I do much better with no stop loss and working like this... take 15 pips profit get out if I lose 10 pips start over Now it would seem like all I need to do is have more winners than looser.... The problem is when you never hit the 10 or 15 mark for hours..... Your stuck watching the screen.... Any suggestions? Anyone else trade like this?
One of the strangest thing we do is watch the chart tick for tick. If you really think about it, tick watching on any tf other then the tick chart will lead to some very bad trades. Just think about it. If you trade the h4 and you are placing orders inside of an open H4 tf, then you aren't trading the H4. EU has hit a pretty flat price action here. So one would guess this will continue to Asia open. I am more interested in USD.CAD and USD/JPY which EUR/USD is controlling tick for tick.

USD-index continues to pull back from multi-year highs hit earlier today. FOMC minutes say most participants thought reference to 'patience' indicated FOMC was unlikely to begin normalisation for at least the next couple of meetings. FOMC minutes say Fed officials saw rate rise unlikely before April

{quote} lol what? Why not just set a stop at 10 pips and a limit and 15 and walk away...
I would guess because the poster believes that his broker will STOP HUNT his order if he makes it visible. Although that theory is a "bone of contention" I would like to know if his 10 pips stop gets hit as he watches, will he open another BUY right away or will he reverse his trade.

Of UJ and U/CAD I would say thata UJ has the strongest potential to form the cup and handle after the drop caused by FOMC. On the 5M UJ has closed crossed the first high created after the FOMC drop (119.186) and since closing above it, it has hoovered nicely around it. Unless it closes under the candle which closed above 119.186 i would not give up on the UJ buy.USD/CAD is favoring yet another wave down, as on the 5m and 1m has not been able to close across 1.1830 Should the bid closes across that price I would long USD/CAD. Until then either short it or stay neutral.

A close under 1.18342 on the 5m chart would be the perfect time to sell, as it would of engulfed the last engulf caused by the sma10. Also daily pivots are rather tight today, less then 35 pips between them, so massive breakout seems to be unlikely today.

Let us see if this open candle on EU will close under 11.18342 which would make it a good sell.

That is the key difference with wagering on say "support or resistance" and sticking to the rules and trading the TF you are watching. Simply touching a price isn't good enough, as that would be considered a "fake" if it fills you and goes against you. Yet, for it to be a fake if you follow the rules of tf trading would be take the long when it closes across it, and the candle which you entered ( if it is a buy candle), then the low would be your sl ONLY if the price closes under it.

{quote} I have hedged them as i was running out of margin/money! I might add some more equity to get hedges clear but people suggested not to do so! I dont know! What to do!
Keep this account hedge .... trade from left equity .... sooner or later ... we are to go to 1.37 .... once we are completed with this big bear .... may be 6 or 9 months .... once we start to get back .... close sells .... then wait for 1.37 and there will be huge profit .... matter is .... can u wait for this?? Will u trade on low volume for minimum risk with left equity ..... if u make loss in more trades u may get ur account empty .....If you dont have any problem with money ...... make a new account and still do what I said with hedged account (expect trading left equity coz u will be trading in new account) ....Do no hold a position for more than 100 pips .... forex is managment of risk against reward ...
