USD/CAD entry — Hey Dan, What's your opinion on entry for USD/CAD? I will most likely enter on a test of 1.0650, I'm assuming you would wait for a bounce off of this area and then look to go short at 1.6000?? How do you differentiate between a ...

Yeah I think the only solution to the pip counting would be to just count your pips as if they were for a full 10% position. So, if you close 1/2 of your position at 100 pips that is 50 pips of a full position. If you close 3/4 it would be 75 pips, ...

Hey Karla, Some impressive results! Did you double your risk when you started trading two positions? or did you split your risk between the two? I was initially confused at how many pips you were picking up, and then realized you were counting the ...

Thanks for the help Frank, I appreciate it. The hosted server idea seems like a viable option. I would prefer to have it available on the broker hosted trading platform, I just feel it would be more secure - less apt to crash or do something wierd. ...

Let me rephrase. The ideological practice of considering only two possible (and completely opposite) ways of organizing a society has fallen out of fashion. I don't mean the events of the cold war... sure Russia and the US (read:capitalism and ...

Two options..... ? that is a ridiculous statement. The cold war is over, by the way. (no offence intended)

No fill — I missed the fill by 1 pip. I am happy though because my other option was to buy at 1.5200 and that would have whipped me out for a small loss. I am getting better at reading the volatility I think. Had the idea right, but the market ...

The Euro Bull — On the four hour chart we are now making higher highs and lower lows, and we have broken the descending trendline from the last posted charts. We have fallen back below the trendline but the higher high has got me interested to ...

Other Trades — For anyone interested, I have taken a longer term position in EUR/CAD. I am long from 1.5200 with a stop loss at 1.4890 (under the current swing low). This was an excellent place for a pullback. On a weekly basis we are making ...

Keep up the good work! I'll be following along

I'm back — Well life has certainly kept me busy for the last while. No time for posting. I am getting sick of watching the market fall, and I believe we have seen the bottom of the USD buying frenzy for a while. I will try to be on here more ...

Well, that couldn't have gone worse. Haha. Oh well, on to the next trade. Ouch! Stopped out for 100 pip loss. Trades Taken: 23 Winners: 9 Losers: 14 P/L: +230 Win percentage: 39% Thoughts: The good the bad and the ugly.

Ah trade — AH trade has been triggered. Stoploss is still at 1.5660 (I trail in 10 pip increments). Trade sitting at -6 right now, we will see what happens.
- static replied Jul 25, 2008
Nope. You take it on the chin and look for a new opportunity to get in. This may mean missing a move but there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. If you start jumping in with an AH and violating the rules, you will get whipsawed to ...

The market looks lie it may be bottoming in the low 1.5600s. The volatility has picked up and my chart is showing a small bullish pinbar right on the 50% retrace of the last move up. It seems I bought a little high, but it is a tradeoff. I should ...

Ouch! Stopped out for 100 pip loss. Trades Taken: 22 Winners: 9 Losers: 13 P/L: +330 Win percentage: 41% Thoughts: I didn't think it would drop so hard. I am now out for a while to see what will happen. Buying now would be a revenge trade but I will ...

Well, I should have stuck with my original plan. Instead of chasing a trade in this case I RAN AWAY FROM ONE!! haha. Would have been sitting with a decent trade right now, 111 pips in the black. Changing orders when price gets close is no different ...

Given the steep drop, and the price action, this market seems heavier. I don't think it will bottom at 1.5800 exactly, looks like a spike down is due before continuing up. Therefore, I have changed my order to 1.5750 with a 100 pip TSL. Right now in ...

Well. Since last week was so profitable lets do it again this week!! The only real good deal I can see for the week is to get in at 1.5800. I could line up some fibs and talk about the inconsequential 4HR trendline, but to justify my order at 1.5800 ...
