That may be because you are live and those with heavy pip loads are demo traders like me. I had over 2500 pips with NN10.2 both manual and with EA (verb's codex)

For the record, all my trades are live at my full position sizes. I have been adding positions and holding on these trends for two weeks now. Will be looking to close them up sometime today. I'm somewhere in the area of 2.5k+ pips in float.

Great confidence on the system there, verb.

fxripper- Yeah, sometimes my MPTM got tripped w BE+10 etc. Or the jumping SL got tripped. But yes, I am trading live. Watching the charts is not good for your health, especially when price is choppy. If I could set and come back like Bob does, or do some painting while the pips are rolling in, that will make life much easier.

My trades for this morning is:

I am Short:
EU,
NZDUSD,
AU
GU
GPBJPY
EURJPY

06-01-2012

At NB's request. Here's what I'm looking at for today. In general, I wont be adding long term positions today in prep for NFP. I might scalp in direction of trend today and then close everything before NY open.

Sell:
AUDJPY - already in on multiple positions, holding til NY
AUDUSD - already in on multiple positions, D1 has dropped below 0.8, it might be time to trail positions
CADJPY - already in
CHFJPY - already in
EURJPY - already in on multiple positions
EURUSD - already in on multiple positions
GBPUSD - missed my entry looking to get in
GBPJPY - missed my entry looking to get in
NZDUSD - already in on multiple positions, D1 has dropped below 0.8, it might be time to trail positions
NZDJPY - already in on multiple positions
USDCAD - not in
USDCHF - already in and holding

As I mentioned before, I'm closing my PnL before NY and protecting my profit ahead of that if necessary.

NFP starts trends and ends them so lets see what happens.

Gave this a second thought and have closed all my open trades. Frankfurt coming online in an hour and there should be a lot of squaring of trades in prep for NFP.

I will wait until after NFP, analyze trends then look to get back in next week.

Hi guys. Looking forward to trading any 10.2 insights I have this week. Feel free to share yours too if you want some feedback I potential trade. I've opened up two new accounts I'll be trading this month, one of them is straight 10.2 the other is Shelley EA that I will trigger when the basket pairs have retraced to their opposite tma bands.

Good luck. I have a feeling we won't need it ;)

Trading eur/usd will be interesting now. The daily S/R lines are much farther apart and the pivot is much closer to price action again. It can rally but will it cross the weekly or monthly main pivot. That is the million dollar question. It is possible the gbp could be weaker than the euro over a short period of time. Notice how price has honored the new pivot line in the past. See red line. I could almost bet the house that price will retrace back up to that point, then what? Have a short term rally or bounce and continue its DT.

There are a number of pairs in similar condition to EURUSD such as AUDUSD and GBPUSD. The pairs would only need to climb 2-300 pips to get to the monthly pivots.

My general plan is fading the monthly pivots as fundamentals have not changed and trends for now are still in place.

After the London session, I'll re-analyze trends and then start looking for positions on Tuesday.
