Jpnek replied Jun 15, 2009Hey Ricky, Yeah, I'm on the sidelines waiting for Geithner's speech. If Jacko thinks there'll be a pullback... that's all I need to calmly sit on my hands while waiting for my entry... The let's-get-all-spiritual-while-Kumbaya-singing is what I like ...

Jpnek replied Jun 10, 2009Hey Low, Yeah, due to market conditions, somewhere along the the end of 2008 Jacko decided to change his S/L to 100 pips in order to avoid getting hit by the market's volatility.

Jpnek replied Jun 9, 2009Hi Low, Isn't a 50 pip hard stop a little small for an A-H with the current market volatility...? As you may know, Jacko is currently trading with 100 pip S/L's.

Jpnek replied Jun 9, 2009Great to see that your longs are on the green, Ricky. Way to go
One of the things that I've found most profitable is letting my winners run as far as possible. Admittedly, sometimes you do lose a few dozen pips before getting stopped by a ...Jacko's Forex House of Pleasure and Pain

Jpnek replied Jun 9, 2009Hi Hans, After getting back my loss with the A-H, I'm keen to enter the market again but I'm afraid my H4 channel has been badly pierced... the H4 support line is now acting as resistance (look at the last 4 candles) so we don't seem to have much ...

Jpnek replied Jun 8, 2009Hey Hans, Hoy did your A-H go? Mine (.3850) has gone as far as 15 pips close to recover that missing soldier in its full capacity... S/L is now set to B/E and after a longgg night I'm letting it play itself out... finally!

Jpnek replied Jun 8, 2009Thanks for answering. I'm on the same boat. On a trendier market I'd just let the A-H play itself out. With the market conditions however, I wouldn't want to incur in a double loss... so while the A-H is playing, I'll watch it closely... Cheers,

Jpnek replied Jun 8, 2009Hi Hans Can I ask you how do you trail your A-H's. Do you apply the same rules as regular trades (100 HardS/L /100 TS/L)?

Jpnek replied Jun 8, 2009From a MM point of view, an A-H will do wonders to minimize any account drawdown. With this type of market volatility however, I also feel it's kinda risky to just let your target be hit thinking that it'll just shoot north. In fact, I'm currently ...

Jpnek replied Jun 8, 2009Very Wise words there, Low. "Lack of trendy-ness" will definitely turn us into better traders as it forces us to think out of the box.

Jpnek replied Jun 6, 2009A few hundred pips certainly wouldn't kill my account either as I never risk more than 3% of my account at any given time. What I meant to say when I wrote that "I couldn't stand being kicked a few times out of counter trades (that would be a few ...

Jpnek replied Jun 6, 2009Good for you, CyberCore. I remember Jacko saying that "a trader must be pragmatic and/or opportunistic to take advantage of unusual trading opportunities", I guess this was one of them for you. Personally, I couldn't stand being kicked a few times ...
