Someone smarter than me should have taken profit in that brief run up. the 1 min was showing a possible move down for a possible retrace as I still have a bias for the upside. I still have a bias that 5min still lacks the internal divergence for a ...

Sorry Ahmed I do not have oil on my charting platform. Cable price broke the channel on the 1min and 5min. I see divergence on the 1min that may indicate continued move up. Some scalpers may have taken advantage of the few pips available earlier ...

minimum of 3% per month in earnings. I would consider myself very lucky whenever I get to double the funds in a month. therefore it is very possible. but a week or more so in a day to double an account, I would not count on that as I can not risk so ...

Taking a major hit today for a total of 750pips. an additional 10 pips per trade on each of those 3 long trades would have spared them. On the other hand, the hedge earned 310 by the time I was able to close them. So a total loss only of 440 pips. ...
