i just wanna share. i straddled the german IFO on EUR/USD. my trade got stopped out on the way down but at least it hit the opposite trade and made decent pips. how about you guys?

No, i didnt ! , i always trade UK,US News.... but seems that EUR News So COOOL TO TRADE

I had forgotten about news release but when saw charts running I took out my rifle and starting shooting.I shooted 43 pips.I will, post charts in my journal later on today.

Yes, Here's my M1 chart.

This is to everyone to inform them that I've adopted
an I.Q. the square root of Forrest Gump divided by the
square root of Rain Man.....

I recently shorted the EUR and after listless candles
showed a boring tug of war...suddenly the trade
started going my way 10 pips...this strategy has been
working for the past 5 trades(and quite well)....
EXCEPT

I forgot(just tempting fate actually...) a
stoploss...stop losses are like a nice hot fudge
sunday late at night with fresh chocolate chip
cookies...ahhhh

well guess who decided to go on Atkins(of the
brain)....knowing there was a news announcement(the
IBCI)... I went for a quick shower thinking(or not)
well let me resume where I took off....


let's just say 53 pips later against me, I just had to
post my errant and self propageted fiasco...

-man I love trading
(I couldn't stop laughing at my ignorant behaviour)


guess it's time for bed....haha
