I do let my trade to run out most of the time.
The target 1.13XX might not come so soon. Most likely, PA will hover around 1.12XX, after a quick visit to 1.19xx.

Anyway, this pair is for SELL mode only, won't chase it up. Look far back to january till now, this pair has no value for meaningful trading.

It is the fundamental that make make hesitate to chase EURUSD and all GBP up, regardless of how good my system indicating a strong buy signal.

I don't understand and experience Brexit but all I know that it brought about unfathomable uncertainty to eurusd and GBP. Market does not like uncertainty - hence holding sell till parity and go london for holiday (this I posted early this year).

As for EURUSD, I think smart money is accumulating short positions from low of 1.12x - 1.119x before sending this pair up for FOMC.

Maybe, AUD and CAD pairs offer better RR.

MoV ah MoV, if bullish trending, go long, if bearish trending, go short. Gotta speak the lingo, no? Can try cTrader, or other broker s' in house platform, or web based tool like trading view.

that mean different from stocks right, As I play stock , tactically is bullish SELL , bearish buy in

for Forex is kinda opposite


More like for cast , if noticed next trend is GO up , you will BUY in

if you noticed the trend seem going down you SELL in ,

close trade.

So basically on Forex is follow the trend

forex is about learning to track the signal, observe the pattern to short or long, it is either long, or short or hold. there is a lot of things to learn, don't expect to jump into forex and earn BIG and QUICK bucks! yes, you can reach that level if you survive the draw down, stopout due to big news, NFP and such, fakeout play by big liquidity firms like hedge funds and big banks.
it would be years before you can make yourself a fx trader in a pool of big shark where 95% of the swimmer couldn't make it onshore. good luck.:D

I trade all USD pairs Jpy pairs and all cross pairs. I don't trade chf pairs cause they don't provide any guarantee stop losses cause of the chf peg last year. I enter eurusd because it met my criteria for a long.

To enter trade i have 14 criteria need to be met before i enter the trade. But even with this 14 criteria, it also won't give you 100% of winning, but it just make you trade higher chances of winning.

JPY - seems to me BOJ might intervene soon, purchasing officers had just completed their purchase of raw materials. :s13:
