No trade set up this morning....

Chaps, whats the consensus this morning : MA same at 6.15 as it was 10 candles back - 14413, so NO TRADE ??
SO glad it was a no trade day, as my alarm didn't go off! Chart looks good for selling from 6:30 tho if anyone risked it and broke the rules...
Aye Really taking a no loss gamle today, almost close out for 40 pips mamually 20 mins ago but have now adjusted stoploss to 1 pip above entry and am going to try and ride this drop all the way down, see if i can get 100 or 150 pips or whatever, adjusted limit to 100 pips for now..............so watch out for 14265 to be hit!

Nope. Just got a text stopped out no no win no gain, hey ho. Live to fight another day.

Now then, if you'd have upped your stop loss to keep the same R:R ratio (30/50) as per target profit, you'd have done it, hit 14265 at 12.28. but high was 14408, so a stop loss of 60 would have covered it. Good try though, if I'd have been on 20p per pip I might have had a go, but bed beckoned again tbh. I'd have bailed at 40 tho!
Yeah it was fun while it lasted. Trouble is their where 3 massive upward swings at 7.45, 8am and 8.45, all around 50-55 points swings upwards from lowest to highest.
Like you said would have had to have set a 60 pip stop to avoid stopping out to hit 100 pips. But where do you stop with these after the event theories. You could say "hey, remove the stop altogether then you can't be stopped out, or have 60% stop rule like NT, where your stop is always 60% of the limit...........hmmm interesting, at 100 points limit as you say that would be 60 stop, twice NT. Food for thought.
