{quote} What's the target you have in mind? I happen to have opened a short around 1338, I'm looking for 125. Is that too conservative?
I want to see 1230/10 initially... but any target that secures you profit you are happy with it good. I tend to leave some on for the ride...

{quote} you know that is a good question especially for this trade... I don't normally trade off the hip, I like to plan my entries in advance I find it much more profitable. But sometimes I will enter at the level no matter what the PA - ie: I set a pending, other times I watch the PA and make a decision based on what I see. I did not set a pending in this case because it may have run straight through and the gap above to next level is too large and we have already pulled up from lows with momentum. In this case if you refer back to my earlier...
Thanks for your response, I think that's similar to how I enter trades but just with this strong move up, Im not soo brave haha.

It looks like the retracement on the EUR/USD might last a little longer after all. I think it will likely retest the 1.1460 level, which from support turned into resistance. That said, there's no indication that the bearish trend is over, so retracement or not, the pair will likely continue dropping.

Nice; I hope it keeps on going indeed for a longer than intended ride; those rides are the best. Maybe I'll also leave a position open and put my stop to breakeven after some partial profits.

{quote} yes, but u dont and didnt know at the time, it was a low for such a larger # like 3993. 3993 was to large of a chunk. start a off smaller, more achievable reference.. like now, 1479/80 may be trying setting up.. and if so, 1192/93 may be needed. regardless if its bearish or bullish.. it likes to return.. the last bear target in the way down was 1280.7,, we overshot the min..
missed 1192/96 on the drop. low was/is 1223 so it atm was missed by 30ish pips.

it still hasn't made it back to norm in the red box in chart. norm is below 1209, a place where larger forces can take over. ... since 3993 most if these st bullish targets, to a place like 1492, have failed.. 1479/80 are not valid anymore, in the quoted post. 1492 is valid.. and most times before, we would have went to 1196 before the HH (never 100 %).. and sometimes after, like anytime now, 1196 would happen most times before 1492. the atm high 1345 is 1/4 of the way after b/o to 1492..

that spike above 1276 last h hit my sl on my adds

the goal is to make your trading profitable and repeatable, once you get there then you take the setups as they come without fear because you know on average you will be profitable.

Not sure if you missed ...

There should be plenty of "early birds/bears" around these levels (1.134x/5x) to 1.120xx and the lows. I would be surprise if we dont test the lows one more time before the M roll...

Thanks, Iv been trading now for about a year an a half with a small live account. I have been profitable but still trying to fine tune my strategy. I am close to quadrupling my account now.

if you are quadrupling your account that means you are far over your optimal leverage which is BAD.

I wouldn't think so. That's over a year and a half to 2 years.

A couple of percent profit a week can easily quadruple an account over a year and a half. With a 1:2 RR strategy that means acceptable risk (0,5 - 1%). No way is that excessive.
