If the stop was still in existance, I wouldn't have posted this. It doesn't make any sense to have a stop when I wanted to add. Please pay attention next time. Still holding 2 positions from a BE of 1283.98

Hahaha.. You wish

Adding 2 more at 1262.5

Best question of the day. I made two mistakes from last night, can you spot them??

Yes indeed B1S2, more downside is not likely :eek:

Tomorrow the Volente boys will show up and give us green to prevent us from having a 7th straight losing session in a row.

Based on BE for the entire position, I lost -3.98 on the last 3 adds. BE still at 1283.98 on the other 2. Asking 1290 on the final two.

Stop raised to 1274 now.

Stop lifted to 1266.5

And you could have many small losses that will eventually equalize your so called "big" gain. So the question is, what's the difference from averaging down with a drawdown for a while till targets are hit, and someone taking small losses over and over again till they hit their targets? Under...

Who was attacking me? I didn't see anyone attacking me. You can disregard all you want. but I can disregard yours too :p I've already explained more than once regarding the placement of my stops, so there's no need to have another unproductive debate regarding them. My stops are not...
