{quote} Is it bcos my buy and sell order are too close to each other? I set buy and sell 10pips above and below de price

no, that's not it. it's because your sl was e.g.: 10 or 15 pips and as soon as the order took place the spread was like 20 pips... so you're in an instant loss. that's why i entered before the news..... NFP can not be entered after news.

Count your blessings, David. My order was filled with a SL 16 and then promptly taken out with that big spread by 2 pips. It's quite a gut shot to then have to watch the price take off without you.

Guys, please note that NFP is NOT part of the list on my 1st rules page. There's a different way to trade it, just like I did today. It's because of the huge spreads. This week I will add-on info for NFP on the rules page. Have a good week end.

1 page rules will also be simplified.

Normally, there are no beneficial news to trade this week. There will probably be only one trade place:

Employment Change

Hi Tony.

interesting writing.

question please,

A Limit-buy or Limit-sell has to be place 15 seconds before the news comes out. Settings: LB 7 pips above price, LS 7 pips below price.

All with a 7 pips STOP-LOSS MAXIMUM. Major news (to be updated) will require a 15 pips STOP-LOSS


is it Buy Stop and Sell Stop you mean?

These are next week's money makers:

German ZEW Economic Sentiment How to trade: MARKET BUY ORDER 2 MINUTES BEFORE NEWS WITH 10 PIPS SL / ​TP 50 PIPS

Claimant Count Change How to trade: MARKET BUY ORDER 2 MINUTES BEFORE NEWS WITH 17 PIPS SL / ​TP 50 PIPS

RETRACT SL TO 0 SL / BE A FEW SECONDS AFTER GOING INTO PROFIT

Trade at your own risk, market could go in an opposite way.
