I don't mind really I appreciate all comments from successful experienced traders. Trading is something I am very passionate about...
you took 65 pips heat on 75000 and exited near entry? curious when you would have exited if it didn't pop just now? the above heat is approx 25% of your acct.
When we touched 2500 I admit I got very worried. This was not my best trade but it worked out..can't argue with result.
Can I make a suggestion? Please post clear entries in the journal. Pair (if only E/U then that is understood in the thread already). Entry point. Target (what you're looking to hit). Stop (even if not set as a hard stop loss, but where you would consider the trade has failed). Also, clarify your leverage please. If you close the position, post as such, and clearly state what the closed position has attributed to your balance in $$. Otherwise this thread is hard to follow, and we'll all lose interest quick. You'll just be left with trolls at that point.
Yes, for right now with my limited acct only trade EUR/USD. My "leverage" I'm not sure...whatever they gave me when I opened the acct. Apparently I have enough buying power for about a 3/4 lot. Yes, i'll start giving a running tally. I don't always have a target or a stop until the trade plays out a bit. But I'll try to be more forthcoming with this.
speaking of trolls, I was doing just fine till you showed up, (I'm short) now look we're right back at 2578
