Golfer replied Jun 9, 2008Yes — Yes, but then be very careful for the R:R ratio. A few good trades and profits can be easily eaten up by one bad trade. Look at the previous page (or two pages ago) for my expalanation using Yannis's EA. That is where I usually set my SL.

Golfer replied Jun 9, 2008My SL also got hit — Hi Bobo No need to worry - my SL of 15pips also got hit. I entered setup #3. It is just one of those days. A warning sign is the speed of the market - I also missed it. Look at the previous setups and you'll see several ...

Golfer replied Jun 7, 2008Using Yannis' EA — Hi Tony Thanks for the observation. I saw the same and in the begining I wasn't using a SL - only a mental SL. I wanted to see what is going to happen if you don't exit the trade. Many of the moves turned around and came ...

Golfer replied Jun 6, 2008How about a negative trade — I came across this picture of a trade of mine - I don't think I've posted it (if I did, forgive me). Just to show you people what a negative trade (-18pips)looks like. Nothing really wrong with the trade - only the ...

Golfer replied Jun 6, 2008Hopefully last example — Just another example of picture just after my entry - hope you get a feel for it. It is not that easy to decide which pullback to take if you don't have specific signals.

Golfer replied Jun 6, 20081min trade on NFP — My 1min trade after NFP release. Entered too early and then I couldn't follow my trade live. After my entry there were much nicer setups on the 1min chart but like I said - I am not comfortable with the 1min chart. Glad to ...

Golfer replied Jun 5, 2008Not my setup with pivot line so close — Yes, with pivot line so close, I would have given that setup a pass. That 1st pullback should have been to the pivot and bounce off it - ideally.

Golfer replied Jun 5, 2008Only on SMall resistance lines — The drawing of my small resistance lines and where they are broken - then I'll stay out of the trade. I saw my MACD was also getting flat near the zero line - another signal for me to stay out. Then I cannot ...

Golfer replied Jun 4, 2008Welcome back - missed you — Hi Nad Welcome back - I missed you. Hope you are doing well. Yes, EY is my favourite pair right now. Just because of the volatility. She'll give you many changes for easy 10pips and it is easier to get out BE or a ...
