Just been taken into my first "volatile breakout" on Chf/Jpy 4hr chart. Lets see how it works out. If it closes above I will zoom in to 5 min and try some stacking of positions. Regards, Ben

Managed to get my two entries to be this morning. I must admit its a great feeling to have risk free trades on the board. I dont care if they die( one just has!) My priority is just getting the stops to zero.

Hi Graeme, When you stack positions do you have a particular scenario? For instance do you stack on every .00 break? Or do you wait for retrace on 5 min chart and then stack with momentum? I am finding it hard to get great momentum until London ...

Hi Songbo, I am only doing this on a demo account but my plan is to only have a maximum of 2 % of my account at risk at any one time. I am trading 2 lots at a dollar a pip each lot. My account is 50,000 so if my stop is 100 pips then I can have 5 ...
