Pipsqueaker. Not to offend, but this is a thread for advanced users. You are asking a "How do I crawl" kind of question, amongst a bunch of marathoners. As for me, I'm at the 3K walk/run stage. Please come back when you can answer your own question.

Steve Hopwood's Fib Target-level retracement auto-trader: compliments Simone

Correct. 0.75%, or thereabouts. Before I get rich, I have to hit break even (after mopping up after previous disasters). But it sure looks like I'm on the right track.

JPY easing up a bit — I am whittling away at some of the DD. I tripled up some of the jpy lots (it HAS to come back sometime) and the nighttime brought me a lot closer to BE. With this much rise in EJ I figured it would be a very long time ...

TOB hedging now in DD — TOB hedging kicked in yesterday or so and now the Yens are easing off. Unfortunately, some of my hedge trades are now in DD and the sells/buys are even. I seem to remember something in place to keep this from happening, ...

JPY — After taking a beating right after the earthquake, I revised my lot sizes and am now at .01 lots per $1,000. I figured to take it conservative and slow. Having said that, I'm still into draw down. I am also stuck in the JPY crisis and ...

What a ride today. TOB Rules! — At one point I was $400 in DD. Now, an hour and a half later, things have calmed down and I'm just about BE. I know for certain, if I had been doing this on my own I would have been severely harmed. Watching TOB ...

TOB is the boss — I woke up in the middle of the night and listened to BBC talk about the Japan earthquake. I was able to just picture what the JPY issues were doing. TOB is playing it just right and just the way a pro trader would. An event ...
