no new trades for me yet, but I am watching.

I can see both bulls and bears get trapped.

Well, I think she has turned.
For those who have entered based on bearish bias, does not look good, until now....
 
Kudos to you Mike Kshemaraja, glad to see someone taking this pair on today. I've been avoiding the EUR/USD the last couple of days. I might be chicken lol but I've just not been able to get the timing right. Lost on the last 4 of my 5 trades, only small (im still learning live trading) but enough to make me consider taking a breather for a day or two and returning with a clearer head.

happy trading.

3.75% of what? of your trading capital?

so if you have $200K capital you made $7.5K today alone? Wow.

Yes, I risk 2% per trade of my capital, if I have 3 winning trades in a day I make 6% and if I lose 3 trades per day I lose 6% (less because my losses are smaller then my winners)

How much do you risk per trade of capital and how many trades in average you take in a day?

I have added this to my early post and I think it gives a more overall picture:

and if I lose 3 trades per day I lose 6% (less because my losses are smaller then my winners).

and you did not answer my questions, or maybe you did, never mind.

Imagine if he's got 10mil (y)

I may not do anything tomorrow. First of all I don't like Fridays and I am satisfied with my weekly return so far, would be annoyed to spoil it with a shot in the dark if we drag lower towards 1.25. From what I see now I would only operate in the 1.2580/1.26 area early on or maybe much higher around 1.2640/60 later if we get massive cover. We'll see.

Just to introduce my style I usually go for 20-25 pips per day (and per trade, I don't scalp), with the occasional 50-60 if momentum is there. I have at most 25pips SL on ALL my trades, and NEVER allow more than 50pips loss daily.

Lots of happiness to all who get involved!
:)

What's your R:R ratio - cause I'm struggling with the maths here?
