It's amazing some trading w/o placing stops then worry about it when price turns against the positions .........

Was doing that literally for years...... and it's just a total disaster. Now my trading is more about finding that nice spot to put the SL and relax!
of course I still make mistakes and get a bit groggy every now and then when mr. market slaps me around

Good time of the day guys and girls. Does anyone use Elliott Wave? Do you mind sharing your count for this rise? To me it looks overlapping/choppy. I am confused.
Well, today it was an example of 'Bullish market sentiment' but the trend is still down. Market sentiment is crowd psychology...everyone follows something and not necessarily based on fundamentals.

Dollar is still the strongest currency.

If lets say, market goes up to 1.2000 - tomorrow - b/c some big institutions are purchasing EUROS - still - it doesn't change the fact that the long term trend is down. In another words i would still look to short...The trick here is your entry! This is why intra-day trading is the hardest and brokers loves you.

In a trending environment like today you might want to use Fibo to check where it will bounce etc.. In a ranging market check Pivots!

Anyway, if everyone knew where exactly prices went every day most retail traders would not lose money :-)

Hope this helps.

I didn't go beyond my MM rules, just used manual stops. I hate being the sitting duck waiting for the sweeps. I'd rather watch closely and manual stop. Intraday I use stops, but these were mid-term trades. I am not lamenting the $ loss as much as the lost time and my over-eager positioning.

Bleh, did not see the Yuan devaluation coming (so many factors to account for - this one was not on my radar... another lesson...sigh). The timing of said devaluation could not have been more tricky (for me) vis a vis the last NFP# and the expectation of the next leg down. I expected the short squeeze after NFP to maybe get to 1.112x-1.114xx, but this last peek above 1.12 forced me to close 2 of 3 of my EUR/USD shorts (the oldest and best positioned at 1.124xx from last days of June and an add-on I made post-NFP at 1.10). My remaining position is...
Lots of smart people with money much more then we have, didn't see the devaluation coming either. Don't be too hard on yourself. China is a hot mess.

Maybe your account is not on ECN or one of your accounts who knows.. too many dodgy brokers! Who cares anyway...if you keep making money consistently then they should in theory dump you onto ECN.

I am not sure what exactly you are asking here?
