No. I have a TP of 50 blind, but if Im watching i tag a 10 pip TS when 50 is hit, otherwise out at 50. Normally I wouldnt average down like this, but the stop loss at the original entry was 2-3 times more than what I would normally use making my ...

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems there is a lot of technical resistance right here.... as Im watching this it just bounced off 4913 for the 3rd time and thats combined with several classical indicators all in overbought territory.

I completely understand where your comming from. I did something of the same, averaged down all the way to 14733, woke up this morning to a margin call, loosing the 72% profit I had made in the last 3 months and 90% of my original deposit.

Margin Call — It happened, I woke up this morning to a huge spike down off some really stupid USD numbers... OF COURSE RETAIL SALES ARE BETTER, ITS F'ING XMAS. Still doesnt justify the 100+ pip fall. The thing thats going to piss me off is ...

Everyone will laugh, but I fully plan on retiring when I can manage a good steady trading history. There was a point I was making 300 bucks a day on average till I made poor choices.

Depends on the broker. I know FXDD required a 100% margin level, my current broker requires 0%.. so basically my account can run to ZERO equity and the trade will automatically close, returning the margin used to broker. With the 100% level... if ...
