The best two adavatage to it is very little stress that allow your mind the capacity to think without pressure and less babysitting time ... other than that, it require huge capital to sit down just to protect the position and very small reward in the end !

I never thought you tried it before

no SL works OK when in a range. but you get killed when it starts trending.. I remember once I held a pos for 4 months. It never came back. Stupid thing to do.

reason why i am purely a scalper now (well 90% scalping..)

even when i see potential for 30 pips, max risk is 10..

more typically 5-8 pips

still scalping or intraday swing trades only for you Attila?

hows the trades been over the last couple months?

same as you. short bias, but I'm staying away for now.. I nipped 20 some on the spike, so I better don't spit in the eyes of forex gods.
Good plan! That was a nice catch!

Plenty of time to see it turn and jump on board. Pretty quick rise on the way up...should produce a decent correction WHEN the bastards decide they've had their fill.

You should always have some sort of hard-stop loss in case of a random news event. Especially people playing with larger sums of cash, but they've probably already learned that lesson.

yup seen the market move 100 pips in 5 minutes, even those who typically trade with 20 pip stop, you gotta always have it set just incase.

It's not really what you think.. It was (and sometimes still is) a different style of trading.. I sometimes still do it but less and less.. The pips were much better, but higher stress not sure it's worth it..

Here's one scenario:

EURUSD pulls back to 1.2956 - 1.2957
Launches from there to 1.3036
EURAUD touches 1.25033

At 1.3036, you get to bitch-slap this dog like you've been wanting to this past week...
Quoting BlueCirrus
First, open an H4 chart, squeeze it up until you can see as far back as the September 17th high, and look to the left of the current price and ask yourself where the swing traders who are short would capitulate. The market makers want those stops before taking the market back down. As far as position traders who are short, the market will come back later on and take care of that business.

Second, there are multiple price projections into that area, although, as you said, it can go even higher (I have 1.30574 and 1.30743).

Third, looking at EURAUD's...
The pullback today went 14 pips deeper, otherwise this is still valid, except the EURAUD.....

Contradicting the early Reuters report, DJ now says "No Final Deal Yet on Greece Debt Sustainability", citing unknown sources. It is going to be another long night in Brussels? Reuters adds on Greece: "However, discussions were continuing on details of the measures to reduce Athens' debt burden." MatinaStevis, Journalist with Dow Jones and the Wall Street Journal, notes on her Twitter account: "We are also told Greece debt deal conditional on upfront commitment to cut country's debt by 20% GDP."
