Hi again. Funny old day in some ways. I took EJ to start things off on The Dead Zone session. Not a perfect set up but maybe best of a dodgy bunch, I thought. Well, it did bring the bag but I did have to suck up a head-fake first. I bailed on it after that.

I then engaged in a bit of lateral thinking and figured I'd go play with OIL, as the inventories were due that arvo and inevitably shakes the tree through the day, not only the expected after but also before. I got in on a couple of WZ trades but the moves were hardly smooth sailing and once again, I took to the lifeboats.

However, in some kind of monkey-brain maelstrom, I though that I'd look at trying to continue the OIL connection and see how USDCAD was reacting...and had that beaut of a 1-2-3 fall into my lap.

After that, I figured my luck had been well and truly pushed and that was me for the day.

For anyone who knows, I'd rather not have to make a demo to see, if one enters long at 100 with a 1.0, and you want a stop with a counter at 50. Could you set up a sell stop with 2.0, effectively closing the original trade and opening a new one? or do you have to set up a stop and then a short order below it?

I can do it the way you describe first. I don't know how your wonky US regs would deal with it though.

hi bud, i don't quite understand your question but i am a bit thick as they say.
If i had a long i would have a counter short at x and keep them both alive until next trigger. My broker allows that. Or use 2 brokers

A/U was on a very low daily range wednesday, which means its going to go.
I dont have any stats that cover a dodgy US election.
Most times we would have a couple of days with approx 60 points then we get approx 130+, so i stick to that lol

I will have to test it with some pennies, seems to let me do it on a demo,

What I was asking was if I could stop out and enter another trade going the opposite direction only with a sell stop. Instead of having a buy order with it's stop set and then a sell order BELOW the original buy order stop. In the US you have to close original position before enterting next position.

in that case i would say no, The States are are giving you no chance at all. i think you will need 2 brokers or team up with another trader and work together.
