😆 😆 😆

impossible.. there are too many! we have them setup so that if one burns down a new one will automatically pop out of the ground!

There are some banks with orders to short Euro at 1.411 .. the hourly downtrend.. I have an order at 1.41 and will kill it at 30 pips if the bank orders can't stop the bull run..

No, didn't feel good about ninja so got out last night with 25 p. Didn't have any thing running overnight

but if we put in a large enough sl then won big today 🙁

 

[Pippy5000]

I haven't used more than a 30 pip stop loss in more than a week.. My normal tactic is to use a much larger s/l but I'm doing an experiment to see if I come out better with a smaller stop.. there's nothing worse than using too tight of a stop and then having the trade snap back overnight for a big profit.. nothing worse EXCEPT a giant 110 pip loss because your stop is too big 😆 .. I don't know.. just needed to check it out..

agree, I usually go with tight sl, unless seeing a very high chance winning trade

which one? long or short? I'm shorting for small tp

 

[Pippy5000]

I'm short down 12 .. EJ is way way up and I am considering bailing ..

 

[cpngtw]

ok out -10, not good

 

[Pippy5000]

down 20.. this looks very bad

 

[cpngtw]

looking to short again

 

[cpngtw]

probably around 1.4128 - 1.4130 or so ... let's see

 

[cpngtw]

ok reenter

 

[Pippy5000]

ah... I might live .. down 12 again.. you reentered? ouch..

 

[cpngtw]

yup 😀 your ej looks good

 

[cpngtw]

just scalping here, will look for long entry on euro after this short. I think it'll go up further

 

[Pippy5000]

no, I'm short EU .. I had a chance to bail -4 now I'm -10 again..

 

[cpngtw]

also shorting euro here looking for small change 😀 but after this correction (not sure where it'll stop) I'll look for long entry if it shows
