[10:57:32] caprica1 : morning guys.
[10:57:42] bros1234 : welco caprica
[11:01:04] Stalion : [10:43:13] Stalion : [10:25:19] Stalion : so, we buy gbpusd @ 1.8574,for a 1st target of 1.8616 and a 2nd target of 1.8641
[11:01:38] Stalion : 1.8574...not 1.9574
[11:03:12] tundope : hi bros
[11:03:37] bros1234 : hi tundope
[11:04:17] bros1234 : i was wondering if stallion can tell us reason for the buy
[11:05:33] caprica1 : I've just tried t oplace an order on my demo account, and it keeps saying off orders. What does that mean?
[11:05:53] bros1234 : maket has passed that price
[11:06:25] Stalion : nothing to be confused about, caprica...as at the time of my writing, price on the gbpusd was at 1.8574..but I wrote it out as 1.9574...dats where d typo came from...but by checking ur charts at dat time, u wud've known what we were talking about
[11:07:49] r2r : stalion are we waiting for price to retrace below 1.9574 before putting in the buy order?
[11:09:16] bros1234 : fxdd price 18584 so not a bad buy based on his target
[11:09:32] caprica1 : the ask price is now 1.8577. I should still be able to place a buy order with a 1st target at 1.8616 though no?
[11:12:54] Stalion : not a bad buy, as long as its okay with your risk to reward ratio...and placing ur stop loss would be below the low or support area...
[11:13:57] bros1234 : Stalion...sorry to bother u...any reason for this buy...technical...am curious
[11:14:28] Stalion : dats like 40 pips or so....
[11:17:18] Stalion : yes,bros1234....we hit the 60% sound barrier early this morning, and chances are price tendsto reverse around that area and form a new trend...
[11:19:21] bros1234 : Stalion...i was thinkin the major trend is down though oversold and i saw a 123 pattern on the 1 hr so me thinks it might still break that barriar and cret a new low...but thank i will be watchin from here
[11:22:38] Stalion : no probs....we sit back and watch....
[11:23:11] Stalion : where's price now at your broker?
[11:24:57] bros1234 : fxdd...18561...
[11:26:33] caprica1 : GBPUSD now at 1.8559 on my window.
[11:27:02] bros1234 : caprica1...yeah
[11:29:54] Stalion : on the USDCAD, at 1.0648, we would likely see price going up to 1.0695 first...then to 1.0714
[11:29:59] bros1234 : caprica1...sorry...the trend is down so i think...it will change soon but i dont know when...
[11:30:15] caprica1 : my S/L is @ 1.8515
[11:30:50] caprica1 : yeah i know bros1234, all my signals are short. lol
[11:37:03] Stalion : market takes its cue from technicals and the fundamentals just agree - I bet small now that now that everybody sees doom and gloom over EUR and GBP - they might reboud..
[11:37:29] masif1 : caprica - is that your stop loss on gbpusd at 1.8515
[11:37:54] masif1 : how did you come to this?
[11:38:11] caprica1 : yeah thats the s/l masif1
[11:41:41] fxjedi : hi all
[11:47:35] fxjedi : several highly automated and sophisticated alghoritmic funds lost huge somes this round... most not planning to pay out any redemption to investors this year... list is quite long and goes to the core of the more sophisticated pfolios built in wall street
[11:58:05] fxjedi : Dovish BOE To Push GBP Even Lower - BNPP 0833 GMT [Dow Jones] Following dovish comments from the BOE's Tim Besley, while UK recession fears grow, the GBP is likely to fall further against the USD and EUR, says BNP Paribas. "GBP/USD is likely to break
[11:58:33] fxjedi : through the recent lows at 1.8520, to open downside potential into the 1.82/1.18185 area," the bank says.
[11:59:00] tundope : lol
[12:05:49] r2r : attempt to move prices lower so the bank can buy?
[12:06:20] boludotun : hi everybody
[12:30:14] fxjedi : looks cable is going higher
[12:37:36] fxjedi : going higher!
