This is my current situation. I m still thinking about my stop loss of E/G i had right convention taking long but i think i took it little early now it is going north.

I'm not much worried about E/C loss becuase i know i did mistake here, I had to release some profit when it is 100+ or any reversal what so ever. I think i m still not much mature to take losses, this is all about mind game. Forget past, forget losses. I will think about future. Past is gone.

Good luck guys,

I already closed, two postions.
Other then E/J i closed other two, due to weekend, and some reversal I saw.
You guys all have a great weekend. I don't remember what was exact pips but I think +256 and +11 pips.

In this account I am "long term' holding for a week or so.

Yes i'm from Australia but i think it's just coincidence that all these pairs are aud

Can i ask what your risk % is per trade?

I tend to stay away from CAD pairs myself as I tend to take a fundamental position to backup the technical signal and I haven't learnt exactly what drugs the CAD is on (comms and stuff plus what else?? ), so yeah, i leave it alone. I like usd/chf, eur/gbp, aud/nzd pairs, dabbling in jpy now and then but have left them alone of late because of uncertainty.

new positions for me are a long usd/chf 1.2450 but i longed e/u on friday near close as i'm expecting a retrace early in the week. plan so far is to try and hold the u/c through the week and cover any adverse move with teh eur.

my goal with this style is to get a decent position averaged in (in my favour) and then to get heavy as it moves in my direction. however it's a fine line because if i get a 100 pips i usually sell enough to cover the original stop and leave it there, if it moves another 50 or so i look to stop at b/e and buy more at that level or on any expected dips.

oh and i'm short nzd/usd

Cool, I hit the right guess. I am very sorry to hear about 'Steve Irwin'. May his soul rest in peace, he was unique.
N/U: I did the same, I opened it up, and closed it around +11 pips, same reason very conflicting signals.
Right now I am thinking about taking long G/C.
My R/R depends upon how strong signal I m getting. Most of the time don't prefer to go beyond 5%, but some time I go very aggressive. It varies depending upon how confident I feel about my signal.
Lets see how things developed this week, no body knows future. What we know is just apply our method precisely.

Are you pure tech? if not any reason for bullish pound?

The short eur/gbp looks interesting to me but that last 100 pip run from 6690 has me wondering.

Best of luck though

Oh yeah, sad news about Steve Irwin, it's a shame to lose someone who made such an impression on so many people.

Yes you are very right this trade is basically very much technical. However, It will take time for other pairs to get strong against gbp. My both trade are not triggered.
If today range is small my convention will be still in favor of Gbp. Lets see.
