elizo replied Sep 28, 2009Morning all, this is a very promising and important week for me. Let's see how it goes. Enox, I know it's easy to say now, but you saw a big runner of around 150 pips from high to low. You almost had no stalling and you see a continuation: big risk. ...

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009My trades for the day, I did not take the bullish big one at the end... just relaxing. 1.- Playing #2 for BE... no worries. 2.- Same, for a -2. Could be at BE, but... 3.- Broadly commented, my mystake was not to exit at 47-48... +28.5 pips Nice ...

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009Thanks for your comments, Paul, always so useful. Yes indeed, there is a fundamental part here which is economic efficiency vs global efficiency. Holding it perfectly could be great but you could spend too much mental stamina, especially for us ...

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009Ok... following Paul's help (thanks very much indeed) I agreed with setting my SL above the Mini FCR formed at 56. My sl at 58.5. Got busted for 28.5. But I was monitoring carefully everything and I detected a lower mini FCR that already gave me a ...

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009Out at 58.5 +28.5 I am a little bit angry with myself and I will post a chart to explain in a few minutes.

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009Paul... I was tempted to TP around 30s... then to move SL to 50... Ok, I am in and f... the pips. I am gonna wait for a proper retrace, then formation of a new FCR, then wanna check what's going on... But I am eating my nails...

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009You are my hero. I got out for -2, instead of -10 or runner, as I planned (in at 90, hard sl moved at 80). I did not stick to the plan and bailed out manually, so... I pay the toll.

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009I'm still in. My SL moved to 87. Don't mind losing -13 if I can catch a runner (as it will be if it breaks 63). Agreed that no momentum here, though.

elizo replied Sep 25, 2009Hey... I am the master of chickens, so no worries, wellcome to the farm. Now seriously, I think this is a collateral effect of lack of experience. Once you are used to see runners (yesterday I jumped off the big one at +50) and not afraid of ...

elizo replied Sep 24, 2009From now onwards, my deals for the day, if they help someone: 1.- Long at 31 before London open... kept it really well, had to get out for meetings. Set a hard TP at 68, arrived 67.2 and came back... after watching the whole stuff and some ...

elizo replied Sep 24, 2009Sure, no continuation at all, and it makes sense that taking the reversal would have a higher probability of success based on profittaking... taking any continuation now is suicidal!!! It's bittersweet here: I didn't play well because of lack of ...

elizo replied Sep 24, 2009To Feline and all the very newbies (I am still a newbie)... Looks funny, but this is exactly what FX told me replying my first post here just 23 days ago. I assure you that after reading and studying, looks like 23 years ago. Reading this whole ...

elizo replied Sep 24, 2009Hi FX and the others, just a brief question if I can. After such a runner we have seen a new couple of FCRs are formed very next to each other.We'll take the higher one as the valid, since both are really near... Now, you mentioned yesterday that ...

elizo replied Sep 24, 2009Feline, with all respect and trying to help. For what it worths, I spent 3-4 weeks reading the whole thread. From the page 120 onwards I was reading the thread and reading the new posts people were writing here. I strongly recommend you to read the ...

elizo replied Sep 24, 2009This trade was this way: I entered short at 83.8 at 15.06 CET... deal was in my favor an with positive R/R... moved SL at BE once PA defined a new FCR at 80... Then, if "data" moves the market against me, I am out at BE... it's a free ride... ...
