QUOTE
Swing trading sits in the middle of the continuum between day trading and trend following. Swing traders hold a particular stock for a period of time, generally between a few days and two or three weeks, and trade the stock on the basis of its intra-week or intra-month oscillations between optimism and pessimism.

poltekfx is from Belize. seem like a small company. i wonder they have physical office location or not. But the micro lots seem attractive. And they ask people to use Skype to contact them?

QUOTE(Quincy)
here is a different between you and billytong playing without stoploss. From billytong post, considering he can withstand large drawdown, that mean he is using sound money management or he have large capital. Thats why he can trade without using stoploss.

As for me, im using stoploss alright, but not the usual stoploss that most people use. Mostly they are using small stoploss (around 30 pips or so) and is a constant stoploss (every trade set SL to 30 pips.) Mine have large stoploss (or I could say as hardstop) and the value depends on what the market tells me.
*

Yes my friend,you hit the nail head. rclxms.gif and I also agree with you that tight/small SL is bad and really bad.

Last time when I first trading many months ago, whenever i use stoploss, the market seems like to keep hitting my Stoploss then turn around leave you with losses without profit where you suppose to be profit if ur stop loss didnt get hit. mad.gif

Those with small/tight stoploss, you better be careful on the market whipsaws. If you got small capitals, you can trade micro lots, it is the same.

And of cause, a tip here to set your stoploss @ strange numbers if you really want to use stop loss (for example in EU 1.4943, 1.4376, 1.4578.) Try to avoid round numbers or numbers 5, quarter of 100 points ( for ex in EU 1.4800, 1.4570, 1.4665, 1.4775, 1.4625) Check your Fx chart of top/bottoms on each pairs, u often see the market didnt hit those round or numbers 5 and turn around.

for EU, if you watch carefully, they often hit 1.xx04, 1.xx09, 1.xx11, 1.xx19.....22, 28, 33, 67, 74, 88, 98 there are hardly any round or fix numbers. This is just my observations.
