Trade 3 . Straight to 20 pips , Took on the break of the 5 min . Went straight to target did not have chance to move before it hit the line. However I will gladly take 20pips with an Attitude of Gratitude

:)) :)) ^:)^

"With an Attitude of Gratitude" Love it!

ps: 20pip on a 10 pip target is 1:2 for a four hourly trade it equals to nearly 200 pips!

Trade No 1 of the day, Price was struggling to break the recent high , so had stop gradually moving up , was at -3 from entry , The quick spike took me out , BIG slippage ended at -12. Did anyone else suffer this amount, as not quite sure when moving stop it is registering as keeps jumping back to original

Hi

Check to see if your got two EA's running at the same time as this will give you the problem. i.e one on a 1m & one on a 5m chart.

Cheers

A total of 5 trades today , not all documented , a few computer problems , eventually up +7 for the day which is nearly half percent . I am finding that I am moving the stop too soon and getting pipped out before the trade then carries on to original target. Last 3 trades shown , Must be less aggressive with the stop !!!
