EURUSD, Weekly, 2012 Octobre 17
EURUSD, Monthly, 2012 Octobre 17
EU Weekly's Range 1.28-1.3170.
We're still within this range.
Maybe a divergence could shaping out. If so, then the market price has to go 1.3166 >.
We'll see.
Monthly could go further up ~1.3545 (max.) when the weekly's range will be definitely broken. So take a look at the volatility.

I stay on the sideline and wait today.
Maybe I will trade tomorrow or next week.
The market seems to become more uncontrollable inputs.
Speculators parody...or so.

I've hedged all my open EURUSD Shorts around 1.3105. Monthly could go till 1.3420 (1.3540)...but a forced retracement at smaller time frames could be also possible. I don't like to lose my orders at the Forex Market, so it could be that the next two weeks I have to do more with LOM (Loss Order Management). I don't know. The Future will tell me more.

So also all Shorts at the DAX ~ 7390 has been hedged.

I wish you green pips!

Hi Axel
I'm sorry that happened.
When I was caught flat-flooted I make LOM the next days & weeks to counterbalance the open minus orders. It's also an interesting doing at the FX market for me. So I contend for my Loss Orders and won't give it up via Stop Loss most of the time. Every order will get a chance to run in the win zone sooner or later or I execute a loss order when I have make another win with about the same amount.
Kindest regards

Hi FxCube,

I understand that you don't like stop loss and I tend to agree with you, allthough it depends on the trading strategy.
What I don't understand is the difference between hedging vs. closing with a loss; from a technical point of view isn't it the same? or I am missing something?

Thanks as usual!

Hi Puma!
Maybe it might be better for your understanding to read the Hedging in conjunction with the LOM concept, which I have written in some of my other threads (link at p.1, #1), e.g. http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=345284, see LOM.
or

Hi FxCube,

I am a bit interested in your hedging technique, you have hedged this position earlier. Did you closed before price began moving down, or you left floating? Also I am curious what size was 'the hedged order'.

Thanks for your time, Paul.

Hi Paul!
I have the Longs (Hedging ones) closed ~1.3130, after the M15/H1 candles didn't make further moves to the top afterwards. A minor fraction had executed in a small minus after the market price has fallen below 1.31000. The problem was that with some accounts I have expanded the risc in the expectation that the daily candle 2012.10.16 could overlap the one a day before. It wasn't so. It seems to be more an hazy FX market at 2012.10.16. This could happen here and there. Seems to be more: exceptions prove the rule.
Kindest regards
