dobe_r_man replied Nov 2, 2009Updates - Eur/Aud / Gbp/Usd — I have to admit I feel fortunate to get the pips I did on these trades. I was long the E/A from a daily buovb retracement entry and was stopped out at 1.6389 after the gap Sunday opening. On Cable I did the same ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 30, 2009HEY, I thought you only kept things 'slightly' serious!! Just kidding of course, I am very grateful for Jim's teachings and the others you mentioned as well. Glad to hear it! GBP/USD On a more serious note, first test of 1.65 failed......

dobe_r_man replied Oct 30, 2009gbp/usd — Still in this trade, but not sold it will work out. Testing 1.50 area, if it can break through and 1.50 can then act as resisitance it may have a chance to work out but it is early to tell one way or the other. I have tightened my ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009I wouldn't, but that is just me. I also wouldn't not take a trade based on someone else's opinion though......ha ha. This could work out perfectly for you, too messy for my taste. I would rather wait for action around the 138 or 130 area.

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009I don't know that this helps at all (but I have day traded the emini myself), but I think the advantage of higher time frames is the time you have to react. Even when managing stops aggressively as I did on my E/J and U/C trades, it was typically ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009It could, but then again if you followed your trading plan then you did the right thing. Right now I view this trade as not working out unless proven otherwise. I expect to reduce my stop loss after today (as of right now), unless it shows me ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009What is interesting about this pair is the monthly pin forming at a swing high! I don't typically enter monthly bars, BUT I will be watching the daily and weekly for reasons to go short if it closes as a pin. Honestly, this jumps out at me on the ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009I don't think you did anything wrong with taking this trade (and I don't say that to make me feel better because I am in it too). My stop is still above the daily BEOVB but I am in the red of course due to my entry at 1.467 area. It still could work ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009Ok, who spiked your coffee?
I am keeping a clear mind (love the avatar by the way), just being realistic. The worst thing you can do is convince yourself it will work out, but until my stop is hit for now I will see it through just in case. I ...james16 Chart Thread

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009Ha ha.......I know you are just kidding anyway, but I can tell you as a commercial real estate lender at an American Bank I see no signs of it. On the residential side we have inventories for years and on my side (commercial) it isn't much brighter. ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009gbp/usd — Looking very ugly, if 1.66 doesn't hold I will likely get stopped out for a very quick trade today (losing). Strange, even when I press down on the chart, it just keeps climbing.....
I believe I've been neutered on this one........james16 Chart Thread

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009Ha ha......well I am partial (see previous post), but we will both find out soon enough. To me, 1.65 is the key. If it closes above this I probably won't stick around and take my loss. If it closes below, I will see what happens next. But that is ...

dobe_r_man replied Oct 29, 2009Day of Stops — I was stopped out on Usd/Cad (1.0746) and Eur/Jpy (1.3417), but both worked out very well. GBP/USD My retracement entry was hit at 1.6475, but I have to admit I am a little concerned on this trade. If 1.65 holds today then ...
