Glad I decided to keep my longs over the weekend, otherwise I would have closed @ 149.23.
It is 149.87 as I write this.

How can i forget those 1000 pip one ,,, dragon burned and slapped me left and right.
I got burned, but in a very different way.

I wasn't trading very large back then, but I had a good track record and had a client that found me via these forums. I started trading a $50k account for him not long before that huge drop.

I was selling like a maniac before it (pretty sure those posts are still here on FF).

I caught a HUGE portion of the move, and had turned his account into $500k that day.

Our agreement was that I get 20% of profits. I was just trading it with his login; I hadn't setup the account properly with a broker as a managed account.

I never heard from him after that day.

Lesson learned.

Travis you remember we were just talking weekly SR's right? That 152.14 fib (76.4%) I have doesn't seem too far away from this view...eh? I've always found that 74.6% to be a good mark for bounces/turns. {image}
Yeah, it's not far at all now. If we poke above 150, I may close.

Just watching the 1min chart (call me crazy, but I've been taking 90% of my trades this week from it), I can't justify closing yet...

And took another long actually thanks to you @ 148.55 after your post about 23.6% monthly fib.

THANKS!

Don't know how many you got on right now but unless you expect it to drop over the weekend, I'd bank a few of my weakest ones and keep the strongest ones running. Always have time on market open to decide what to do.

Had my stops not been hit, I'd be holding this weekend me thinks. But I just can't open any up here with an hour left...lol

I love the fact that people benefit from the thread in this way. You didn't mooch anything, you just realized something you hadn't seen yet and took action on it.

That's how this thread should be!

I'm favoring holding everything, but we'll see. I'll be watching closely from here until today's close.

I've only got my iPhone so it's a bit interesting

"I should of held that long today from 146.14" I would of took the rest of the month off and probably the next one and the next one after that, I was risking 3% of my account on that trade, and in doing so, gained 3% off 20 pips. Those are the moves I prefer, as no one can predict a 300+ pip move. But still, kicking ones self here!!

a 950 pip (so far) move in 2 days, dat crazy beast.
