That's me ! Somedays (often after few consecutive wins) I'm convinced that I'm almost there. Days that I lose one trade after another be it from wrong entry, wrong analysis or simply me being impatient and getting out early I do feel that I'm ...

Nice one guys ! Thanks Medici for bringing it up. Here's my two cents. I'll use GJ as an example. Price usually don't reverse on higher TFs unless the underlying trend is strong. From my understanding I don't think we'll have a strong trend running ...

Good call. Asian equities looking to finish higher on the day. But Nikkei is failing to make new session high thus far. One thing to note is Nikkei had gains last weeks due to the rumour of more stimulus. All that gain might just run dry. That's ...

I want to make you rich and I am going to give you $1000

Interesting thread. No wonder why its attracted many. I can't help but be cynical especially when it comes to things such as this. But I'll give this one a benefit of doubt. There's so much negativity going on elsewhere anyways. On GJ short Nikkei ...

I want to make you rich and I am going to give you $1000

I can't agree more. I have been trading for 2 years now (almost). Started off with demo got familiar with the platform, the lingo. Moved onto "nano" live account. Started trading minuscule lots. Still nothing. I was going nowhere. Things weren't ...
