I only use stops once I am happy with profits that I want to lock in.

Yeah I thought so. It is for the best, but soo risky in case your computer crashes or sth alike. Also if your forecast is wrong it requires you to have the balls to close out.

personal experience, but for trades that you intend to hold for days and weeks, i think a minimum of 50 pips SL is neccessary... (i am sure many will beg to differ)

crude inventories send it lower .
5 protesters shot mdead in yemen send it back up plus some.
No news doesnt affect price.
but news and price seem to happen at the same time .
Maybe its co-incidence .
I dont care if it is bullshit ,it works thats all that matters .
making green pips large and red pips small this is my goal.

That's the thing - as a hunter I'd go for exactly those 50p, because I expect people to be predictable like that.
So unneccessary losses, and keeping it bigger or arbitrary is too risky.

Cloggie doesn't make predictions, he wills the market into doing his bidding.

Cloggie doesn't lose pips, he negotiates the release of unrequired pips.

And what if the market goes insane not allowing you to close out early?
Like 500p panic selloffs? Not even have a safety money management stop?
You're the man, man.

That is such a rare event that I am not going to build that into my risk profile only to get stopped by silly spikes that happen daily. I used to have WTF stops in place, but did away with them as they were rarely triggered, this way I will have keep looking at the price while I am in a trade.

Finally you missed one by 7 pips, good on you for being at least a bit different once a day. And of course you had to do it after London closed, or did you do it because London closed, biatch. Come on don't let me down now, give it one more try here.
