I'm not using stop losses. I prefer to open after some pips against a hedging position... quite handy.

Got this from Diff thread here on FF



If you are good enough to get in and out of a hedge at just the perfect time. Then you are good enough that you shouldnt have to ever hedge......


did you consider this? when you enter a hedge, you are entering a trade you never wanted to..... there is no "setup" or "entry".... it is desperation....


Keep hedging as you are and you will end up cutting hedges for a living.

{quote} Well as long as 1.053x hold in daily/weekly, the 1.066x to 1.082x play is wide open for the FED meeting. A clean break [seriously doubt] before will open clean sweep in weekly and unlock parity again with the confirmation of FED on hikes. sisse

Right on time with London going home 1.053x tested. Crunching time for the euro until the close. sisse
After a very active day in the euro, 1.053x managed to held the roll. Euro bears look as solid as ever and the tiny breach to the low of the 1.050x handle only confirms that the leg to parity is around the corner.

Nothing new in the euro. Same levels, same outlook, same plays...

So nobody is using it that way? What's the matter? Should I rethink it?

ok, I admit: I use the guaranteed stop losses for over weekend positions.

well, I'm quite new to the fx market, had quite good experience with stock hedges. as they say, there is always a buyer and at the same time a seller, the perspective of time is where they disagree.

but ok, i will try to use stop losses.

I'll never be ignorant about your tips here ---

if your mentally unable to take a loss, trading is not your thing. even a hedge at some point needs to be closed. its just another trade robing your effort and creating stress.

I gave up hedging a long time ago. When I made the decision, I thought I took one step more to have a chance ^^

well, I close all my hedges quite early and make extra pips (as my initial strategy comes clearer). I usually don't have to hedge the whole size or if the short time counter trend is clear you can hedge double size. It's just more flexible.

The stress factor should not be neglected. Agree, stop losses are less stressful.

After swap closes stopped it seems that everything has finally calmed down with this pair. Where do you think we're headed from here in the short run? I wouldn't be entirely surprised if another big drop happened in the asian session, but I closed my shorts so I wasn't charged any swaps and am hesitant to open a new positions.

im unsure too i have just closed my 220 pips, but don't know whether to re enter or stay out until the morning and see what the market brings at around 07:00am and see what happens over night.
