hoss replied Sep 15, 2008That's a little discouraging. It makes no sense that we would get different quotes off of the same platform. But, at the end of the day, they are a bucketshop. So, who knows what they are up to.

hoss replied Sep 11, 2008Thanks, Scott. I may have been right this time, but may not be the next time. I've got some good experience with price action and simply made a judgment call, but I think people may be better off in the long run letting these trades take their ...

hoss replied Sep 11, 2008Ha. Not defensive at all. Hope I didn't come across that way. Yeah, big game this weekend! USC-OSU Saturday night. Can't wait to watch that one!

hoss replied Sep 11, 2008Yes, I normally let them run their course, too. I just pay attention a little more to trades where stops fall around that .00 mark. It will usually either blow right through it like it did on the euro yesterday, or just stop short and reverse as it ...

hoss replied Sep 11, 2008I cheated and closed the UJ trade manually a few pips early as I didn't like my TP sitting on a .00 level. It worked out anyway as I was able to get my full 2.8% out of it. I must have put a fraction more on the trade than I needed to get out a few ...

hoss replied Sep 10, 2008It looks as though there will be no euro trade for this evening as we have passed the weekly average threshold. So, we now just move the stop to BE and let this thing take its course? Or will you close it out at midnight anyway?

hoss replied Sep 10, 2008Sounds good. It's heading south as we speak. One more thing, just to confirm, if there is a new eur trade at 00:00, you close that one whether it is negative or positive and set the new orders up?

hoss replied Sep 10, 2008Yes, but I don't use the pipettes or whatever they are called so my oanda platform shows 1.4012.

hoss replied Sep 10, 20081.4012 was hit around 11:30. Does that mean you would put it in now or wait until it hits it again?

hoss replied Sep 10, 2008blueace, will you move your stop to BE once this has hit the half way point? or do you let this thing ride out?

hoss replied Sep 10, 2008True. Discipline will also be watching the trade try and break 1.4000 to get to our TP!

hoss replied Sep 10, 2008Yeah, I'm pretty unemotional about it. It's what allows me to laugh. I know that losses are the only way to get to the winners.
