Clive - It's been somewhat of a no-brainer whilst under your 100 lwma.

Bit of a risky pre-news trade there 2:1 RR profit target sometimes ends up being just right.

Here's a frustrating to-the-pip whipsaw of my SL at break even, before rocketing in the right direction, just for contrast.

And top top it off, a whipsaw of my SL for a loss earlier on.

Not your fault. Bad luck This strategy is random like coin throw or thousands strategies all others no one strategy can say where its going. There is no strategy which will give you 60% accuracy, because that would be holy grall ; ) so if 40% loosing ( 40 dollars lost ) 60% winning ( 60 dollars wins ) = 20 $ dollars wins. <= That strategy not exists ;-)
This is forex. ^^ Only luck

That didn't look like a terrible trade to me. It was a bit of bad luck that it didn't continue to go your way. However, it looks to me like you would have been in well over 3 pips of profit at some point in that trade. Clive moves his stop loss to break even once in 3 pips profit. That would have protected you from a loss in this case.

Clive also goes in with 10+ Lots. That is not possible for all of us, so to move to BE at 3pip in plus would be sensless for us, because we just would get far too less profit.

That's quite a position; 10+ traditional lots, or £10+/pip spread betting?

10 Lots are £100/pip.
1 Lot - £10
0.1 Lot - £1

Minus spread and kommision.

Hi GodsClown, spread betting is something that UK residents can do and the lots don't equate the same way as in traditional forex.
It depends on the broker, one example is FXCM: a spreadbetting lot is 1,000 units. A forex lot is 100,000.

Not just UK residents can do that, everyone in the Eu can do it with the right broker, so there is also a 10,000 unit.

Well this does seem to be going off at a tangent.
I'm still not entirely sure that we're on the same song sheet (account currencies, crosses etc) but from your first reply, I can assume that he is trading over £100 / pip on this strategy.
In which case, I doff my hat to you, Mr Packham!
