50k in capital and trade 10 standard lots per trade...erm... then you're risking a lot for 1 trade is it?

Do you get nervous trading $100/pip with 50 K?

entry 9821, tp 9765. Now I really got to go.
Have fun and good luck.

ok i guess..only 10 lot can gets me the excitement, and most of the time i know what i am doing(i hope..hehehe..) i have lost half in one trade before, but also double in one trade as well...

pending

Also, if we close below Fridays close, I will be shorting towards 93 on tomorrows market open or when ever it happens. This is fairly obvious plan though, no rocket science here.

looks tasty

entry 2 contract, 10 lot, .9830 and 9841..greed....hehehe...gota go too, help me watch it guys! hahaha..good luck all!

I'm in short 0.01 units @.98356 targeting .98000

The number of lots traded are usually based on a 2% risk factor that you place on a trade, which includes the style of trading that you are doing. For instance, if you are swing trading with a 50 pip stop loss then your risk at 2% would be would be $1000. If 100 pips is worth approximately $1000 per lot then you could purchase 2 full lots at the 50 SL and still be in within a customary risk factor. 10 lots on this sort of trade would open you to a $5000 risk.

It depends on what you are prepared to risk. If you are scalping and allowing yourself a 10 pips stop loss as a risk on say S/R turnarounds or breakouts, then you could be trading with 10 full lots, which would still be worth a $1000. Trading more than that would set you up for a rapid removal of your capital.

I've seen guys lose $8000 to $10,000 in a trade and blow their complete account in short periods by trading more lots than they have capitol to cover.

Successful trading if more about money management then is it about learning trading systems.

While there is no official statement to this La Stampa story, market is still holding hopes that this rumor is TRUE.. No massive selloff just yet...

1 standard lot per 1k in the account? That's over leverage trading

Rule is, trade 1 standard lot ($10 a pip) per 10K in the account

guys wait to hit 0.98657 area so in between that area short all u have will dooom down

Have actually placed a second order at 9841, tp 94.

PA forming a flat top wedge suggestive of break upward... Hmmm... Not nice to shorties
