steviet replied Apr 5, 2007Hi Tradestar, I've seen the Tkimble thread but I believe his system is quite different to mine. He's looking at taking a trade at a certain time each day and also has a Take Profit. My trades can run for days or even weeks. Kind Regards Steve

steviet replied Apr 5, 2007No worries mate - I found USDCAD the most difficult & unpredictable pair to trade. You have a winning system & more importantly you trade it like a winner - don't sweat the small stuff

steviet replied Apr 5, 2007I love being in the market all the time too, frustrating as it can be sometimes. You're right, each individual trade doesn't matter, its the big picture and the consistency over a long period of time that does. The system itself is still very basic ...

steviet replied Apr 4, 2007Well, my GU bit the dust overnight for minus 58 pips. How the market can crucify you for a bad call lol. Should've gone long on all 3 pairs a day before I did & would have got out with a small profit instead of 150+ pip loss. Unfortunately, ...
