Shorts filled @ 1670 & 1649 Hearing a lot of this and that. You don't have to be sisse to know what QE does to a currency value....
Closed 1649 at the LL for ~160 pips

1670 still open....1209 looks like a good tp- currently well over 200 pips profit, locked in 100

1209 is a 61.8 fib, whereas 1670 was a mid ....I'd be cautious of a big bull movement off it (all this on big chart, fib from very top to very bottom)

Coming up on a good intraweek scalping range below 1227

{quote} Got it up and running, its a bit weird, it shows a drawdown even though I have over 100 winning scalps in a row, I don't really have losers in this strategy, (maybe 1 in 500 trades or so) so not sure how it calculates that. I run it fairly conservatively, 10 pips or so a trade, 20-25 a day, no losses so not sure how it calculates that. Probably the wrong thread for this.
If your trades goes negative and than closed positive it shows your drawdown during those negative periods

{quote} They go negative to start with, it is called spread, surely that can't be it. I tend to close them at BE or just above if I got my entry wrong, for one day it shows a drawdown, but not for the other 3, did 300-odd pips a day on all of those. Had 107 trades in 4 days, 68 long, 39 short, all winners, averaging 10 pips a trade, 1,000 pips in 4 days, no losses. In my book that is zero DD. Send a message to them, no answer yet.
I did not mean spread. Let us say you have 2 pips spread at the beginning. But during trade lets say price did go 10 pips against you and than you closed that trade for 10 pips positive, what is your equity drawdown during price at -10 pips?

Target for tomorrow 1390, bulls are doing a good job. I will have pending shorts on the way down.
And done...maybe 1360-90 will give a chance for some long scalps. But let the price settle down first.

{quote} I think 5177-90 is now inevitable, but still waiting for GU's collapse...so maybe after EU starts going down again, even if it should be after ECB, I think GU will be a better trade then, because I can see it at 4850, but bears will really need to show some strength there. Unless GU breaks and stays above 5300, I think its heading down soon.
Finally GU did give up. That was a long wait...if it breaks 1.5, bears should be in full control.

{quote} Absolutely. The best spread i had on oanda when I woke up and saw that was about 12 pips. As high as 50 though. Long from .875 btw. Great last few months for me not using FF and just going off of fundamentals lately. Still holding from 1.2490 is my highest on EU. All are protected now and closed more than half of my open trades last week to be safe, tripled a $2000 account in 2 months not too bad with open trades still and $1500 in unrealized gains. Hatch, Gator..thank you for not leaving us and sharing wisdom.
Closed from 1.2490 and all trades down (approx 6 more) to the ones I have open @ 1.1612 and 1.15895. Still short from here but tightening stops to +75ish on the 4 I have left open from lower entries. Made another 20% of account. Been awhile since I've seen a 1.13 usd. Sure seems like parity to me with greek vote coming and an almost assured 2 trillion more being printed now over the next couple of years. Waiting for a retrace to 1.1550+ to reload but will not play any longs on the way up.

are things always so exciting around here? this move must be destroying folks with long term longs. my timing was all messed up today, made 15 pips from a trade that could have made 200 pips.

ECB's rate decision and Draghi's press-conference certainly had an effect on the market. EUR/USD broke below the support at 1.1540 and continued on its way down to break below 1.1400. Next target is likely 1.1300.

Its not like they didn't get enough warnings yesterday, but greed is a strong enemy.

Since 1564 was broken, don't long this anymore, not safe to trade now, unless you use a big SL and small leverage.

QE high or overshoot in QE. 1.167x / 1.172x blind shorts (meaning no time to think about pulling the trigger) shorts to 1.134x/6x area with a strong take profits at 1.143x. ... sisse
1.130x handle taken down and in my books is Game, set and match for bears!!!. A rather very light balance for such a fundamental move. The better than expected QE killed any chances for me to load a decent position.

Very well done to all taking those light and not so light shorts (in the top of my mind, Gator, Kill and Fxtyrant) from 1.167x/5x yesterday.

Euro completing all the possible levels in my Quarterly/M/W/Daily and intraday charts (doesn't happen that often..once every 5 or more years).

After the news and the moves I am changing my short term (daily/weekly) outlook from STRONG SELL to NEUTRAL in the euro. And for mid term (weekly/monthy) from SELL to STRONG SELL.

Sidelined in most markets now until charts settle down across the board.
