Hilary I know you are a girl with largish stops
(Bet thats the best compliment you'll get all day!)
But do you have a maximum drawdown amount or % of capital that you will take
on a day...or is it a pips amount
when I look back at a couple of my bad days..ie larger % drawdown than it should have been. I realise that a max % stop of my capital would have been useful and saved me money independant of my thoughts on the position itself

foale,
I tend to use pips amount. I'm a bit uneasy if the obvious stop is more than 100 pips away from my entry level so I then tend to scale my position size down to restrict the financial loss.
I'm out of the market atm (can't bring myself to buy it up here) but, if I were in, I'd stay long with a stop at around 17920 being the rising support line passing from the low of Thursday through the low of yesterday morning (that would have been an ideal entry ...... I didn't have computers or broadband then unfortunately).

Ive closed my (Paper) GBP/USD @ 1.8060 as its overbought. Also resistance at 1.8100 from the upward trend.
Im am long Eur/Usd as it broke out above its channel. Although I feel that might be a false break out so have a tight stop loss.

So sorry to hear the sad news about David Anderson..
have known David quite a while now
makes you reflect on your own situation
-------------------------
Closed my short from 8065 and lower
at 8031...staying out for a while
though my inclination is for it to retrace to the 1.8005-15 area

i was only thinking about it, and you 2
have already found the balls.........
must be getting old....
looks good for you both for now - agree
it must be overbought, but i'm still
bullish for next few weeks. would just like
it to come back to 179 something for me, and
of course for you 2 as well !

morning david
have a short running on cable, but not very
comfortable with it if you know what i mean.
the 2 cent move since yesterday morning caught
me with me pants down, and i would have much preferred
to be long, and will be happy to reverse my current
position at around 181.20 ish
i can see 185 within next few weeks - remains strong for me.
