{quote} Actually, it's worth reading 'he who shall not be named' just to see the actual power of that concept. I've heard it said that proper money management is the only true holy grail in this business. But there is one more thing about the trading style of 'he who shall not be named' , which was that he didn't trade with no stops indiscriminately. He left shorts running, not longs, because of his fundamental view, which also has something to do with it.
Good point, and to whit- he doesn't hold a fundamental view that even the most novice trader wouldn't realize. No secret that EU is weak, and would continue to be so in the foreseeable future.

Piggy backing onto MAXDOOM's point, with proper money management (and the right fundamental view)- one can transcend the 4 decimal point thinking into the 2 decimal point thinking.

Good morning: I hope good trades to all:

If support holds, maybe this will head back up and retest the top today, yes?

Good Trading Friends!

{quote} Nice Comment, Do you still have the EU sells open? any target?
no flat on EU atm was waiting for the retrace to pivot not quite got there - I may have missed the opp now, but better to have banked the previous shorts than watch them erode

{quote} Thanks Edyraper, i missed gators earlier post. I don't have any positions open at the moment. Still deciding my next move
and if 0877/85 dont hold support guess what i would do.. well since i am looking for 1086 untouched at the time.. its about 200 pips.. so i could give a amount comfortable losing. depending on risk tolerance and %. a 20 pip stop at 1% risk.. is a potential loss of 1% or a potential gain of 10%... the same % at 10 pips is still a 1% potential loss.. or a 20% potential gain. i lost 4 of these with tight stop below 0611 (most with be +gain)... i won 3 on the way to 0975 + (average 0575ish i think). (at 5 pips 40%)

Just building up momentum to head back to the top I imagine. eu may be weak, but it is showing a little life here lately that I would not be betting against too much...
