I'll read it, you're quite entertaining. Lol. Yes FF is like an eclectic mix of magazines at a Dr surgery. There's the well read trash mags that offer eye candy and light distraction, and the odd thread that's like a national geographic containing a ...

Clemmo's Trading Odyssey

TP 2/2 72.019. I'm done for the day, happy with that.

AUD/JPY

TP 1/2 at red cross. The indecision around 72.150 gave me doubt. Will review remaining trade, possibly TP at TL if it bounces

AUD/JPY

I'm very very very tired off nightshift, reading this thread because I love FX.. ( i rarely trade cable as spread is 6 vs UJ 1, though GU can offer a real bang!!) . and I couldn't agree more with this post. I'm a scalper always hoping a trade will ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

For those that don't know, paybackfx (I have no idea who else does it) will rebate per trade. If you trade often it adds up in the background.. Some traders also target positive swaps for holding trades overnight, see Aussie. These help, Cheers h

What's your system?

I hate late entries almost as much as sitting in loss. I am in, or I am out, I am right, or I am wrong. No pyramid in whether I am right, or wrong. A trigger is a trigger, to get in, or get out. A late entry is no longer optimal entry, so should no ...

What's your system?

I tend to max leverage so when I'm wrong I'd rather know it fast and look for a new target. Sitting in a loss burns me !!!! I hate it so much!!! I'd rather pay a penalty and move to greener pastures. It's a personality thing Cheers h

What's your system?

Hey Dave, thanks for your thread. I'm not trading today I'm working day shift fulltime job. After reading your post above I just felt like throwing in my 2c 're XAUUSD, as it rejected 1.5 this am, I would be looking for the breakdown rather than a ...

"AUSSI" my thread and anything I want to put here

Yes I understand I got a bit carried away. We have an expectation of what the market will do based on what we see, but nothing is certain.

The word DISCIPLINE is overused

My partner has a psychology degree (as well as other degrees..., I don't have any) and launched into this while I was trying to quietly review FF A) the runner who doesn't run when it rains, lacks discipline. No argument, not subjective ( there was ...

The word DISCIPLINE is overused

Everything you say is true!. I will share I made $750 profit this week, a big contributor was taking profits too soon so I was primed to "for God's sake let it move!!!". Without that trade I would've finished the week in a loss. I am very happy to ...

The word DISCIPLINE is overused

I've been thinking about discipline a lot, so I just want to add this. For me I hate DD so my trading costs can creep up simply by virtue that I have a tight SL and can swamp my trades, so it might take a few attempts to get my entry. In order to ...

The word DISCIPLINE is overused

I think i understand your line of thought. I have many elusive ideas and thoughts form and swirl regarding the trader i think ill be once im consistently profitable. Oh to be consistently profitable and how would that look for me as a trader ?? My ...

The word DISCIPLINE is overused

Firstly hello 6200, thanks for your thread.. And to edge540 You do realise of course that if you press on the individual trades on his TE the trade will appear on a chart for you to review ? Personally, I love the FF chart lay out, I even trade by ...

6200trading Method

According to my (private) TE I've traded 150 lots this year. Look I'm not putting it out there that I'm successful, I spin my wheels mostly with a couple of hard crashes. It's a work in progress but pepperstone and IC makets both approx $7/lot ...

Are trading costs the main reason of losses in trading?

Not wanting to get involved in any arguments or the like but sitting waiting in the Carpark for someone... I have a few points . 1, I hate DD so having a SL at 1-2pips a touch better than BE is ok for me, I accept that now. Really I want a trade to ...

Are trading costs the main reason of losses in trading?

Apologies for stepping into your journal again but I just realised that I said I was comfortable shorting EU in Asian session even though EU was burning bright, though very uncomfortable buying UJ though UJ had tanked . The answer is I expected EU ...

The Bucking Bronco

I have Steve's candlestick patterns, but not the technical analysis book on the left. I confess I have a 60s red wingback chair by my bookshelf by a window and i do like to sit and flick through the candlestick text. After a few reads theres a ...
