    No, it's something else. You set the pts away and a trailing step. I can't see the 200MA on my platform, only 20,50,100 MAs. Maybe there's a way, but I didn't find it with a quick look around. Don't you need to specify what timeframe you are looking at for your MA? Daily I guess, but I don't know.

    No ATR or moving average stop losses on IG. Only normal, guaranteed, and trailing. You set a step on the trailing one. I don't understand that.

    Citigroup trade stopped out already. I can't even understand why. The price went nowhere near the closing price. Maybe IG can just widen the spread and do this if they want. TextDate MarketName ProfitAndLoss Open level Close level Size PL Amount DateUtc OpenDateUtc 26/08/2024 Citigroup Inc...

    Stock market dealing

    When you say the upcoming rate cut means a turn to defensive stocks, presumably you mean that it's an indication of a weakening economy which means a turn to defensive stocks, rather than that it will have this effect itself? Hope your nvidia trade didn't get stopped out. I was too busy to...

    Stock market dealing

    I got into nvidia because it had started up and dipped back down, there was a longer term trend up, and it's so exciting that it's results are coming out soon. I got out because I had seen resistance in the orange line, and I had a trailing stop loss, as per your suggestion. But I agree, it's...

    There was. Lower lows and lower highs. As per your definition. Maybe the one minute graph is the wrong period to look for them on? But you have also said to look at what the markets are doing on a given day, find a moment to get in, and follow it. So then I'm only looking at the first hour or so...

    The trend was down so I went short, as you would have advised. Strange that you think I went long.

    Downtrend on the 3 minute chart on both the 20 and 50MA. Perhaps you'd like to give a more precise definition of what "the trend" is? Because there are always lots of moving averages which will show different trends. Yes, I made my decision and left the two positions until a pre-decided time...

    Stock market dealing

    iirc I went short because Mara had gone down to vwap and looked like breaking through that. Plus bitcoin was making lower highs and was at a high on a trend. Plus jobs figures were good => less reason to cut rates => dollar stronger => bitcoin weaker. So I'll stop thinking that much. I'll just...
