Spieler, Thanks for the feedback. The reason I missed the 1.6262 exit on Friday was that I have to trade from work during the day and can't watch all the time. I know this puts me at a disadvantage but I still feel that the system can be profitable.

Spieler, I have to trade on my phone while at work and the quotes are delayed by 15 minutes so I was late on getting into the trade. Hopefully I'll be able to find some sort of email alert system or a website with up to the minute quotes.

Spieler, When you enter a 3rd position at +.50% from the last one do you close that latest position when the price retreats back to the entry point for the previous trade or do you close when it hits a certain profit level? I am asking because my ...

Spieler, What do you consider a good exit signal? If the price is slowly working its way to your percentage will you close out when it is broken or hold to see how much profit you can take? Do you leg out of the trade based on the direction of the ...
