Sheesh, How annoying is that lol. USDJPY short stopped out for minus 43 pips - only 7 hours ago as I settled down to sleep it was plus 80! It was looking the least likely of the 5 trades to be stopped out - the others are still hanging in there with ...

I think it's one of those days when it's the correct approach to limit any possible losses - I'm pleased we're thinking the same way on this. I always hesitate when I choose a way opposite to the backtested method but I think there are very valid ...

To add to the fun, I see EU keeps reversing at around 1.3180 & UCHF the same from 1.2170. My daily bars would tell me to go long EU & short UCHF tonight but to say I'm confident would be an outright lie lol. Kind Regards Steve

Hmmm, Just been stopped out of GU short for plus 287 pips & UCHF long for minus 63 pips. This means I'll need to re-enter in a couple of hours together with a new EU position. With interest rate decisions due it's not ideal but I must remember that ...

hehe, Yup, strictly speaking I may have gone either way on CAD but wasn't quite with it this morning lol. I've just checked & my UJ was stopped out after 10pm so shouldn't have re-entered that one until tonight either! Mind you, would have picked up ...

Wow, I see everyone else has been busy whilst I was asleep lol. Thanks for all your comments & I guess to sum up, yes I know we leave pips on the table but you have to if you want to catch the really big trends. It's just my way of doing things and ...

Steviet's Live Trades!

OK, I have a huge confession to make You know I said in my last post about that wine I had? Well, 5 minutes after that I was asleep and didn't wake up until 2am thus missing my trade entries & stop loss changes. Even then, my pc is in the ...

Hi, Thanks for your comments - it certainly is tempting to close out when you are so far up. My system is just being tested for the year and that certainly is an option. Just been out for a lovely meal with the wife and drank a little too much wine ...
