Sometimes the filter will prevent a buy trade. Yeah, it saved you at least a head ache for you today.

This may be a long one.

I will keep an eye on the EA that failed to trigger this morning. I'm a bit suspicious as I have the following warning message on my MT4 experts tab that was logged at 0615GMT:

22:15:06 TurboMorningTrade_EA_1.0 GBPUSD,M15: zero divide

Not sure whether it is a coincidence that this happens the day after I change the EA settings.

Sent you a msg.

Ok, just a little update on the trade from last night. It currently is still in a draw-down. Tonight's possible set-up could be a buy. That in mind, I will not be making a buy because that just could be double jeopardy (double risk). Now, if it turns out to be a sell, I will do a hedge because the normal rules apply and won't effect the draw-down.

Now, when there are these draw-downs, it can be a good time to pick up some extra pips if one isn't badly leveraged to begin with. I started a buy after the original trade was already -80 pips so that can potentially earn me a little extra % for the week.

With the $2M account, for some reason that account failed to trade at all. Because my other accounts did trade, I felt it would be ok to go ahead and make a trade. I entered about 50 pips below where it would have opened a trade so, assuming the trade goes good, should pick up about 10%.

The drama continues.

No short signal today for a hedge. Cable continues South.

It managed to slip in a sell but only got +1 pip.

View account.

Things are headed north at the moment. More drama for the standing trade.

Another short lived short hedge this morning! One pip. Standing trade now got about 150 pips left before it self destructs!

What? Oh you of little faith.
