Hi Pippo,
Just got back in from running up feed for the chickens and had a little time.....Found the old MM Indi that I rigged for money management the last time you and I were trading together..........Take a look at it and I'll post it if you want me to.....I changed the setup to match the one you are using........If you'd rather I didn't post it, that will be fine.........whip

Hi Whip, I am sure the Indy is still in the thread... Of course, you may post it if you wish... I am now of the opinion now that that method of MM was a bit too arbitrary, and that,"situational," changes to position size make more sense. That being said, at the upper grid extremes I think it wise to phase in when buying, at lower extremes, when selling... These extreme locations in the grid are,"situations," in themselves... Another type of," situation,"... Dogs say go, YY says go, but TL says no... I think it sensible in this kind of a situ. to trade at initially 1/3 std. pos. size on channel break and to phase in the remainder if trade shows vitality... Basically, just what we have been doing... Dogs+PC break is a pretty good signal in and of itself......And if a,"situation," happens at one of the extremes??? Probably best to stand aside....... Whip, of course, this is just one man's perspective. Your perspective in this matter is no less authoritative than mine....P...

Brain Drain, AKA, Forex Trading...... A/J with MM lines, a maverick... According to Mr. Fibo, both pairs retraced back to 50% level of big move beginning in mid-April, and ending in mid-Aug. and are still around 38.2 level. Yet, according to Mr. Murrey, A/J is trading at/near range extremes, while A/U is not... Brain Drain....

An E/U redraw has disqualified my S... 3/3 Dogs are down, price is trading below YY, but today's candle was an up candle, albeit retracing... I really can't decide this issue with any degree of confidence so I am going to close trade... The up candle, I really don't like, and in this kind of thin, range bound trading the Dogs are working with a faint scent... Done...

Feel like I would unhappier if it continued up to hit SL, than I would if it reversed and became a winner...

I really don't see any other options, so I'll stay with the EA and see how it turns out since I still have a second Sell Stop still in place

Same thing with E/A... Tough to decide, but today's candle was more Doji-like than clearly up... Still a tough call...
