Good trading but I would suggest that you move your stop loss down harder to lock in more of your profits.

Thanks, but based on my rules I change stop loss level to yesterday's candle High or Low.

Very interesting trading...have you written your basic method down? would be great to see that posted, though I think I understand you are using some intuition too.

thanks again for a great thread

 

[rajgogna]

I've just placed an order to buy on the nzd/usd

buy at 7920
stop loss at 7820

the price is trending higher on 3 large timeframes, 4hr, daily and weekly chart

Could be a good break upwards

Hey trader_d

Where are you? This is the best and most honest thread on the T2W site.
Hope you are alright.

Hi,

I'm sorry if I did not reply to some of the recent posts. I check the forum every day, but I was too busy to post, and did not take any trade recently except the one in 12-Jan-2012 which has stopped.

I'll be back very soon.

Thanks and trade well
