Not really....As I've stated many times over, I tend to enter my trades early when I'm trading multiple pair. As for the GBPCHF trades, there is no increase or decrease in size of each order. Each is of the same size. While I don't have unlimited capital, I do not trade "under capitalized". I will also build trades based on higher time frames, which will require more breathing room.

If you notice the earlier posted trades, as well as the EURAUD trades today, I will trade the turns and ride them to the next, as I have done with other trades in the thread. There is little or no draw down with these trades.

Some of my trades will involve draw down while many won't.

You profit in a short sale by being able to buy the currency back at a lower price than you sold it. Mission accomplished. It's what a market maker does all day every day.

Did you bought at support then added at new high & every bullish close above the high ?
I don't really get it, don't see a W or a M or a candle pattern ...

Thx a gazillion :)
Trapping volume???

I see a "W" that went right into an "M"...I also saw a level 3 low here and was looking for a rise...I see a Low, a Lower Low and then a Higher low...the higher low is tested and held....

I bought off the "W" and sold the 2nd leg of the "M" down, then bought the rise after the low was held...

Shorting as the price keeps rising against you ( in today's case) , not strictly Martingale I know , but nevertheless requiring deep enough pockets is what I meant :) . Just like what the commercials do .

It's no different than this set of trades a week or so ago...look familiar? ;) I have a good feel for where price is going to go. Am I 100% right? No...but I'm right enough of the time that it's very profitable. :mrgreen:
