No, if you were a mature rational adult you’d apologize to Xela. As would the other creeps. BTW, your own posts are weak trade craft-wise. Pick up your game.

Agreed completely and forwarded to site ownership. I do not intend to continue to subsidize this trollfest. I contracted to sponsor and promote serious Trading and trade craft communal discussion - and right now this is not ET I’m sorry to say.

Please go over there to ForexFactory and leave ET. It’s a start. Baron, please start banning these trolls. If Xela can’t post without this kind of harassment then maybe ET isn’t the best place for my sponsorship dollars Why should I be sponsoring a site that chases away serious traders ...

Fucking A. Dead nuts on.

And Pekelo has changed his avatar from a dude to a sex kitten. Xela envy or one of the world’s greatest gender reassignment surgeries ?

You surely did. But if I may posit a slight variation on your prescient foresight: deep pockets has been buying every dip for the past nine years, and the last ten days of price action is no different. Shallow corrections = ACCUMULATION

Well since we’ve now devolved into value statements on this thread I’d say it represents a segment of the culture who in all likliehood have an easier time of it having a relationship over a computer or iPhone screen as compared to the real social interaction deal - at least on a quality level...

Last three pages are a perfect illustration as to why ET has gone to the shitter. Joke’s on me I suppose because I’m financially supporting it.

X 2. True and factual statement

Just FWIW, depending on what you are doing (ie, Swing Trading) adjusting your stops to be smaller and having a 2:1 R/R ratio may not be practical or even wise. Depends on your product’s vol, trading range, trading frequency, and some other factors.

I really could care less about the Member's avatar. Xela's posts are quality and there is a dearth of that here on ET. Which is of course the central issue of the day with ET - the current lack of quality trade craft posts. An experienced trader can peruse ET in like five minutes - which is...

Goldman Sachs is predicting four Fed rate hikes in 2018. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-11-18/goldman-sachs-sees-four-2018-fed-rate-hikes-as-u-s-growth-gains

Every client of mine who tries a trailing stop regrets it - it gets them out of a winner too early. The TA dynamic signal is just that - too dynamic. Since it's an on-the-run sampling of data, IMO it is too much of a moving target. Again, recent market highs or lows, S/R, pivots, BB's...

Might I suggest you use a volatility based study like a Bollinger Band, or S/R levels, or Pivots Points, for each position you have on. And set your level slightly worse - make sure you get the fill. For several really good reasons I have found that using a static percentage level of equity...

I'm pretty sure that was the insemination phase of human reproduction... o_O

If I might be somewhat judgemental (my apologies in advance) - you are so fortunate in that you have laid bare your path to improvement. You will never buy a true legit "bottom" or sell a "top" in your life. Possibly on a micro-structure short term but never macro. Please reconcile with...

Goldman Juice. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-11-18/goldman-sachs-sees-four-2018-fed-rate-hikes-as-u-s-growth-gains

"The U.S. economy is heading into 2018 with strong momentum that’s likely to boost wages and inflation more broadly, requiring the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates four times next year, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. economists said in a research note. The New York-based investment banking and...

At the risk of offending someone I've never seen traders have much luck with EW or other variations and permutations of wave count or predictive market cycle software on real markets on a real portfolio. If someone knows otherwise by all means please let us know. YMMV

Personally, these days I set my profit target and stop-loss level at the time of trade entry. I use modeled historical vol and trading range to establish these levels. These orders are GTC limit orders so when I'm out I'm out and no dicking around.
