going to keep a trailing stop of 20 pips now and follow it up.

Wish spread bet firms had trailing stops. :cool:
 
closed for a stop at 1.4794 -£9.00

going to go for broke think a target of 1.4820 will be on so I'm going for £2 pp to really recover account. wait for entry
 
FX NEWS

EURO-DOLLAR: Major German name the noted 'aggressive' seller from around the earlier highs at $1.4820, the supply taking the rate back below $1.4800. Talk remains of a possible digital option at $1.4825, rolls off today at the NY cut, and expexcted to draw decent selling ahead to keep rate below at the alloted time. 14.00GMT

So expecting a push:
BUY 1.4798 stop 1.4783 Limit 1.4820 (may adjust to a close if it goes my way) £2 pp
 
Stopped 1.4783 -£30.00

I hate when it hits your stop on the point then rises, really hate that (n)

Acc Bal £50.50
 
I'm gonna go with an aggressive sell off.

SELL 1.4790 stop 1.4829

Margin all used, £1 pp this is it I'm in for the win or the end.................

All indictors and news say hit could hit £1.4820/5 but with a retreat to near 1.4700 with the FED and ECB meetings coming up. So could be a 5 min trade or an all week trade.

We will see.......................

Update for the day.

Acc Bal Start of the Day £70.00

SELL 1.4738 stop -£11.00
SELL 1.4790 closed +£5.00
BUY 1.4780 closed +£5.00
SELL 1.4789 closed +£1.00
BUY 1.4787 closed +£13.00
BUY 1.4787 limit +£6.50
BUY 1.4803 closed -£9.00
Buy 1.4798 stop -£30.00

£50.50

Now on a SELL or bust position:
SELL 1.4790 stop 1.4829 £1 pp

Talk and indicators of 1.4850+ if past 1.4820 which it touched today, R line seems to be 1.4800 but I feel a big sell off coming back to 1.4715 at least and maybe lower. The question can I get the short end before a BULL push to my margin call at 1.4829. This leaves £1.75 in account so stop just in place with all magin used !

Short or Bust :p

Morning Guys

Bad morning looking like BUSTO today on ETX Capital.

Start 51.92

GBP/USD SELL 1.6420 stop -£10
GBP/USD BUY 1.6440 closed -£10.50
EUR/USD SELL 1.4792 stop 1.4836

Its all or bust on the EUR/USD used as much margin as safe as I can, If I do bust It will leave about £2-3 balance.

NEED A STRONG DOLLAR NOW.
 

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

JD - Stop now, spend the 50 quid on a nice meal to console yourself.

There is absolutely no point in continuing. There nothing noble in throwing money away and the market isn't in the habit of handing out free passes or lucky breaks.

Get yourself a demo account somewhere.

Doing that will say more about your ability to be succesful than continuing with this to the death.
