ddaytrader replied Dec 12, 2009Come on, Blackcat, read my posts from the last two days and read the quote from SOnic I have in my signature. Do yourself a big favor and stay away from anything lower than 15 minute time frame for at least 12 months.

ddaytrader replied Dec 12, 2009The spread at FXCM is only 1.2 pips on the EJ. When I post my trades I round up/down and when I enter my orders I round away from the low, so while it may look like I am only 1 pip lower, I am always 1.2-2.0 pips in actuality. For example, ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 11, 20091) With respect to that trade, your entry was late and so was your exit. In other words, you got in a too high a price and exited at too low a price. This of course, exacerbates the loss. I cannot log into FXCM right now (why they shut the data ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 11, 2009Sure David, I do want to point out another quote of mine from our earlier exchange: The rules are as I stated them, and as a new Soniker, I would suggest that you trade only those SonicR set-ups that comply with the rules. In this case, according to ...

ddaytrader replied Dec 11, 2009Yes, I will enter late but I try to wait for a retrace. For example, if I miss a short entry, I will wait for the first retrace on the M15 and try to enter at a 23-50% bounce level. Unless, of course, TP1 was already hit. If a TP1 is hit, the trade ...