[12:37:54] bros1234 : yes
[12:38:12] bros1234 : 18616 now
[12:38:39] masif1 : just hit our first target!
[12:41:13] eugen3000 : did you move sl to be when 1st target hit? or just leave to hit sl or 2nd target?
[12:48:59] Stalion : yes, masif....1st target hit....42 pips in less than 2 hours...
[12:49:23] Stalion : $42 minilot,$420 standard lot on the gbpusd live call
[12:50:02] eugen3000 : Stalion could you please answer my question? thnx
[12:50:31] Stalion : we take the rest minilot on the 2nd target...move stop loss 20 pips above initial stop loss
[12:51:36] fxjedi : cable at 18626 and advancing, stallion
[12:53:03] eugen3000 : thank you
[12:58:16] masif1 : 2nd target is getting close
[13:09:58] Stalion : so, remember guys, as our first target have been hit, we place our stop loss at our initial entry point and let d rest of the lots run on our second target..that way, we lock in profits on our first target and worse case scenario, we breakeven if our 2nd
[13:14:41] Stalion : target doesnt get hit
[13:14:44] fxjedi : very smart move, stallion
[13:21:33] Stalion : eugen, since the first target has been hit, we put our stop loss at our initial entry point so as to breakeven, IF price doesnt get to our 2nd target point...its jus a way traders insure against going back to losses when they are in profits...anything can
[13:22:22] eugen3000 : yes i understand, i just asked, because you said before this: [10:50:31] Stalion : we take the rest minilot on the 2nd target...move stop loss 20 pips above initial stop loss
[13:25:03] Stalion : happen, u know...we've all experienced where we see our paper profits going higher but price retraces and eats up those potential profits...thats why we lock in at our initial entry point..
[13:29:03] Stalion : of course...that was based on the prevailing market conditions as at then...
[13:38:01] albashir : hello room
[13:38:28] albashir : wats on the market for today
[13:40:23] fxjedi : i think stallion was saying first step was to go up 20 pips above sl, then second step to cover stop loss at inital entry point.,
[13:44:04] albashir : wats the entry point or was he talking on news entry or making use of some indicators??
[13:44:36] albashir :
[13:45:32] albashir : ..jedi, u still dey?
[13:48:57] anddy26 : good day folks...do you have a fixed set of pairs you deal with or just the ones that show the signals
[13:49:54] Stalion : hi albashir, anddy26...
[13:50:26] Stalion : Not predefining your risk, not cutting your losses, or not systematically
[13:50:49] Stalion : taking profits are three of the most common—and usually the
[13:50:54] albashir : hey, Baba... isaw u were away then logged off... was just asking wat the info for today is all about
[13:51:01] Stalion : most costly—trading errors you can make
[13:51:52] albashir : ok... got it & noted!
[13:53:28] r2r : usd/cad beginning to take off like u said Stalion
[13:53:41] anddy26 : hi stallion Masif has told me to check you guys out..ur doing better than our system.lol..we we trade EOD usualy
[13:54:48] albashir : r2r, wats d info on UCAD
[13:56:40] albashir : Stalion wats d trading plan on UCAD
[13:57:07] r2r : scroll up and read
[14:00:04] Stalion : [11:29:54] Stalion : on the USDCAD, at 1.0648, we would likely see price going up to 1.0695 first...then to 1.0714
[14:03:32] r2r : usd/cad chart is sooo messy I dont know how u can read it Stalion
[14:23:46] r2r : price rejection in usd/cad
[14:25:44] Stalion : yes...dats the news dats about to come off the US....seems its negative for usd....so we hold off our buy on the usdcad for now,
[14:28:07] r2r : but the news isnt out yet!
[14:28:27] r2r : are these the ppl in the know moving the price?
[14:36:06] albashir : Stalion does tis mean we close our position on ucad?
[14:38:39] Stalion : from what we could deduce from the news, looks like the PPI was higher than expectations, so its favourable to the dollar
[14:39:10] albashir : so .....
