I’ve had some orders that have missed by a few pips over the last few days.

GBP/USD 1.5597 sell

EUR/USD 1.3195 sell

EUR/GBP 0.8500 sell

AUD/USD 1.0150 buy

GBP/USD 1.5480 buy

I’m never one to chase a market, and it’s a failing of mine that I keep staunchly to my order levels. Only if I’m feeling really risky do I decide to get in at a price a couple of ticks different to my order level.

It can make for some frustrating days as I watch would be trades make money.

So how do you manage your entry to trades?

Do you chase and ‘massage’ your levels?

How scared do you get of missing a trade?
