I think it might reverse but I am not doing nothing until I have signal. a lot of uncertainty. I get signal I will buy or sell. gbp/usd I have a signal to buy. nzd/jpy is very confusing. was signal to sell, not it is flat. I am staying in. risk is small.
btw, Steve, do you know this but trend follower should take all signals even when market sideways because sooner or later one of those signals turn into big trend and the longer consolidation the stronger the trend. whipsaw.

sure

if you check my daily EA BT report there are many conflict trades at the same time but at the end the winner are greater then the looser

I know I know, it is just my thoughts on trade management. But forecast? I think it might be everything. until after the fact nobody knows., no use to make predictions. it might go sideways which would be nice for my day trading and trend is also nice.

I was actually short just before him but got stopped at BE just before it dropped.
it just touched my stop and the dropped. But I could not afford not to move to BE before such speech.



generally speaking I tend to have winners much bigger than losers. was risking 10 pips on this one.

not loosing is a big part of winnig in FX.

I was just about to OCO trade. God knows. But decided to trade the system until I got some info if it will be a neutral winner or at least not a looser.

if MT4 has DOM ( deep of market) and couds see the volumes traded then I could code a real momentum system.

you cannot have volumes traded on MT4 or any FX platform. cause there is no FX exchange like NYSE. volumes of course are important