[14:39:21] tundope : yeah u got dat rite
[14:39:34] tundope : its dollar buying time
[14:40:03] Stalion : so we are seeing the dollar going up, while gbpusd is going down due to news
[14:41:43] masif1 : we got dtopped out on the gbp/usd
[14:41:50] masif1 : stopped
[14:42:09] masif1 : therefore we broke even
[14:45:29] Stalion : yep....breakeven on the gbpusd with a first target haul of 47 pips...
[15:01:34] Stalion : usdcad is now going our way
[15:13:51] tundope : 50 pips left to go on the usd cad target
[15:22:49] Stalion : remember guys, in trading, u dont need to go for the home run or risk all in just a single trade...chances are you might be right or wrong...a 40 pip sl,depending on ur equity, gives price some wiggle room to move and confirm whether we r right or wrong..
[15:24:44] r2r : Stalion is it worth looking at usd/jpy 1hr double bottom ?
[15:30:04] Stalion : yep...nothing bad in dat....looks like the usd pairs are in a range...market is busy digesting the news,u know...technical analysiswise, usd pairs are supposed to go down, while pairs like gbpusd are supposed to go up in the short term..but d surprise
[15:32:00] Stalion : favourable news from the US have brought in a state of indecision..so, who would win the fight? technical analysts or news traders? personally, its the camp that puts in the biggest funds to support their bias that is going to win
[15:40:36] albashir : got stopd out
[15:41:13] albashir : on ucad.....fx is not 100%...
[15:41:34] Stalion : 1.8693 next target
[15:42:39] albashir : Stalion wat pair is this?
[15:43:11] Stalion : how come, albashir, u got stopped out on usdcad...?
[15:43:12] Stalion : Stalion : on the USDCAD, at 1.0648, we would likely see price going up to 1.0695
[15:43:36] Stalion : first...then to 1.0714
[15:44:09] Stalion : if u used a 40pip stop loss, ur risk would've been like 1.0608
[15:44:31] Stalion : price is still at1.0642 on the usdcad right now...am i right?
[15:46:03] Stalion : or where did u enter on the usdcad?
[15:48:14] albashir : I actuall entered @ 1.0667 and had 30pips sl
[15:49:30] albashir : I came in late...
[15:50:08] albashir : well lost some $90...
[15:50:36] Stalion : that means u didnt follow d call and did opposite of what was given out on the chatroom..well, u u cant blame anyone for dat, my friend..
[15:51:36] r2r : nice call on nzd/usd tundope
[15:52:17] Stalion : price on the usdcad is now at 1.0655...7 pips higher dan our initial trade call...
[15:52:19] albashir : i take the blame i came in late and saw a buy order...( I think) & dats wat I did...
[15:52:24] r2r : how man currency pairs do u follow?
[15:52:34] r2r : many
[15:57:13] Stalion : for today,just two....gbpusd and usdcad...we've already made 47 pips off our 1st target for cable...before breaking even on d 2nd target point...looking at usdcad to give us the next set of pips...also keepin an eye on cable to see if it would breach 2nd
[15:59:16] Stalion : target....it looks like cable and usdcad are trading opposite each other...one goes up, d other tends to go down..
[16:07:46] Stalion : PPI release was higher than expectations,quite favourable to the dollar
[16:08:39] Stalion : 15 pip profit on the usdcad
[16:09:38] Stalion : trying to break above d 1.0663-7 resistance barrier..
[16:12:05] Stalion : if it does, then up we go for almost another 47 pips on 1st target
[16:35:45] Stalion : usdcad is not behaving the way its supposed to...so we cut it off at breakeven
[16:35:57] Stalion : 1.0648...
[16:37:13] Stalion : so anyone that is on that usdcad trade could let it off...our 47 pips on cable should be quite enough for today...
[16:38:33] r2r : good call
[16:41:41] Stalion : thanx,r2r....lets not forget that cable might still go up to a target of 1.8693...so lets take note and keep our fingers crossed,shall we?
[17:03:37] eugen3000 : thnx stalion, and see you tommorow
[17:10:47] r2r : thanks Stalion, cable moving up - fingers crossed
