Default Guess I never used that

I am more farmiliar with trailing stop
from forex.com, I should test out the trailing stops in the demo acct,
as a few longs from down low with trailing stops would have gotten pretty high before selling if you had a good retrace spread.
But if your set to 50. Wow I hate to give back 50 pips. BUt as Andrew said you never know when she is ging to stop.

I learned this the hard way when she was on her way to 251 and I was shorting from 225 and up. I went broke LONG before 251 came.
So I imagine you can undestand my hesitance or natural anti-short GJ sentiment.
