I think you should contact them. It could've been a false spike on their system. These things happen.

Stop Hunting?

Thanx Iso, Enjoy your weekend.

I'm with Global Trader. I think they deal with futures/options. They've got a great variety but their system is not up to scratch. What I want is instant execution when I click the mouse. Also, no slippage. With these guys, you place a stop at a ...

Yup, played that one. I will have to change brokers soon. If it wasn't for the delay in the price feed then I would've bagged more. Has anyone else also experienced this with their broker/platform ... the price on the charts moves up, say by 6/7 ...

Nice chart Wenzel. Keep them coming. Thanx Iso, I didn't notice that inverted flag thing

Thanx for the feedback Jim.

I really hate it when your stop gets hit and the market goes in your direction. Entered a trade on the trendline (long), went well, but then I was stopped before it went better ... at least it would've been. Missed out on 50, but ended the day with ...

Great trades Jim. How do you find InterbankFx (I take that's what you're using). In Demo version, their execution is virtually instant. Fastest I've exerienced so far. Is it the same when having a live account? I'm thinking of openning an account ...

Jim, If you played the pin bar, then you jumped the gun. Just want to know where you entered then? Top of today's bar? Thanx

Nice one Pipmon'. Just a quick question. How big was your initial Stop. Keep it up Habeeb

USD/CHF

Good point Ivenger, I'll try to remember that. I've got a crappy platform/broker/MM. There's alot of slippage, so I take profit were I can, and my target is 30 for the day. Small for now, but being greedy has slapped me a few times. Once I can ...

we're in the same boat. I think we need to be more confident about ourelves

GBPUSD

Should be more confident — Here was a great trade that I exit too early. I entered short at the top of the 2nd bar but had a limit of 30 (my daily target). At least it wasn't a loss. image

The_Wenzel, could you give us more insight about using the MACD and other pretty stuff you got on your charts. I see divergence with the MACD. Does that mean that you go with the direction of the price, or the direction of the MACD. I don't use ...

GBPUSD

Thanx for the advice Jim, Looking at the current situation on the charts, my trade would've been stopped out. Here the "moving stops to breakeven" advice would've saved your capital. Thanx again Jim, alway learning sumtin' nu. Habeeb

Lets talk USDCAD

Hi, I think that the pin bar trade would be in the negative now, unless you took a small profit or moved your stop to breakeven. I think a better/safer trade would've been to go short ater the DBHLC since the price is below the MA365. Just my ...

Lets talk USDCAD

Much clearer view ... welcome back Isotonic... the MA's and SAR are the ones that MB uses. Funny enough ... they're on the charts, but I never use them. Maybe because the chart looks a bit empty without them. I haven't implemented MB's technique ...

Will be watching this space. Thanx Jim and best of luck.

Query: Moving Stops to Breakeven

This week the dollar caught the majors sleeping and took full advantage on Monday. 1.8182 seems to be strong support and 1.8237 seems to be a good resistance. I think that a break of 1.8237 will lead us to 1.8300 or even to 1.8340 before the CPI on ...
