It's a tempting one isn't it lol. Trouble is, it's another dollar pair haha. GJ on the daily looks pretty tempting too and by the way it moves I may just go for it. Steve

Great first post Johnny This method was carefully worked out so I could continue the same method when I am able to trade 'full-time'. You see, much as I like the markets I could do without spending a lot of time in front of the pc. That ...

Yes, when it moves, boy does it go lol. And no, I won't be blaming anyone other than myself if results aren't what I'm after so no worries on that score Kind Regards Steve

Hi Ken, Thanks for taking the time as I know you don't write too much here these days. I think one more yen pair would be enough in a portfolio of 5 for now and GJ seems quite a challenge lol. I can see what you mean from backtesting that they can ...

Yes, AUDUSD would be a sell for me on the daily & EUR/AUD looks like it may have bottomed out.

Thanks for your comments hilmy Yes, my b/k does offer that facility, however I don't really want to trade more than 5 pairs total. I think I may be a little 'dollar heavy' (Iso (smart man), pointed this out in one of the first pages lol. My ...

Thanks Den, Yes, EURAUD is one I've thought about as well - the spread is 15 pips with my b/ker and with GJ it is 9 pips. I may have to look at placing stop losses slightly higher if I were to trade these pairs - one of the main reasons for choosing ...

Question — Hello faithfull readers I've had a thought (dangerous I know) lol...... So far in my 5 months live trading as a newbie I've made 1349 pips after losses trading the five pairs. Now, as time goes on a pattern is emerging & I would ...

Just in for lunch - how annoying is that? Stopped out by a news spike two days running lol. EU short stopped out at 1.3353 for minus 70 pips. Current trades open... USDJPY long from 117.54 - currently plus 77 pips USDCHF long from 1.2195 - currently ...

OK, USDCAD was stopped out overnight for minus 24 pips. Not entirely surprising this one. March pips: +360 Cumulative: +1419 Kind Regards Steve

Hi again Ken, Yup, I thought it was worth taking as an initial stop loss of less than 40 pips is pretty low risk on my method. GU continues to be my best pair despite February and it does seem to 'double top' or 'double bottom' more than the other ...

Thanks for your condolences, The only actual new trade is the GU one, the others are held over from yesterday when all was looking so good. As s/l were not hit, they continue as per plan but I am not especially confident I must say. Kind Regards ...

OK, end of 'one of those' days lol. 4 trades still on although stop losses were nearly hit on 2 of them. Have managed to tighten slightly on all but EU... USDCAD long from 1.1608 (s/l 1.1584 guarantees minus 24 pips) EURUSD short from 1.3283 (s/l ...

Thanks for your kind words. My mother's side of the family all seem to make it to a ripe old age - another Great Aunt was 102 & even going back two more generations, both my Great Grandfather & his father made it to their late 90's which was very ...

Ouch, Only just got in as I was at my Great Aunt's funeral today - she was 99 so had what we would say in England as a 'good innings'. When I left this morning my trades were sitting very pretty but it appears the US housing data has poured water on ...

Hi Yes, 4 trades were stopped out Friday, 3 for big gains, so I have re-entered tonight. The UJ trade has been active since late last week. Kind Regards Steve

Steviet's Live Trades!

Well, another week is upon us and 4 new trades placed..... USDCAD long from 1.1608 (s/l 1.1549 guarantees minus 59 pips) USDCHF long from 1.2195 (s/l 1.2103 guarantees minus 92 pips) GBPUSD short from 1.9612 (s/l 1.9701 guarantees minus 89 pips) ...

Hi Amatpro, Firstly, thanks for your comments. There are a great deal of tweaks that could be made to my method and I know there are a few traders using the basics of my method but trading it slightly differently to me. I've thought about this ...

Steviet's Live Trades!

OK, I'm relaxed now I think all we would like to see is the thread starter to start his/her own journal with actual live trades and we can all stop speculating lol. As moneybags and a few others have said, what was the point of starting the ...

Ultimate Successful Trading Technique

Thanks Pipex (& Bandana too), There are some pros and cons about doing your own journal but the pros definitely outweigh the cons. It keeps me focused, disciplined (coz I know you are watching lol), honest and I've met some great people both through ...
