Nice, there's those people skills again You've already been given an explanation, twice. Yanis: we have several price feeds depending on the platforms you: so Yanis: this is because different banks quote different prices at any one time Takisd: ...

And the problem is....? You might want to rethink your people skills though: you: that is one of the most stupid answer i heard Wow, those customer service guys sure have patience!

Ok, thanks for the explanation, I don't quite follow this bit though "lower stops broken and rejected". The low was 0.8704, do you not think a cluster of stops were more likely to be below 0.8700, and if so why weren't they ...

Really? With a bit of creative position sizing and trade management it's not that hard to see how it works is it? -

It's all relative, retail traders can trade in smaller increments right down to one unit! -

Commonly called 'averaging', nothing new and something which retail traders do as well, sometimes to their peril. Works great.....until price does move in a straight line, without any meaningful retracement (ask Xaron!). Grid traders use a similar ...

You posted a chart for EUR/GBP here and said "how about this one?". I was asking in this post if you could explain what you're looking at, your thinking, and what your plan would be, just so we have a clear example. Thanks! Here's the post again to ...

I agree, most of it seems to be quite subjective, as well as being part of a strategy rather than a strategy in it's own right. I'm interested for the same reasons, to see if there's anything which might be useful to me in my trading. I'm not sure ...

It makes you wonder how other big players get caught by it though, you would think they'd know the score. Unless it's just one big chess game, outsmarting and bluffing each other, that's even more reason for them not to divulge their intentions in ...

Isn't that what we've been saying/speculating all along though?

That was it, thanks Dan! Now there's an institutional guy, you heard it from the horses mouth (figuratively speaking!). We could really use his input in this thread, as well as other like him who have worked/work on the institutional side.

Imagining what players are doing and why they're doing it is certainly a romantic notion, but is there really any way to know in advance? Heck, other traders in the same company don't know what other traders are doing, I remember reading an ...

Not 'known', no, but in all probability? The way I see it (and I could be totally wrong here, but this is nothing new) is let's say price is approaching a big figure or significant support or resistance, isn't it in players interests to hunt stops ...

I had to look up 'abstruse' but apart from that so far so good! Should be an interesting thread, do you have a background in this type of analysis?

Same with this one, what are you looking to do here? Trade long on a break above those highs expecting a cluster of stops just above them to provide some upside momentum, or short with a reasonably tight stop expecting those highs to hold as ...

For a short? A long? The lines you've drawn in at those retracements in the uptrend, what do they represent, buy entries, or levels where you believe stops are clustered? I must have missed a page or two because all this looks like good ole ...

Ok, thanks

Don't do it then, lol. Why not set stops and limits, why wouldn't that work? Excellent, at least you recognize there's more satisfaction in a good well-executed trade which followed the plan, regardless of it's outcome. I expect you'll eventually ...

I exit too early...
