Jim then said something similar on a webinar of his. It haunted me and only now am I beginning to realise what it means.

What I wanted when I started was the reassurance...

i can only guess but i would say they have probably sold off part of the positions but i know one is holding the whole thing.

she has held from the 2nd pin and not sold any unless a 61 fib retrace takes place. that hasnt happened yet.

i dont know that i could do that but remember there is a weekly chart also that she may be looking at.

Don't mind my newbieness if this is an obvious answer lol


Also.. question on IBs. Where do you enter? Break of 1st bar, break of 2nd bar, or a retracement of some sort?

Thanks

love your chart that much that I have started to collected them and looking through them once a week at least, they really change my perspective.

At this moment for me it's all about visualization when I look at charts, aiming for a day when I could let my trades run to the moon.

glad to see your post!

wish you the best!

simple yet profound. trust me when i tell you that there can be a day when your looking at a chart and you would bet your mamas life you know whats going to happen.

it takes more chart time than most people are willing to give but its true.

how long you ask?

years.

Sounds really Class Orientated but I'm actually calling all FF Serious Traders out.

Here's the deal.
The next few weeks are, as we know, going to contain the slowest trading opportunities of the year.
How 'bout we spill the beans on (not the current) how to observe the Market.

tremendous relic.

im very impressed with your breakdown of this at your stage.

you can demo stocks/futures/commodities without a broker.

end of day data (daily) is free for these markets.

just google it and you will find a bunch.

ken roberts site has a great section thats only 29 a month for this purpose also.

ive used it for years. tools are outstanding. not rec anything other than the tools area so if you look further thats your decision.

I'm So far up a 100~ pips and moved my stop to my first TP zone

Sorry if I sound too much like a kid, I'm just so happy atm.

One big thing I learned is that without a personal confidence thats backed up with hardcore personal evidence that your system works, its impossible to trade successfully....
