Josh, I do it 2 ways... with trend? - Pull the trade if it doesn't go next bar CT? - often seen these almost not go or retrace like 50% for a couple of bars and then bang your in and they often go well... - I like these they seem to me to go and ...

I follow this simple method. bar + spread + entry should equal 2% of your account - this is then 1R double up this as your TP for a full 2R tp. Simple... others do different things and I don't think theres a right or wrong here... Just don't be ...

SC, I basically fix the TP at 2R unless... there is an obvious PPZ near by or other traditional 'problem areas' as defined by traditional J16 type trading. I will then use that as a TP instead but only if it still offers say 1.5R at least. I entered ...

Looks like we're all doing fairly well here folks!!! 5 on the trot for me! (1 BE which I include as winners lol!) did loose 3 on the trot before that but with the 2:1 R thats not a problem at all and a good profitable strategy!!

EURUSD short — Short off pin with good divergence. Pin was also a minor daily PPZ - that made the decision to trade this one for me. Messed up my entry a bit and missed 2 or so pips... still managed the 2R Tom

lindsayf, I'm finally getting to the point that I don't really care if a trade retraces or not... many do and come good and many do and go bad. Its never about 1 trade its about 100's.. my back testing shows an approximate 45% win rate with a 2:1R ...
