lol, 1:1 risk on 10k units and survives the stop by a single pip. You haven't a clue what you're doing. :facepalm:

I stated nowhere my absolute position size. I am glad you follow my trades so closely but would ask you to please stick to facts. Obviously the results so far clearly speak for myself. I am not in this business to make every trade a winner, I am interested in average performance per trade. Let the law of large numbers be the judge, happy to take your beating should I look much worse after 100+ trades,...so far your post simply reflects a lack of empirical evidence.
The empirical evidence is that you are simply taking random shots. Your first few trades were attempts to call a bottom in Euro with terrible R/R -- the heat taken overwhelmed any upticks in your favor. Half of your pips being long into the weekend with major EU news. Pure gambling. Those early trades were actually preferable to this 1:1 joke in which you averaged into the loser, and one pip was the difference between a 50 pip loss and a gain. It's just random, sh*t trading.
Well, sorry to inform you that sometimes trading involves a bit of luck (in terms of not being stopped out by a pip). Your R/R figures are off my miles. The trade couple days from 1.2450 had a very well defined and tight stop loss as had all prior ones, and it handed a gain of >160 pips (Edit: 196 to be correct). Today's target was not 1.27, thus your R/R of 1:1 is inaccurate. Sometimes I reserve the right to take positions off prematurely if I do not see my view to pan out or momentum is shifting. So, glad you asked but again I ask you to stick to facts and not make up stories such as in most other threads you participate in, with the mere goal to make yourself look good and others dumb. You will not succeed here. This is my last comment to your current remarks because you again start to flame rather than provide constructive criticism, especially in light of the fact that you make up numbers. Anyone can look at my past trades and judge for themselves. I clearly articulate my views and rational behind trades thus I think its far from accurate to speak of random trades. So far the numbers just prove you wrong, and after all thats all that matters not what Atticus' opinion is.
Half of you "gains" resulted from carrying pure risk into the weekend. EU news bailed you out. You lost a ton of pips before that trying to catch the bottom in EUR. You averaged into a loser at 1:1 at 4x nominal size and survived by a single pip. lol yes, pure Champion material. I am trying to be constructive, but you're being indignant.
Bernanke did it again,...speechless. Change in plans required, though equity markets only back to pre FOMC levels. Going long AUDUSD 1x at 1.0190, stop at 1.0155 Going long EURUSD 1x at 1.2695 atop at 1.2670
tone it down buddy, when I added to my short position it went about 13 pips against me, looks like you are searching for peanuts here.
