Just hit SL with 2 trades.. entered too late I guess...

Also lost some profit by exiting too late. I don't like working with a TP but exiting on TDI is kinda delayed.. Any tips :-)?

Back off...

Give me a break buddy. I'm not advertising... I was asked a question why I chose FXDD and I gave the answer. There are lots of Introducing Brokers out there... that's what their job is in my humble opinion...
Why FXDD ?

Well you all know I went to Compassfx years ago and got the TDI. I didn't care for the Synergy system because it's to conserative for me.

Well after several calls they convinced me that an introducing Broker was important so I went with FXDD thru them....

Well I've had 4 occasions where I felt I got screwed buy the charts/Broker... so I called Compassfx and complained... not FXDD. They are my go between...

In all 4 cases they went to bat for me and I won all 4 times and got my pips back... Couldn't be sweeter than that. You might consider that.

Your a squat ant to the Broker if you complain... but when dealing with a good Introdcing Broker they have clout because they bring a lot of business.... and the broker listens and wants to keep Compassfx happy...

Understand ?

I understand extremely good.

One guy more who is employed by a broker!

What a shit!

I'm out of here!

You an old fart like me (64) ? It's a full time job to keep all body functions working properly... some slipping more than others...

Sometimes it keeps me from trading too...

Good day old buddy...
Thanks Eric,

I'm 4 years ahead of you but, I still have a healthy appetite for all the good things in life!!! What some of these young whippersnappers don't get is that the reliable money is made on the longer tf. You are doing a great job of educating them as to the error of their ways.

I've made and lost a fortune trading but, I'd rather have traded, and lost, than never had traded at all!

Welp Eelfranz, I must say your system is giving great entries at all time levels. And very much appreciate your starting this threat!

I might even have to go back to not sleeping again, I'm having so much fun!....lmao!

Thought Id bring the love back......

Cheers!

Amen... it's in the blood I think... like a magenet pulling me... and besides it's a hell of a lot of fun... besides giving the brain a daily work out... better than push ups...

Lol, I feel bad for asking why E choose FXDD...
Did not meant for this to happen...

If he worked for FXDD why would he share his strategy on a public board, where everyone, with any broker can join in?

Wickedwin,

IMO , Personal preferance. I do a combination of BE and let it run, TP @ S/R line (you can always re-enter) or even use Traling Stop ( when I'm not at my trading station)

Main thing is don't let a winer turn into a losser!

The Best Stop Loss is a good entry!

Nick.s,

You got my head spinning... have you read the thread a couple of times... do you know the entry and exit rules... have you studied the chart examples I've posted... If not do so before you do any more Demo trading.

When you post a chart put a verticle line on your entry please...

Thanks...

Geraldfx...

I don't usually trade the 4hr chart during the day.. I have the N.Y. and Asian charts at that time and PA isn't really smooth/easy during those hours...

I live in Oregon... Pacific Time... and my broker updates my 4hr charts at PM, AM my time. So I check out any possible set ups starting at PM my time. If I find one I enter the trade... and go to bed.

I check back at 2AM (takes 10 min.) and if it still looks good I let it keep going... If it looks bad I close the trade... and go back to sleep.

At 6AM I wake and close all trades... Why?

During the day I trade the HR charts only....

I prefer trading the London Session... but when I wrote them and asked them to change their hours for my convenience... well.. you know what they said... get off the their planet ! Rude people... lol...
