Buy or Sell Orders

Beginner Questions
1

For three weeks now the problem i keep having is when I set order limits, either buy or sell limit, it will always remain 1 or 2 pips to launch order before a long reversal. Then I started readjust my limit to be near, increasing my risk, then it will hit the limit and then still run at loss.

Then I decided to go back to previous, but then it won’t hit it again. I have even tried to start placing instant order, but then makes me have more losing trades.

How I feel right now is as if someone is consciously monitoring me and ensuring no matter what I do, I must lose. So frustrated now

Those are examples… It will remain little, infact a small move up would have gotten those orders started and would have had great profit. But then, it wont touch it. #frustrated

For now, why can’t you reduce your position size, set your entry much closer and have a much wider stop loss.

YES - it’s ME ! - I’m the man with the “turney knob” which just moves the thing up and down ! :disappointed:

  • It’s just something we all have to get thro’ mate - the damn thing is extremely good at “wrong footing” you - this is not a “pension” - it is a highly aggressieve and extremely skilled - “opposition” :smiley:

Please do not think you can entry at 0.02 at the same time. You can entry 0.1 then 0.1 in different time. To adjust trade strategy, need to backtest and see a result. After that execute it with your production.
