welcome splash, like the analysis.

at some point, to avoid the timing problem on here (it is a bit of a hassle) i think we should all get on myfxbook.. trades then instantly verifiable

Lol how would that help,as long as we post straight away we should only be a few pips out,and most importantly,Myself, wacky and others trade full time and depend on this,not really got time to post on here,your site and take the trade all in time

no as i dont use any of those in practice, just simply "joint" execute my trades on an oanda demo account.

I just can not see everyone signing up to that.

its hard at times and we all call a fraction late sometimes.whatever you do dont let the thread get control or affect your trading, i do it because it helps my discipline,and that should be the main reason.at the end of the day,the chances of us ever meeting or affecting each others life is small. For all we know wackypete is an old woman in a rocking chair.

I find that having to explain the trade to others makes me examine my rationale about it on a whole new level. I don't do it enough.
My trade was posted a little late i know, but in my defence it had been so long since i posted a graph that i took a few minutes getting my act together. The graph screenshot itself was taken at the point of taking the trade as you ca see and it doesn't show the subsequent spike down. Besides, i've trawled through enough of these threads to know that someone who consistent regurgitates late calls is asking for the jackals to be let loose on them.

Absolutely, it happens. Its just it opens up a can of worms if we start posting late,but it happens to us all,particularly when exiting after spikes down etc. Your reasons for doing live calls are spot on. I also like the simplicity of it. What else do you need, keep it simple add control emotions and discipline.

aud trade stopped for 1.027. EUR support is evident, I continue to stay in the trade given how saturated the market is with shorts, stop 1.267. happy to hold overnight as I expect ECB hold rates tomorrow which should help/

 

[splashy]

aus/usd long 1.2890

 

[sj8070]

exit EURUSD 1.2723 +12 (those following my live fxbook portfolio will notice my volume f*** up on this trade which actually worked in my favour, very jammy)

 

[splashy]

aus/usd long 1.2890

just having a little punt on this s/l 1.0261
30 min pin on yesterdays low and dollar index showing signs of retracing

 

[Lord Flasheart]

still waiting for aj to break down further

 

[Lord Flasheart]

seems total chop,will leave trade with stop at b/e and take olivia flasheart for a swim,back later

 

[splashy]

aus/usd long 1.2890

Have to go out so exit trade @ +1 (i like to take something from the SB company!)
If i had the chance to put trade to b/e i may have left it running but not had the opportunity.
