So you're willing to make absolute statements, but not qualify them.

How many pips are you willing to risk, on average, for these 2-3 pip gains?

2 losses,30 winners, out of 32 trades

Poker is in fact similar to trading. Both are games of probability. And yes, there are tells in the market. Going back to flipping coins, are you suggesting any trade has only a 50% chance of winning? If so, that's ridiculous and you obviously ...

EURUSD

Yes, all traders can apply technical analysis equally . That's not money management - money management concerns capital risk on a trade. What you are talking about is finding +ev trades, and many skilled traders use technical analysis to ...

EURUSD

Insane. I shorted just one minute and five seconds before that, stopped out at 3780 .

EURUSD

You're confusing me with the original poster if you think I went long. My point was that there was something at that point - there always is. Something else I will point out is that you will often be incorrect, so you can't assume that anyone who ...

EURUSD

It's a minor level of support.

EURUSD

You didn't cause any offence, and I don't mean to do so either. It's just that so many posters blindly state that it's too risky to risk more than x% (usually 1% or 2%). Most don't seem to understand the mathematics behind money management, and just ...

EURUSD

Stating a percentage is pretty ridiculous since everyone trades under different conditions. Your statement is mathematically incorrect anyway. We don't need much of an edge to risk 2% - most profitable traders should have an edge more than large ...

EURUSD

A far, far smaller amount than you're using. Any loss should feel insignificant, and a losing stretch should be nothing more than a little frustrating.

EURUSD

Better to have a foundation before dealing with risking a meaningful amount of money, otherwise other issues arise, such as doubt in ability. Learn to trade, then learn to live with it.

EURUSD

Trailing stop has nothing to do with limiting early losses by getting comfortable in demo before live trading. A good trader should be focused on both wins and losses. Capital preservation is important, but the whole exercise is useless without ...

EURUSD

Real. I'm shooting for more than that .

EURUSD

Sure it can. The trader can lack the skill to profit, potentially blowing a lot of money, and unforeseen movement can blow those tight stops out of the water. No idea. I had price at 4021-22 as well.

EURUSD

Got filled for a short at 1.4035, but I don't have price anywhere near there?

EURUSD

Rubbish. Better to get an idea on demo than to blow thousands, as most seem to do.

EURUSD

What a messy chart.

EURUSD

I like it, seems ready to fall further. Not sure what you mean.

EURUSD

Doesn't want to do a lot of things until it does.

EURUSD

I like it, but then I'm biased because we may use similar methods. Faulty data, because I'm not seeing it.
