i have to be careful on the above trade, my gut is telling me that eur tomorrow will again be bullish, not bearish
will leave it in until i go to bed (in about 3 hours)
then will look to buy on dips again.

oh and to add, days like today, i double SL to account for volatile market moves, risky yes but has saved me taking losses when SL too tight for market conditions

Many times EU will seek pivot during its 24 hrs. moves, so I am actually short orientated.
pivot for daily is 1.2950? lets see where we go,
i had a target of 1.2935 as that is support

This stuff is beyond me. But it is very smart thing you are doing.

how you determine your sl.
>there is no one rule, stop loss is determined mostly on technical analysis of recent market moves paired with known support/resistance / fib lines + guesswork lol
Same for all which is the first executed order?
Or individual?
>they all start with an individual SL, for a 0.05 i try to keep it within a max of @30 pips, @ 0.02 ill push the SL to a max of 60 pips. bigger trades = tighter stop loss.
if the market moves +20 pips after the trade is placed, and market is in a trend, i will often move SL to break even instantly, when market is ranging i keep stop loss where initially placed,
if market moves further say another +30 pips, so +50 pips total i will align all SL to match each other say at +20 and adjust as i go.
TP i usually have two targets and split it between them.
for example the setup earlier looks like:
1st trade 0.05 @1.2999 [email protected] [email protected]
2nd trade 0.03 @1.2994 [email protected] [email protected]
final trade 0.02 @1.2985 [email protected] TP None

The only problem I see is that you need very volatile markets like today.

totally correct,
to trade when market is not volatile i 'try' to scalp instead, dropping the method and concentrating on getting one trade right :)
whats hard to learn is resisting to trade when you know you shouldn't, i expected a decent pullback tonight, but looking at the charts no direction is evident yet, if anything it looks to be slowly crawling back to 1.3, i should really drop the last trades out till morning but i know i wont :)
i feel the currency is overvalued, so expecting a hard drop, that said it still feels wrong to have a sell in now, when current short term trend is bullish

I could not trade at work and had very limited time at home only at night. Only played a bit but mostly had only time last summer when I opened my thread and traded only oil for 2 months. I have to admit my biggest progress had happened during this hiatus. Both psychological and technical.

u use individual SL
EA trade with common SL from the very first order.
we may work on that EA in another thread to make it better.
