I book profits for add-on and keep the short from 1.400 going next year.

For equities likely because of Oil price bounce yesterday or could be short coverings year end profit takings. They are not moving in the same direction but USD weakness across the board XXXUSD, USDXXX and XXXJPY. As for Gold is more political than the actual physical value.

Quoting Pip-Miner
{quote} I wish you all the best. You have an interesting approach to trading, especially around not having a stop loss or tp. The only time I personally take that approach is using raw price action and acceleration on a continuation trend with no indicators and pure impulse.
Pip-Miner, thank you for your reply. Well, yeah, basically I think I would like to look at swings (not candlestick patterns - I am not good at them and I don't believe there is much to be gained from looking at them in m5) and look for long-term trends, getting in early and staying as much as I can.

Re: use of SLs and TPs, I don't use them as the guidances in "in-trade" decision making. However, I use the SL, when I enter the position. For instance, today I bought the pair at 1.09133 and set the SL at 1.08709. The I used the position size calculator to calculate the position size. (I have allocated 1.5% as a potential risk being triggered by the SL). So, I have the initial SL. However, I am not sure that I really want to SLs, while going through the trade life. I think, it may impact too greatly the decision-making. I am inclined to believe that traders should be guided by the chart, not their own rationale.

As to TPs, I would like close the deal, whenever the chart moves against me. Or I can lock my position before the diverse move and see whether the trend really changes.

I am a newbie, but I have swinged through numerous medium-term set-ups, using Forex Tester and it looks like it kinda should be working.

I would also like to use fibs a lot.

What's your strategy, Pip-Miner?
