I am working with a trailing stop of 10 pips on every trade- mostly Eurusd pair and I must say it is saving me so much money it is incredible- also very low stress-

The one trade I didn't use it on is 30 pips underwater-

---It sure saves your account and gets you used to being wrong without losing much while waiting for the trend to reverse

-Anyone else using a trailing stop and if so what have you found to be the best amount?

TIA
Forex trading is not about saving money even tho it's still better then losing.

Hey Clogs!

Been a good long while between muppet-spots!

After a holiday and long break from this zoo I took your advice and traded by myself using everything I'd learned off these turt levels and using the if-and-ifs.

Safe to say, just under 100% return in 5 trading days. Number of trades is also down significantly and I'm learning to wait for the big pay-offs. The if-and-ifs help clear out the mind from the noise.

Good to see you re-negged on not helping anymore. Some people don't get your "honey-covered" methods and that's fine. But it'd be a shame for those genuinely trying not to get a few pearls.

Anyways, onwards and upwards. I think Gator called it great today at 37. That's where I closed a trade from 85 (missed the 66). Turts! Gotta love em

Funny you should say that...

When success begins to appear, other important factors come into play.

Previously My R/R is currently too high. Part of that is cos of initial account size and also I'm on a spreadbet account so the min lot size is £0.50. It's a new account specifically to trade using "new style"

--- actually my maths is sh!te. I'm not up 100%, I'm up.... 500%. Turned £20 into £100. So, my S/L is NOW set to 20 pips @ .5 = 10% risk. TP is set between 40-60 pips.

Anyways. I may not trade today. Volume will taper off cos of 4th July and I don't fancy giving anything back to the market trying to pick a top.
