I am sorry truly but my honest opinion would hurt you. Do you realise the number of consecutive losses here...? The problem is pretty clear... Close all and give yourself a break mate... If you keep on trading, you will blow that account very soon. I am really sorry, I really don't enjoy saying you these.

QUOTE: [color=SlateGray]Depends which side you hold there will be a PUT and a matching CALL, so if you hold a PUT a 1.30 that gives you the right to sell @ 1.30 if the price is below you will exercise it. If you hold a CALL @ 1.30 and price is above you would exercise your right to buy.

Now, if an exercise happens, then currency will change hands, if it is a covered option (you hold the currency already) then no impact otherwise you have to go to the market to get the currency to fulfill the option exercise which is where it can impact...
you are welcome

Add cash and wait for them to fall out?

It is a waiting game if you want them out in profit.
Even the worst trade can close with profit. Just give it time.

You are using an EA specialized in selling bottoms and buying roofs ! Delete this stupid EA and don't use it again - this should for a start ...

It won't be that easy John , he has hedges inside these trades at the tip and bottom of this move - which mean that not matter price goes down or up , the lose will be hanged and increase near the middle or above the tip point ! Its really a mess ..

Good job mate...! I believe we will at least test the expected level 1.3245 but am playing with a tight SL on this one. I hope we don't touch 1.3220 for the next few hours again. And needless to say I may cash out if we do reach 1.3240s, have to be very careful there imho.

34 is currently the sticking point.
With profit taking and options closing, there seems to be an unresolved higher price.
Long range target is 3380.
Closer is 3330-50
I had 315 yesterday and interestingly it paused at 310.... Not sure why, but sign of profit taking eagerness before higher.

Yes, on the actual management of my trades, all stops are now at BE+1.
TP1 is 45. TP2 I will let ride.

good

this was a classic test, but what kind of quality was it and why?

any takers
not sure on that one, the way I read it was that it tested the top of the Asia range. Yesterday there was a breakout in Asia trading, in the morning it retraced that & tested the top of the Asia range pre the breakout before heading north.

On your options post, that info can be useful. Sometimes the options can just act as a speed bump to a move, but they can also trigger decent retracement. Personally I wouldn't look to enter a position based on a option barrier, but depending on PA reaction it might lead me to close a position or at least move my S/L tighter

That is not for real, those numbers don't look right at the bottom - must be a demo account otherwise you would have been margin called. not sure how your margin requirement is only 1150 for all those positions either..
