{quote} UJ short + XAU short almost wiped my account. I had 3 other accounts, I transfered x3 account balance just to save the account. Lesson learned, I'll stick to daytrading EU edit: funny thing is that I had 140 trades / 1 day / %32 return yesterday before UJ + XAU edit2: greed + overconfidence

Same here, I lose control of my account every time I have more than one pair at the same time. I get distracted or become uncomfortable. Don't worry you can get all of it back, volatility is approaching

{quote} world reset was energy related talked about a few years ago. in it more heavy industrial industry will go to places with cheaper energy. that will boost gdp jobs etc in places with stable government, workforce, and infrastructure. such as north america. energy is the most expensive cost in heavy industrial industry. places with cheap labor such as china can not compete w/o government subsidies on energy. see china's steel industry since. in the reset the u.s would become more energy independent. the usd declined after the gold standard was...
China has to evolve its economy, rather than being the haven for cheap "crap" production. There is in my view higher quality production being accomplished under the direct supervision of western industry. they've created a base now they have to work with it. They will continue to have a cost advantage over more mature economies such as in the EU due to the nature of the "social" status of those countries (and the costs associated). European tourism will supplant the decline of Chinese tourism with internal EU tourism due to the unfavourable situation in north/central Africa, Turkey etc.
my 2 cents
don't get in love with pairs ... up or down is the same pip value

See I have absolutely no reason to stop this trade now.
I have locked in profit on the upper red line.
The green line is where I went short, the lower red line is target. (200 pips@ $10.00 per pip)

In other words, I win, or I win more, whatever way it goes.

ok thanks for the chart and a few questions:

-where was you stop before being locked in, what was R:R(you usally win, or do you have a great R:R?
-so in 10 hours no matter what happens you will get out of the trade or will you trail you stop further? (a wick is currently forming)
-i still dont see how did you determine max 36 hours when you entered the trade

thanks

If it goes bad, I win $540, if it reaches target, I win $2,000.
It's that simple.

Your last question first, tomorrow (in 12-13 hours from now I have to travel for the rest of the week, but yesterday I found out how to get the Oanda fxtrade on my Kindle Fire HDX so that eliminates the 36 hour option.)

About the stop, I had a close one since I saw clearly resistance when I entered.
I entered @ 118.69, and the highest point was 118.85, I had a stop @ 119.04 so a $350 risk.

Your other question about R:R, loss could be 35 pips, target was 200 pips.
