PiPsAddict replied Sep 14, 2009It amazes me how resilient this market really is. The fundamental data and political jawboning has not exactly been stellar the past few weeks, yet the equity markets just keep shrugging it off and proceeding north.

Have an awesome weekend everyone.... here's to big pipin' next week

PiPsAddict replied Sep 11, 2009You're right, it has. My take is that if we get a close down around the 150.50 area, then she'll likely continue down to the next support area around 149.00.

PiPsAddict replied Sep 11, 2009Well it figures that she (gbp/jpy) waited until Friday to fall out of bed.
Hopefully she's getting primed for a good move to start next week.

PiPsAddict replied Sep 10, 2009Fair enough... so even though I had similar results on 4 major USD crosses, I should just chalk this week up to being an fluke?

PiPsAddict replied Sep 10, 2009I'm just throwing this out there... so do with it what you will. I took Ace's system and applied it to the dollar cross majors. To be specific I charted it on EUR, GBP, CAD and AUD. The only major tweak I made was that instead of measuring my TP1 ...

PiPsAddict replied Sep 9, 2009You definitely have a point Yen. It is hard to ascertain whether or not the SL would have been taken out based on a 4 Hour candle. If I had used a full 100% SL on the first breakout to the downside, then I would still be in the trade with a draw ...

PiPsAddict replied Sep 9, 2009The current range this week will help to shake a lot of the "get rich quick" crowd out of Ace's tree. Whilst we all sit patiently waiting for the "Beast" to make it's move. For demo testing purposes, I have taken every breakout this week using a 30% ...

PiPsAddict replied Sep 9, 2009The market this week is like watching paint dry. DOW is up today, however, currencies are reluctant to follow. Hopefully a sign that these tight ranges are going to finally break.

PiPsAddict replied Sep 8, 2009That just put a huge smile on my face after a tough start to the week.... thanks a million Yen!

PiPsAddict replied Sep 8, 2009Yes, this strategy would've worked very well on Eur/Usd and Gbp/Usd today. Although catching the Gbp/Usd break would've required you to take a second long trade after being stopped out of the original break. I calculate the TP's a bit differently on ...

PiPsAddict replied Sep 8, 2009I have to agree with you Pharoah. Market conditions will always continue to evolve, however, history has a way of repeating itself, and that is why it's important to take note of historical data. So we can TRY and prepare for what MAY be looming ...

PiPsAddict replied Sep 8, 2009Chopped and Stopped — Well, it looks like the week is off to a choppy start. I have now been stopped out on both long and short breakouts using the 30% SL variation. Losses were kept small, so not too bad. There were huge breakouts on the gbp ...

PiPsAddict replied Sep 7, 2009LOL... yeah, I hear ya Yen. I just like the concept of getting out of the way sooner than later. We all know that if it's a true breakout, then the chances of getting stopped out are much less likely, and the trade should run hard and fast.

PiPsAddict replied Sep 7, 2009Long stopped/Short in play — I got stopped out on the long as well. I only used the 30% SL (a la yen44x), so damage was kept to a minimum. Price ran to to the 89 SMA, which is one of a couple MA's I like to have on my charts. It got rejected ...
