Hi,

I've not taken trades for a few days. Here are today's orders. These are counter trend orders, each is accompanied with a SAR order.

(T10181) sell eurusd @ 1.3757, s/l: 1.3926, t/p: 0.0000 (0.25 x MR)
(T10182) sell audusd @ 1.0175, s/l: 1.0383, t/p: 0.0000 (0.25 x MR)

(T10183) buy stop eurusd @ 1.3926, s/l: 1.3757, t/p: 0.0000 (0.25 x MR)
(T10184) buy stop audusd @ 1.0383, s/l: 1.0175, t/p: 0.0000 (0.25 x MR)

MR = 1%

Trade well

Just a quick update:

"(T10181) sell eurusd" and "(T10182) sell audusd" are open from last week, both near hitting stoploss level. If stops are hit SAR orders (buy stop orders) will be activated.

Trade well

Well, Thursday both eur and aud showed reversal signs. At first, I intended to close my short positions and take long positions, however today is NFP day and I prefer to close my positions ahead of NFP announcement.

Good trading.
What is your monthly result looking like? In pips and percentages.
What is your annual result looking like? In pips and percentages

Well, sorry for my late response. I was very busy. Also I have to take care of my sick mother.
I will not publish results in "pips". Not that it is confidential or anything similiar. You may see it from summary files (PDF format) that I post from time to time. The reason is that "pips" can not show results correctly. Assume that I have a 200 pips gain in one trade and a 200 pips loss in another trade. What is the overall profit? zero?
Not necessarily, because one of the trades may have greater positions size (more risk taken).

Good trading but I would suggest that you move your stop loss down harder to lock in more of your profits. This market is too tetchy and volatile to not react after such a relatively long (18 days) period of a down move in the AUD and EUR.

I am NOT suggesting to close the trade, but instead to move your stop loss closer and closer the longer the trade is moving in your direction.
