stersuhr replied Oct 10, 2008It was never 200 pips in profit, more like 100 pips, and we werent "stopped out" in the classic sense. The market gave a sell signal at which point we closed the long for a loss and went short per the rules. -Sterling

stersuhr replied Oct 10, 2008The stop loss was for trade #6 and it was actually 1.8920 not 22, typo my bad. The sell stop triggered so that would be concidered trade #7. We are still currently in trade #7 with the original stop. -Sterling

stersuhr replied Oct 10, 2008Basically the most important part is never trade more than 1 standard lot per $20000 in you account. If you have $2000 then trade 1 mini. I post my trades every 4 hours 2,6,10 AM and PM. Just taking my trades will give you my same results and give ...
