Looks like it's going your way, good work. I am currently flat waiting on some news for the UK election. Cable just dropped more than 2 cents but I don't want to jump on it too early as exit polls are just coming out. I think I will have a look at a ...

(binned per thread starter’s request) How many pips do you make p

Sounds like you got it under control Marc. Lost in Jan 2017 due to unseasonable weakness in USD. Buying USD after market opens has been a no brainer trade that usually works. I got stubborn and arrogant, held the trade until my 20% ...

What to do during trading? Collecting ideas

some selling into the close on Friday but most everyone gone for the weekend. Popped in to check on prices, still going my way (EURUSD shorty) and 1 offset rolled off into T/P but the other is up. Still, I am exposed so put stop above 1.14xx for ...

EURUSD

You got some movement. Up 10 pips since I last posted to 1.1179. I will come back before the close to see results. I have shut down and ready for some beach time. I have light shorts in this pair, light longs in AUDUSD and NZDUSD as ...
