If its working out for you I hope we'll soon some positive results after all that hard work. Do you trade full time or hold a job on the side ?

On buying above and selling below the MAs I should have been careful with my wording there. It's not as simple as that you're right and I know that very well. However I also think that sometimes momentum that starts on lower TFs like 15sec and 1min ...

A while ago you mentioned about trading around the edges. Would this qualify ? Today London open, I wasn't in the trade but I was long in my mind (not trading until after French elections). I appreciate your suggestion by the way about trading less ...

I appreciate you sharing your experience Skyway (I remember you from last year). I also have read this thread from page 1 until the very end many times over the last year and a half and still have yet to digest all of it. If it wasn't for this ...

The journey It's been one full year and a half since I attempted at making it a full time trader and 3 years and a half since I started trading. When I decided to quit my job I didn't have a trading plan and a proven method. I made some and lost ...

No other job with this much earnings potential will give you that much time for you to ENJOY life. I suppose a lot of us in it, for this reason alone. We might be some kind of "type". And its good to be able to depend on yourself, just yourself. ...

That was the most valuable advice I've ever heard from another trader. You speak the truth. I like your perspective, and I agree with most of them if not all.

One thing to add seasoned traders like yourself have an intuition thats developed after years and years of screen time and seeing how price acts various ways in various situations. In my opinion this kind of intuition in itself is essential to ...

I really can't wait for that day where I make a good living out of trading alone. The thought of it alone makes me excited like a kid in a candy store. Considering the amount of work and effort I put into trading I assume the satisfaction will be ...

You're absolutely right I probably should think through where I went wrong with those losers. Back to demo , I don't think I'm ready to place real cash on the line. I know I've still got a lot learn. Sure I have a better idea as to where price is ...

I think todays fake was better than yesterdays or the day before , that's for me. You of course you know a lot more than I do and have traded DAX much longer than I have. I've been having consecutive losers the last few days and its really starting ...

This looks like an up for now. But we have a diversion on daily and a negative candle just below the daily 20EMA - like you said it could go a lot lower. I already had few trades losses and winners. Thanks for posting your analysis. I'm hoping to ...

I would appreciate if you also attached the charts. I was going to go up at least until we had a diversion form on the minute chart. I was aware that Frankfurt open took the price right up to the 1h and 30min 200ema resistance. It was unlikely that ...
