SWEEEEET!
Closing my long here as planned at 1235 for yet another +8

Will get long again at 1228, although I really cant see it getting that low.

If we begin to break up again, im getting long at 1240

I think they might rally into the unemployment number and then have a nice spike when the number come out.
long again here at 1237

I tried to warn you, lol. It'll sink in eventually!!

 

[i_c_fed_people]

Lets see what this news does to it in a few mins.....
plan is to close the long if it spikes up 10 points or so, otherwise ill add to long if it takes an (unlikely) drop

edit: bit of a boring reaction, but at least its going up albeit a little slowly. Waiting for the Tday boys to get teh rally started properly

Quote from oraclewizard77:

However, if you are winning 65 - 75% of the time, then going for 1 point is fine. If you are winning 50%, then you could go for 1.5 stop and 2 point win or something like that.

True. He was using a 1.5 stop. Could he still trade profitably? Yes, but why make it harder than it has to be?
