I will rarely quickly re-enter a trade that opens with the same strong trend as it closed the previous week. My w/l is better if I let the market settle a bit before I enter, but if all the requirements are met and it's a good strong trend with no ...

The markets kinda stink today. That's typical for a Monday. Often I won't take any trades until every market has had a turn at price. I know of traders that take no trades on Monday at all. Monday is a study day for them and they start their trading ...

Well, you made a profit the first time using this method then, yay! I also often close out my trades at the end of the week. This week I made about 2X my minimum target for the week, so I just took profit on all except one position trade. I know ...

Yes, in general trends seem to be about half as long and as deep now from what they used to be prior to 2009 and it seems the trends are getting smaller each year. No doubt central bank intervention attempting to stabilize currencies after the ...

Nogames, this is my main income. I dabbled and studied for about 10 years, then traded part-time in stocks, commodities, futures and options for about 20 years, and I've now been in currencies for about 10 years. I wake up early every day and I ...

And those two lots stopped out overnight, but I still have the 74 pips in my pocket profit from the oldest lot that I closed. And that's a trade start to finish. It would have been nicer to watch if it had run a little longer to follow more action ...

This on the newswires just now: Mario Draghi is facing renewed pressure to implement quantitative easing after banks borrowed less than estimated in the European Central Bank's first targeted-loan offer. The Frankfurt-based ECB lent 82.6 billion ...

This wasn't my best trade of the day, GJ was actually much better, but since I chose this one early on to use as an example I'll stay with it. Now with a pocket full of pips and knowing there is absolutely no risk riding at all, I'll rest easily as ...

And here is the EJ long on the H1 after the bottom lot has been taken off for profit and a new lot has been added on top. If you want to trade more, you just don't take the bottom lot off and put one on top for the next cycle, so you are trading ...

Oops, was entertaining guests and missed my re-entry a bit, but here it is on the M1 as the RSI re-crossed the 50% line indicating a re-entry since the M5 never crossed below. If it had, I would have had to wait for it to clear above the 50% line as ...

This is the way it looks on the H1. Note the sl has been moved up so there is no real risk in the trade anymore. I have pips in my pocket and I'm just waiting for the retracement to end to put the next lot on. image

The bottom lot was taken off just as the retracement began. Now see how the rsi has dropped below the 50% line on the RSI? The next new lot is put back on when it crosses back above the line on this M1, as long as it hasn't crossed below on the M5. ...

A tiny retracement begins. I'm taking the bottom lot off here since it's near bedtime. I took LOTS more pips off the GJ long, about 160 pips, but since I was using this one for an example, I'll stay with it. image

I entered the trade with only 60 pip stops since I've already made my target profit for the week and I have no intention of losing it back. Now that it's going my way, up about 8 and 26 pips on the first two lots, I'll reduce my stop to only about ...

Euro is much stronger than Jpy, so a long trade is trading strong against weak. That checks. Now it's fundamental gut check time. Is it likely that the Jpy will get much stronger quickly? No, the Japanese have made it very clear they want the Yen to ...

It is solid up on every timeframe except this monthly chart. We don't worry about how long the trend has been running. Sometimes these things run for years. The future is uncertain. Since it's going up on every timeframe except monthly, we can say ...
