altrader replied Aug 26, 2008hi guys, how have you all done during this large movement down? I just got home. I had a limit sell order at 4690, and so I was able to collect 10pips profit but I missed the big dive down since I was away from my computer. (I don't like to risk as ...

altrader replied Aug 25, 2008very interesting. Thanks for that, I'll take a closer look at Gold. I do have the XAU/USD open along with a crude oil chart while I look to see where currency will go. But I haven't really closely looked at gold charts--usually I just look at the ...

altrader replied Aug 25, 2008Seeing it in percentage form. I didn't realise it was such a big difference. I'm going to look into that. Although having said that I want to figure out currency first and get one thing right at a time lol. But yeah, it's an interesting possibility. ...

altrader replied Aug 25, 2008Thanks dude, I thought of using that just as I was typing my message. I'm not that experienced at using it though. I think you are right though. Thanks for the suggestion. Do you use this limit order types a lot in your trading?

altrader replied Aug 25, 2008nah not really. I'm only long for 10pips... I think the bigger trend is down. So i expect it to go up some and then retrace back down to meet the bigger downtrend.

altrader replied Aug 25, 2008I'm not sure but I'm pretty sure a lot of people use the begining of the Asian open to be the starting point of the day. Others are free to correct me if I'm wrong but based on books and websites that I've read. I'm inclined to think that the day ...

altrader replied Aug 25, 2008good luck. Quick question though. What made you confident to enter at that point? Was it because it failed to breach the 4750 in a convincing way?

altrader replied Aug 21, 2008I guess today is one of those rare days that I seem to be doing well. I just took another 10pips profit going long.

altrader replied Aug 21, 2008yeah you're right to target 48.40 first. I was tring to think about psyche levels though. Stuff that ends in 50 or 00 is something that I"m playing with at the moment. It's really interesting. take right now as an example. If it breaks the 4800 ...
