steviet replied Dec 13, 2006Quite easily - I shorted it yesterday but was unlucky to get stopped out by a couple of pips. Otherwise, I'd still be in the trade up 40 pips or so. From my reading of the charts, I would rather go short here than long - sorry, no fancy indicators, ...

steviet replied Dec 13, 2006Well, it's that time of day again. My first surprise when I woke up this morning was that none of my trades had been stopped out even with the tight stops that were placed 10 hours earlier. Unfortunately, my GU short was just stopped out later by a ...

steviet replied Dec 13, 2006That's true, but I'm patient. I have manually backtested the system over 2 years on 5 pairs candle by candle and have averaged just over 6000 pips each year. That's why my target is only 500 pips a month. In fact, closed trades this month I have ...

steviet replied Dec 12, 2006I guess he means return on investment is more accurate - it depends whether you always use the same lot size - you could easily be profitable in pips but not in cash. Kind Regards Steve

steviet replied Dec 12, 2006OK, not a great day as both EU & UCHF were stopped out but thats trading - no problem. The system takes no account of news events so I must grin & bear it when it doesn't go my way. UJ long still in profit and will move the stop loss to profit at ...

steviet replied Dec 9, 2006Hi again Ron, Just to clarify my money management policy. I trade a micro acccount and say I have $1000 there, I would use a margin of $20 (2%) on each of the 5 pairs (total 10%) at 1:100 leverage, meaning my stop loss in theory would be approx 100 ...
