grin grin. I am just pushing you na. That is just what I was explaining about hedging if done right. But you know brokers can be funny. Widening spread up to 50pips, you are sunk ,lol. Wicked people grin
Oh, I forgot to consider the wider spread during market open.

And what happened to vice versa
Let's say you left a buy position on Friday and then placed your TP at 140.470 (red line), on Monday you got amazed because your position was closed at 141.870 where the price resumed which is above your take profit, and you earned an additional 40 pips aside from your TP.

It is also similar to positive slippage because your position was closed at a much better price.


Edit: I think you already know it. You're just pretending that you don't know. Jeez

Someone please shed more light on this
Let's use the gap on GBP/JPY last Monday as an example.

Assuming you left a sell position on Friday and placed a stop loss just above the previous high (red line).

Then on Monday, there was a gap and the price opened at 141.870, your broker will then close your position in that price instead of your stop loss because it is where the price resumed. And you lost an additional 40 pips aside from your initial stop loss.

It is also similar to price slippage because your position wasn't closed on your desired price. smiley

Yes this is wrong in the eyes of other people. But on the other hand, it's their life, they can do whatever they want with it. I rarely drink alcohol and I'll look for a woman who's the same as me.

@JLINE This is how I draw my lines. Need your opinion about it.

From the pics you uploaded, it clearly shows you don't have a trading plan...why did you enter those trades ? What were you thinking will happen in the pair ? Seeing you enter sell and buy within two days interval,were you really trading with the trend ?
I'm actually scalping the m5 and m15 charts on this pair using RSI and Parabolic SAR. But after blowing my small account for the 6th time, I decided to remove all my indicators and will now just use Fib retracement and trend lines.

Trade Only With The Trend

This is my number 1 and golden rule. The most important rule of my strategy and the backbone of my trading success: Trade only with the trend. It is unacceptable to break this no.1 rule. If I can't stick to this one important rule, then I am no different to the amateur/mediocre trader.

This is the fundamental rule of all; Trade only with the trend. If I can't execute one simple rule, then I am not a professional. It is that simple; Trade only with the trend, nothing more. People lose money because they don't follow this rule, period.



========================
Explanation:
Do not overlook the most important lesson here in trading. And here is the lesson in bold:
"How can you become a professional trader if you cannot execute one basic/simple rule consistently?"

The alphabets are the basics... Trading with the trend are the basics... The difference between a Professional and an Amateur is that a Professional have mastered the basics. How far do you think you will go without mastering the basics?
I feel a bit guilty.

But thanks for the WoW and inspiration.

I've known this rule for almost a year already (I started live trading in May, 2016). I thought that the "trend is your friend" saying was easy to follow but unfortunately I forget about it during trading.

We'll see my progress. I'm going to post my trade history here.

@JLINE How many times did you wipe out your account before you started to become profitable?

This is a good question grin


PS: I wiped out my micro acc. 6x already due to wrong scalping.

I'm trading my favorite pair the wrong way.

Well, they're both ECN brokers and both have tight spreads. Maybe the CS of Exness is a little better than FXTM.

If you correctly add your Fibonacci points, you will get the 50% mark exactly resting on the same resistance level I have drawn.

In conclusion, I believe this pair will have a massive sell next week.

I hope this help sir Orfilla?
Wow thanks a lot. Now I'll put sell limits with tight stops of course.

Hello. Do you currently have open trades with the GBP/JPY? Or could you share your thoughts about this pair?

It's my main pair actually.

wamiikechukwu:
GBP, after the election call, i don't think nor believe the GBP can withstand such level, despite USD is weak, but i see the pair coming down.

any objections.
I think it will test the broken resistance first at 1.2700 handle before it will breakout of the 1.2900 resistance.

Just my opinion.
