Not liking much at the moment. Be careful on XXXJPY shorts, price action really not good, and will be hitting support quickly, so move SL to BE quickly.

I certainly agree kwanann. I've never seen the pairs grouped quite so closely together. A lot of pairs riding the WP seeking direction. I'll continue to "sit on my hands" for now......

Sit ... but do not sleep.

Snoozers are losers! :)

While we think nothing is happening - it's all happening.
The Forex markets are fluid and N-E-V-E-R still.

Quiet ... yes
Still ... no

The GBPJPY is an accurate (99% positively correlated) proxy for the xxxJPY Index above

I've actually been using 10%. I just want something that will guarantee I don't go beyond. Up till now I've had to continually watch iProfitTracker!!!

Thank you.
Hmm i can think of a million ways where that 10% DD will go wrong, but agreed, a hard limit is always a good thing :)

Personally i trade in such a way that i will never hit 10% DD if i'm afk

If i know i will hit 10% DD due to larger than normal lot sizes, then i make sure i'm in front of the PC to do corrective actions if needed

Good job on the AUDJPY, saw the EA take the same trade, also entered a trade at DMS1, can't figure why though since RSI was not pinned
