Agreed, I only try these when as a bonus. If I lose the loss is very small, if I get it it's another bit of leverage to add on to a major move (then move stop to BE)

Such as going short at 2440 or something. Awesome opportunity for it.

I use 3-5 pip stops when scalping 10-20 pip ranges though, that's the only other time I can think of using extremely tight stops.
Same here, stop never bigger then 3-5 pips, basically just playing on RR, which is usually at least 1:5, even if i do have like 3-5 losing trades in a row, the one that puts me on "train" will bring all back, it depends on the PA, but around 20-30 i secure some,depends on situation, and i almost everytime add to winning position, but the first goal is always securing capital, putting to BE like you said...

I do not have trades on this pair, but the way I see it there is not much support until 2150 unless it forms a double bottom or double bull flag on the way.

US OUTLOOK: Barclays says a pace of job gains in August similar toJuly (+163k) "if combined with an improvement in other activity data,would be sufficient to negate the need for a further round of QE inSeptember, in our view." For investors looking for yield, "Foreigncurrency bonds swapped to USD offer attractive investment opportunitiesfor US investors, in our view. We favour Japanese, German and Frenchnames, as well as agencies such as KFW. For those seeking cashalternatives, we recommend...
I wonder why would anyone want to buy Japanese or US bonds when the yield is already so low and unlikely to fall further. Especially since aussie 15 years for example are above cash rate right now and the RBA are likely to lower rates by 75bbp.

Who takes risk without mental preparation?

A rich man wastes lot of money while wasted money can save many people's livelihood. Those are not demo money. lol

I hope you have a zero spread then because lets say that you have an average spread of 2 pips then 3-5 stop is really 1-3 pips....

really that is just fantasy land even with zero spread
