DanUK replied Jan 30, 2011Hi happypi, With regards to the E/U - it all depends on how you interpret the chart. If you read the most recent upswing as a retracement in the downtrend then you would take a sell signal at the level rather than waiting for a further move down and ...

DanUK replied Jan 30, 2011Hi, I had to do a bit of searching but I knew I had posted something on this (I think I will make some kind of PDF linking all the important aspects of the method together at some stage): For your info: Stop Loss: url And this may also be ...

DanUK replied Jan 30, 2011Hi Jay, I certainly see what you are saying. I do in fact hedge trades if the situation is right and I get a solid signal to do so. In the recent case of the EUR/CAD the situation would have been right to place a hedge trade (in so much as the ...

DanUK replied Jan 27, 2011Hi Mark, No, I wouldn't say you were wrong - and I must admit that at that time I was of a similar mind. However, I would add that at that time price flow had started to show the development of a downtrend (which I have highlighted on my daily chart ...

DanUK replied Jan 26, 2011Yup, it's rare that such a thing will happen but it should be remembered if you are in a trade with multiple positions and it goes against you - you are going to loose a lot more in "pips" than you would with a single position. But the main point is ...

DanUK replied Jan 26, 2011Hi happypi, It's an interesting one. As it happens I have recently shorted this pair as my 4 hour chart showed a reasonable looking bearish outside bar off of the 1.3000 level. So for my own selfish reasons... I hope you're right lol!! Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jan 26, 2011Hi Paul, I finally exited my EUR/CAD short with less than I had wanted but a profit nonetheless. I had two positions that remained open (indicated on my chart by the red arrows). Once price came up and pierced the 1.3250 S/R level (on the 14th Jan) ...

DanUK replied Jan 26, 2011Looks like this short is working out quite well, congratulations! If price is held under the 1.5000 level you could well see another 500+ pip drop here. Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jan 26, 2011Hi b12, Kind of ironic you should post that (as I was subsequently missing for a while!). Yes, daily time frame (particularly if you are new to trading) with progression to H4 when confident/skilled enough! Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jan 17, 2011Hi roundrock, Congratulations on your win. I understand your entry but just curious as to why you left at 80 pips? I tend to aim for longer term moves; for example I too am short E/C at the moment and I am up about 1,100 pips. Regards, Dan

DanUK replied Jan 16, 2011That's fair enough - it's always best to be cautious. The old saying "sometimes no position is the best position" is often true. My opinion is that the E/U is currently stuck within a range (as per the blue levels on my chart). If it breaks out ...

DanUK replied Jan 16, 2011Hi lite27, I don't see any real good reason to sell at the moment. I think we might be seeing a downtrend start here but so far the only evidence of that I see is weakness in the uptrend. I have yet to see the new trend "form" and until then ...

DanUK replied Jan 16, 2011Hi Milan, When you say that the "location" is a problem for you, could you explain a bit more about what you mean? I'm not going to suggest that this is by any means a "sure thing" - I don't think such a thing exists but I wouldn't be put off by the ...

DanUK replied Jan 16, 2011Hi Steve, On my feed the E/C doesn't look quite as good as yours (close seems higher; due to timezone) and not so inviting but I think it's a worthy play. Price has retraced up to s/r at 1.3250 and appears to have run into trouble. A sell below the ...

DanUK replied Jan 15, 2011Hi Fox25, Thank you for your post. I am indeed aware of the "Golden Ratio" and Fibonacci Expansions. In fact, I have spent quite a lot of time looking into this subject. However, I don't agree that "you have to use the Fibonacci extension and ...

DanUK replied Jan 14, 2011Good to know! I always think "constructive criticism" is helpful but it's hard not to come across as simply critical on a forum! Regards, Dan
