frankm7 replied May 3, 2009Dbhlc/dblhc — I'm still learning to how to play these, but what do you guys think of these: 1) EURGBP: The low of the DBLHC is off by 9 pips. 2) GBPCHF: The high of DBHLC is off by 30 pips (too much?), and isn't at a swing high and PPZ.

frankm7 replied May 1, 2009MM (2-3% Risk) — It was definitely an eye-opener to me when I placed two orders this past week that risked much more than 2-3% of my account. Unfortunately, both were losers. From what I've read here so far, R:R isn't necessarily as important ...

frankm7 replied Apr 28, 2009Bad PB or Bad Analysis? — I took this PB on the USDCHF 1H chart about 30 minutes ago. It was right at nice weekly ppz and had some room to move (my first Take Profit/Break Even point). Was this just one of the unfortunate PB's or was my ...

frankm7 replied Apr 9, 2009OMG!! — This is too funny... I set up my buy limit, stop loss at the nose, and take profit at the first R level. Headed to the gym... and... I MISSED IT BY A PIP OR TWO! I'm happy my analysis was correct though, although a trailing stop would ...

frankm7 replied Apr 7, 2009Broker Q — I too didn't see the PB on the NZDUSD. I've been demoing with IBFX but apparently they close later than the rest? Do you folks recommend I swich broker? I'm assuming this different close time can affect my daily chart analysis. ...
