I actually wrote an EA to do this one time... always in an order, as soon as order was entered 10 pip tp, 10 pip stop.

House edge (spread) ended up eating away at the balance

Accuracy was right around 50%. Go figure. lol

As soon as I did a 12 point target, 10 stop... accuracy went down to about 45%
If you do this on M5 in the direction of the H4 accuracy goes up nicely. In fact, if you demo it in both direction, it ends up like an indicator of 'trend'...when buys are outperforming sells we are in uptrend and the other way around. Gets slaughtered when ranging.

There seem to be a sweet spot around 30pip targets. Never understood what is special about 30ish. Any ideas?

didn't they say something like "no worries, we sorted it out for good" a couple of times already?
Maybe they should fake more "stress tests" to give back confidence... lol.

Euro Down, Dollar up, Gas prices down... good enough for me... lol

I'm sure a lot of people will buy at 1.4000.

The real question you should be asking though, is will the buyers exceed the sellers.
seems not enought.
take profit 1 pip

next stop 13070?

Absolutely... I'm ready for a 500+ pipper. It's been a while, for sure. lol

Ken should be rocking a solid position around there though (700-800 pips) if I'm not mistaken. To much consolidation & waves for me to try that right now Retraces have been brutal as well. lol

I had 2 solid positions up to 4400 ish, almost 1000 pips.. very good feeling..

eyes on 3970 (23rd of may) or going to bed?

Agree darimik, most posters in FF has prostitute the term hedging and they usually mean scaling in and out on the same pair
And no one can convince me that the notion of allowing long and short in the same account at the same time isn't an invention of the bucket shops to increase their order flow, for the same reasons as casinos will have slot machines side by side that both spin with the same joined-together handle.

yea, get it sorted...for christ sakes...
The will do it, last minute and one step before the cliff...thats the european way...but they keep playing with fire....

Air below 1.404x and as long as is below today, there is only "magic" lines as support reference. Closest real support on daily is far for today @1.389x. Key daily close today on the making...

Hey everybody,

It is been long time since I posted anything here. I believe that nothing will help EUR at the end even any bailout from any country in EU for Greece. It is just a temporary fix and not for long. I am still bearish bias due to the monthly , weekly and daily analysis. EU is trading between 1.44 and 1.41 lately and it will break ether way.

I still think we will see 1.37-1.38 area sooner than later.
I guess 1.37 still intact. Placed long order at that area.
Do not follow my trades. Trade what you see on your own charts.

what I'm really waiting for is for someone to open a window and shout to the world, "WE FINALLY SORTED IT OUT!", like the last times they held these meetings.
