AceOfTrades replied May 11, 2009thats true but i meant that if the conditions are like this for a while as they have been for the last 7.5 hours then chances are it probably wont get better. it might get better but the probability is against you. Just my opinion as i only have ...

AceOfTrades replied May 11, 2009I think its important to recognize choppy conditions and not trade them. Ive noticed since starting this method that over trading on choppy days can really kill your profits. Best to leash yourself from "needing" to trade and wait for nice trending ...

AceOfTrades replied May 8, 2009i think its cause of the NFP today, i have had some trouble today also, but i also have a 7pip SL and my TPs vary between 15 and 40 depending on the nearest pivot point so i can also sustain many losses

AceOfTrades replied May 6, 2009any reason why some of you trade GU and EU at the same time? both have a reasonable correlation, aren't you just double exposing yourselves to the same price movement?

AceOfTrades replied May 6, 2009got out at break even too, looks like there is strong resistance based on the last candle's tail.
