Hi Warrensapp glad to see you're back. Have you still been trading on the quiet, or have you had a break? Cheers h

Interesting to see your trade success is 52%, same as mine ( not my current TE, I just know my history) the difference is my losses are approx 1.5 times my winners, with some exceptional blowouts. I am not in your league ! It does concrete my ...

Exactly. Why is there not a basic code of conduct for this site, clearly stated when you access the site. " Do you agree to treat other users with respect, to not vilify ..." I mean I understand some people have English issues so I'm sure same basic ...

Scammers - Hall of Shame

Feeling really angry and frustrated tonight, ridiculous really as I'm only down $20 this week and $80 overall , hardly a disaster. I'm busy tomorrow so probably no trading til next week. I think next week I will simplify my charts, and forget the ...

Thanks for your response. Yes a bit of a mess. Simply put I do have a habit of trading because I think it will do something more than because it has done something, also committing too much too soon. Happy for feed back. This is why I am spinning my ...

Had the 5pm check in, when life starts to come to the party. TP1/4 just below pivot at 1.11997, TP 2/4 1.1202, moved SL to BE for remaining 2 trades. Made the mistake of reviewing FF views, and people are waiting for EU to crash... TP 3/4 1.11976 ...

came back from lunch to find my shorts dying, so closed them for small profit. This then left me annoyed , mostly I hate trading EU during Asian as it's just a slog. Anyway looking at PA including possible hour hammer I changed my tune and longed ( ...

hoping this will snowball a bit. It's moved below 50 plus 100 SMAs on HR. Risking $10

Seeing EJ plummet I went to EU to see if I could engage. I did, though ultimately I closed the trades for $10 loss due to lack of direction. Naturally as soon as I closed the shorts it moved south. I re entered. Am hoping to get BE, sitting on 8% ...

Ok so an embarrassing start. Thought EJ was moving up with purpose but no it was sucking fools in like me. see pics I had my stop loss lower, in case of failed south move, like with a hammer. Only it wasn't failed ..

Result for my residual EU long from yesterday, stopped out at the "x". This is why I TP3/4 trades during the Asian session, getting a trade to stick through subsequent London and NY is statistically low ( my guess 20%) but definitely a tactic to ...

Hi Anthony, Sorry to hear you're going through your trial by fire. It happens to every trader, it's what shapes you and drives you to leave the game or evolve as a trader. It's an incredibly stressful time , but you will come through it with more ...

Sunny Coasting Along

ok I'm done for the day. Finished in profit which makes every trader happy. Have TP 3/4 EU trades, profits marked by crosses. I was disappointed I'd only made $31 for my efforts today, but I'm looking for consistency and 3% for a day is great. 1 ...

The NZ rate cut seemed to upset the world, but Euro is having one of it's positive episodes ( EU going up, although AUD affected by NZ news too) so I jumped on this, it's moving with purpose. 1 Trade only ,BE. Unsure of TP atm, will probably apply ...

At the end of the hour, bull hour candle loitering at pivot wondering what to do next. I have set TP 2/4 based on TL of HR candles

Ok so my first trade day in 6 days. I sat down and opened charts, looking at currency matrix namely EU,UJ,EJ, and multiple time frames. EU had been grinding back up over the last 6hours with a bullish looking H4 reversal, but stuck on H1. In pic 1 ...

You have my sympathy Sir, been there done that many times. I found your introduction of the word " masochism " interesting . My partner wants me to write an emotional journal for my trading rather than a technical journal. She considers it MORE ...

I'm super tired off nightshift but had what felt like a profound thought so I'll share. The markets are ultimately unpredictable. Yes you can analyze them for trends and patterns, but who really knows what they'll do. Traders are ultimately ...
