{quote} yes thats happened a lot in the past but my tradings getting better and generally I look for retraces to S/Rs and PP to eliminate the -30 pip happening, then I place a tight stop. Instead of a stop I'll hedge the trade sometimes but you can really get yourself into a lot of trouble hedging, it can ad multiple levels of decision making into a trade..... If you do find yourself down 30 pips and you don't want to exit the trade you just got a bit of work ahead LOL
​if you make 30 a day consistently - your looking at 20% a month - and also a lot of job offers and money being thrown at you... 150k a year min just of a salary

Yep that's right, all though I've heard it for years only recently did I truly understand the term 'Consistent Profits' and maybe one day I could go and work for a trading house, that or become a cat walk supermodel

Right so your not making pips daily just to clarify your trying too - makes sense now.

I'm not bullshitting you, since the 13th of this month I've totally changed my outlook on FX trading and attempting to make 30 pips per session, it may be one trade or two or three but dedicated to making consistent profits, it's not easy and I've stuffed around a lot in FX but there has to be a reward for all the time spent trading.....

I'm just telling you, if you make 30 pips a day - youll have more money than you've thought of, end of - and theres a reason for that, its extremely hard/more or less impossible... 20% a month is more than achievable with high levels of risk... but then that's another situation

I hear what your saying Don and I'll give you an update in 2 months, right now I've added up pips made since the 13th = 256 and increased my account by 240%

The decision to attempt 30 pips a day was made last week so sorry if I mislead anyone and this week so far Monday 38.8 and Tuesday 40.30, this is included in the 256 pips

That being said. from a Monthly Perspective, if we do clear the buck forty five area, it seems like a pretty clear shot to 1.48.

Uh huh.

But if a somebody has to hedge a trade to get out of trouble then surely the results cannot be there on a daily basis as a credible system that is at the level which we all play at here with our high spread costs for the most part.

1. You have a system that makes 30 pips cool.

2 You have to hedge to get out of a bad trade.

Summary the point of entry then was not correct if you have to hedge and when you un hedge the trade position your now taking has more scope to place you at an even greater loss as your un hedging to what - another 30 pips a day system - So if the 30 pips a days system was working you would not need to hedge.

Winner all round is the broker of course.

240% should read 140%
