Yeah? Widen those stops to 1000 pips then huh?

Aside from his response, great thread btw :) Keep it up. I typically use stops no more than 10 either. No reason for more.

Are you on a 1 min chart?

No...my immediate concern from the provided trades was that he was getting chopped up on commissions, however he pointed out that he was using a spread ...

1000 pips....one born every minute :D
 
If i had to pay significant commission I would probably be more picky with the trades of course, taking mostly those, which have enough momentum to protect at least +1 tick and thus cover the deal costs.

I didn't mean to step into your thread and post trades uninvited , and I apologize for that. The short signal I posted (sim) never got filled after the post, it was one of those trades that gave me a "DO IT NAOUGHW !!!" signal and never looked back (of course, since I'd already decided to let it go).

I was wondering where you were trading from (e.g. US ,, UK)?

Just the opposite, you are welcome to post your trading ideas or opinions...

I am trading from Western Siberia, Russia... No, it's not a joke, we have an excellent optical internet and the rest of the stuff civilization is supposed to have here. :)
