Crazy Morning — Looks like the market is throwing a bit of a tantrum this morning. Most of my positions were running against me, so I closed all of my positions and am currently completely out of the market. Currently sitting on -273 pips ...

NZDUSD Open Trade — Okay gang, here's one more. This is a trade I took early last week that I'm still in (currently @ +4 pips). We'll have to wait and see if it works out or ends up a bust. Kevin

AUDCAD Update — Here's an update to the potential trade setup on AUDCAD that I posted over the weekend. Price moved up nicely overnight, so I jumped the gun and entered long this morning. Hopefully, it'll end up being a nice trade. Kevin

No problem, FX_California. Here's one I'm not in yet, but I hope to be in later tonight when my new daily candle opens at 12 AM EDT... Kevin UPDATE: The daily candle closed below the weekly pivot, so I'm still not in this trade yet. I set a buy stop ...

Hi Alex, Thank you for your post and no criticism taken here. One of the reasons I posted that absolutely horrendous trade was to show everyone what I did wrong and what I should have done to make it a better trade. I missed the entry and took the ...

Example #3 — Here's one more example. This is a USDCAD trade that I took a few days ago on 10/13. After a late "sloppy" entry, price retraced on Thursday and Friday, and I'm still in the trade at -83 pips, as the weekly and monthly are still ...
