A/U it did make +10 before retrace, if it drops below 04-00 low I might look for modest 60 daily range, lets see.

A = 04-00 candle
x = modest 60 range, which will be adjust accordingly

I meant to say, Cable 04-00 range was 25 and A/U was 22, both ideal for countering. But I will concentrate on A/U if it drops

no problem SB, I hope you can see how I think? It is better and more certain to get +5 then hope for more. I say this in a nice constructive way. Forget about the guys who preach money management etc it is how you deal with a losing trade which matters.

I totally agree ... i will manage it in a very safe way ... will counter trade with bigger lot size if A/U break the low ( but still reasonable lot size compare with my bankroll)

Sometimes we have to manually enter a trade, like yesterday when Cable open was very close to the 04-00 low. I actually opened A/U manually today but I had a reason lol, Cable was automatic.

Got 3 out of 3 wins on accumulator so far. Next on Paris St G tomorrow might lay that off. Edit: Celtic v Inter on Saturday that should see some goals. Need 2.5 + goals in the match.

S/L strategy is a tough one you either choose a fixed amount or use obvious support/resistance levels.

Billy's thoughts?

Hi , you just reminded me about answering the stop loss post.
On paper it is wise to have a stop loss just in case you wipe out your account... BUT... in reality we should not lose so we do not need a stop loss. Normal trading method if daily or 4 hour is used, set stops at either end of the candle like below

Using the above method has many faults, as then you are looking at money management regarding wins versus losses AND take profit...
and you all know what I do ​ Trade A fails so counter at trade B, leave trade A open and add to winning trade, it works and I have billions of stats to back me up. (ok not billions) but you need legitimate entries, Daily High/Low or a decent 4 hour candle like 04-00 Asian session High/Low not MAs or resistance/support. Check all the stats for years and years and you will see. E/J is bad on the 04-00 break lol.
