To speculate or not to speculate, when & why.. that is the question?,

When is it best to speculate & when is it best to put the order in when you're sure of confirmation of the move?

I think every trade you open is speculation. You may have evidence of a move but you can never be "sure of conformation" of any move, it's still speculating.

That’s fair comment Derek, I’m a little confused as is one of Euler’s lastest videos he like to spread his order over where he thinks the price should hit for the price to go the intended way, technically three orders, see:

Yet in others he suggests only has one order in the market at any one time, see:

Why, why one rule for one & one rule for another?

I guess if its a market where you know you will have a chance to get out unharmed but if the market is moving more aggressively then it is best to wait?

Every market is slightly different, there is rarely a vanilla one fits all answer.

fair enough, just thought any newbie might find that confusing if they’ve watched both videos
