A potential 150 pips in 1.5 hours on EUR/JPY. Not too shabby. Oh, and the SL could have been about 26 pips. So I guess that's around a 1:6 R/R.

Not bad at all. So Tony your heads or tails story should go like this... Would you play heads or tails if whenever you win I give you $1200 and whenever you lose you give me $200? haha

yeah i know same here but i feel like that's very easy to hit in practically all trades! any reason why you prefer that over maybe a 10?

Okay guys, EU SL set @ +100. It was a good day for making pips

Time for bed.

Can we discuss MM for this method tomorrow? I need help, my current MM is not cutting the mustard...

Cheers

So I was still pondering over your very tight stop losses and... Tony, you are a genius.. i totally know why you take 5 SL over a looser SL for particular news like ecb... wow that's just crazy RR; hope you don't drown in your wads of cash tonight!

But, with so many failed attempts it still works out to 30 pips...?

Anyway, everyone has there own strategy.

I did too many attempts and almost went break-even. I have a small profit. It's a very dangerous behavior I have... did you see all those attempts, it's sickening.

EU Long still open, SL @ +103...Not much movement there, possibly waiting for this afternoon?

What do you think, should I close the trade prior to news to ensure I get the pips and to avoid slippage? I am a bit conflicted as to what to do with this open trade. Price is 25 pips away from my SL at the moment, but it is still a long way to go till news time so that could change quite a bit...

I know Tech is nothing to do here, but UJ is bulish from last three days, but my concern is it is just sitting under the resistance. But as per rules we always buy good luck to u..

Eu soars above 1.39. Lucky them who still hold their position since last night. Just need to maintain their stoploss wisely. Hopefully euro keep climbing until minutes before NFP
Tony, do you still hold your position since last night or already TP?
