Oh well, it had to end sometime. Stopped out of my EUR/USD for -25 - and then it bounces a bit - bugger - but that's what it's there for.

anyway hilary come back onto the thread........

Thanks everyone, yes I am thinking of oco's which I have used well with stocks but even more vital with FX.

Davspeed, good to hear you're still around - I agree with everything you say. I've got into the habit of setting widish stops on stocks with smaller stakes & that works for me - much more profitable. Also using cmc s/b.

The other thought that occurs to me is if I (say) set a limit sell, I would place a stop buy above that as well so that a wild ride would take both out and protect me! Agree it's a good idea?

Really going for it now as I have a nice new laptop with lots of screen real estate - Chocolat eat your heart out ;-)

choccy
Unusually quiet ;)

Classic case of a stop saving my bacon - don't I feel smug - BUT tempted to dip in on a long around 2990.

[Ooooooops - found the Edit button have we - you are in a mess aren't you ;) ]

Long EUR/USD from 12960 - GULP !!

[EDIT - things to do - will probably check back in later - am leaving that trade to stew - stops in - but no limit this time]

Correct, mg - that's where I shorted cable 18878...old bungee cat's been at it again and I ended up with a lapful of baked beans.

I'm off to work for less heckling :)

Tasty moves you guys.

Must try the baked beans in the lap method - sounds a bit kinky though.

Now, I've got my hat - I'm off

You wouldn't give me my other one back - the one I'm giving to Jeff has been wellllll used - phewwww - needed to get it out of the house - it's been trying to get out of the cat flap but it hasn't got a magent attached ;)

mg (Commando style)

Heyyy...I get to have tomorrow off work. :))
And after it took a lot of convincing as to why the wheels came off the LMS train precariously perched on one shelf up in the eaves here...and why there are still a couple of beans stuck in the keyboard, I must've got something right this morning after all.

Lots of juicy stuff tomorrow..
