shiko replied Jul 8, 2010I wonder, what stop sizes people use now? I used to have 40 pis stop loss. now have mostly 20-25 but thinking may be it is too tight. Also, BRW on his site advocates smaller stops. Would be interesting to hear opinions.

shiko replied Mar 4, 2010I did not try to diminish what Interceptor is doing. It just looks completely impossible to me to leave those limit orders just based on S/R to change directions as market changes direction. there is only probabilities. To leave limit order at some ...

shiko replied Mar 3, 2010I am curious, does anyone just leaves orders at determined S/R areas and lets them run to loss or profit with this strategy?

shiko replied Feb 28, 2010Yes, I always hate to see it miss some good trade for 1-5 pips and then go. it might be somewhere before there was S/R just few pips away from current level. I think I will not wait for spread to cross but it will depend upon market conditions.

shiko replied Feb 27, 2010I do not open more than 2 positions at 2 sides of the S/R range as BRV does. so, exact entry is important for me. So, I just wonder, should we set entry including or excluding spread. If we see price bounced form sat 130.50 down, should we set our ...

shiko replied Feb 26, 2010I also have some technical question. How you guy set limit orders, for example. reactionary level looks like 135.73 on the chart. But price hits at 135.75-76 and bounces without filling me. trade is gone. Should I set limit order not at 135.73 as it ...

shiko replied Feb 26, 2010I noticed that it is better to keep own advice regarding trades as each one has slightly different take on these things. I also avoid trading pairs that i have no understanding of and experience. I trade only 5 pairs: G/U, E/J, G/J, E/U and G/CHF. ...

shiko replied Feb 26, 2010Hi Smikester, thanks got advice. I actually preferred to wait until things a little cooled and started trading Japan close-London open. Made few pips then. I have been trading BRV method for quite some time and have a good hold on detecting levels, ...

shiko replied Feb 25, 2010I wonder how BRV would act in this situation. I clearly see the market going down on GBP/JPY and EUR/JPY. Idea of going contra trend even did not cross my mind. When I see such price behavior. However despite wanting to go short, I did not either ...

shiko replied Feb 7, 2010That's true. The plan is of most importance. Patience and waiting. But once set up which is according to the plan is present no hesitation. 90% of my trading session is just waiting , sitting, drinking coffee and watching for S/Rs
Then BUM, set ...No Brainer Trades
