Richard Hill Forex Net Trap

I had meant to ask if others had noticed slippage on IG in the last two weeks or so, and it seems everyone has. It's all there in the T and C's though, so complaining is pointless. Just demonstrates recent market volatility I suppose.

Bending the system. I did this for the first time yesterday, unusally I stayed up past 6.30 to actually do some work, and so had the chart in the background, having a sneaky peek every so often. I noticed it got to about 2 pips off target, and was heading back up, so I changed the stop loss to still keep me in 20 pips profit, and sure enough I got stopped. Keeping the original stop would have left a -10 pips by 8.30 I think.

On the 'is it a trade, isn't it a trade' question, when there was steady rise then small falls on the last two candles, then the rule is no trade, so I did not. And if your'e unsure, then the rule is, if in doubt stay out. That day, going one way would have brought about a 20 pip loss, the other way a 4 pip gain, so hardly worth the risk.
 
Hi fatsharkey, can you please give me the entry price/time and exit price/time for confirm my chart

cheers


Hi Need$$,

I put placed my order at 6.30 for 15367 (after rounding 15368.6 to 15369 - 2) and it got closed at 15317 for +50.

Order kicked in just after 6.30 I think and it was closed by 7.35 (it went down to 15314).

Hope this helps..

I make it entry at 72, just closed for about +16.

Hi Peter,
Were you looking at the bid price, i am not sure if I need to be looking at mid, bid or ask...
or is it dependent whether you sell or buy.. hope you can explain to me.

Many thanks

bid price according to system, just re-read your book.
 
don't forget you have to add the spread on the buy to close the sell trade. So it missed the 50 pips by less than 1 pip. But that's trading and this happens from time to time. Stay positive, tomorrow's another day

"Rookie":LOL:

Today, was just about (only just about) a buy signal, but didn't trigger anyway.
 
it went down more than twice in one go.. was it not a no trade, rather than not being triggered?
 
Hi guys just had the book a few days and made a trade or two last week . today was increasing I thought with 5 decimal places until the end if only very slightly. when you are looking at the MA in Ig index are you looking at the 5 decimal places ??? or 4 ? should I be looking at 4 only ?

thanks for the update good to see, It looks like at least it is working for you currently.
How long have you been trading this system over all ? has it worked longer for you ?
:smart:
