d'oh. Offered me about 18 pips and then stopped me out. Starting to get paranoid about posting my trades, lol. Certainly a bad patch. Might give posting a rest, lol.

be,
it does look like a nice short there supprt becomes resistance set up but what you have to ask yourself is where do you expect it to go?
its already excedeed its ave daily range so best you could hope for is a retest of the lows
wht risk/reward does tht give you?
if you are happy with the answers you get and its part of your plan to trade these set ups then go for it.

good. Hope it works out for you. I guess we all have slightly different numbers depending on our broker/spreadbet company (i imagine you spreadbet?). I trade currency futures which traded upto1.6148 which would have stopped you and then dropped! would have been annoying. thats why i asked.
Anyway. Have a good one.

Typically a 1 pip spread. I like the trade transparency of a regulated marketplace - that everyone trading the same contract as me is getting the same exact prices/highs/lows, which means that your broker cant play games with your trades as dealers sometimes do.
That being said, I also have a few spreadbet accounts that i use and dont really have any complaints. Its just that if im trading short term/scalping, I feel better using futures.

Thats fair enough, definately better for scalping your gaining .08-1 pip each way on each trade.
As for the spreadbet accounts i thought they wern't allowed in the us....or is the flag a decoy?

lol. Never even noticed that! (my flag). Im sure it wasn't always a US flag, although in fairness, i didn't visit this site for years. Im British. I do spend time in Canada and the US though and have spreadbetted with no problems.
