{quote} It sounds pretty harsh to call people gamblers who for example start trading with smaller accounts and smaller positions. Being a gambler is an attitude, not the amount of money somebody has to his or her use. With right MM, even a 100 euro account is tradable - not with a lot of profits of course. If you can hold several positions with -300 or even - 800 pips that is ok, but for most people it just will not work out. I would not advise that to people who start trading, only people who know what they are doing and have plenty of money to...

Why do you misunderstand me?
People who have smaller accounts and smaller positions (e.g. micro) seems okay.
Investors can't trade with a 100.-$ account 0.1 lot or 0.01 lots. If traders do so they are gamblers.
If a trader aren't able to cover his losses he's a gambler. You could also go in a casino. It's not, much a difference.
I won't waste my time in financial involving loss products. So it's crazy to gamble with a leverage 1:400 on 100.-$ - 1'000.- Accounts.
The most unrisky trading concept might be in a management method like: "take 10'000.-$ and trade 0.01 lot sizes".
If you have 100.-$ don't trade not even micro.
If 95% of all traders should be undercapitalized, if so brokers could give a ringing laugh.

Ok, it just sounded like anything than trading with a large account was gambling. Of course it depends on the position size that has to be fitting to the account.

Many of my indish friends have deposits around 200.-$ - 500.-$ accounts. It's okay when trading "micro-micro".
(Moreover I have nothing against gamblers. If they like to trade with higher risk, why not? It's a matter of risk tolerance but what they do is then "gambling" & not trading!).

For me it is to risky to add Long


if negative, than it will go up
if neutral news, than maybe will try to correct today's 120 pip movement. We will see who will be on market with more power.
if positive, than more down.

Instead I have added a couple of Shorts again:

and banked others Shorts from those range.

That's the question,...retracement or revearsal. I tend to expect it's more a retracement.
If not I can counterbalance the EURUSD losses with a bundle of EURGBP, EURJPY, GBPUSD or so.

Oh yes, going out of the market and stay on the sideline. Why not! Man forges his own destiny.

Hi Forex Cube, any idea for the EUR/USD. Where can we play long. I have a short position in the loss. Thanks.
Monthly could go further down. Despite all that I'm long. I plan my trades & trade my plan.
The main problem is that EURJPY & GBPUSD could go further down, too. If so it could be a strong impact on EURUSD for more downside movements.
Let's see next week. (See also #313).
