Hello Everyone,
Seeing the apparent lack of threads of this nature (just kidding, but read on) I have decided to set up a respectable one here in the TR, the idea being to restrict the "venting of trader venom" to more experienced hands who will be pissed at more appropriate things - the things that will have veterans nodding in agreement, as opposed to the newbies who will naturally be pissed all the time. It is important that when you are angry at the market, you are justified in your anger and not just being a douchebag.
*gulp*
As an e.g, to set you off, I am going to display my most intimate frustration at the GBPUSD price action this last few days. Holy stuck-in-a-crappy-range, batman! I mean, look at the darn chart. It's disgusting. 100 pip range in the last 30 H4 bars or so, and it doesnt look to be moving out soon. Every time I am about to quit my short (different from the one displayed below, please ignore that) I see it reversing and forming a top, then as soon as it plunges down in my favor and I am about to breathe a sigh of heavenly relief, the bastards start buying again. Pin bars, engulfing bars, EVERYTHING has appeared AND failed in the last few days. It's like the laws of physics are going to be abandoned soon, too.
In any case, it looks to be heading for some dollar gain again, it BETTER play out this time. It better. And when I go up to New York in the next visit I'm gonna find those &%^#)*%# bulls who have no f^$#%*# manners and CARVE me some bull COJONES!! ARRGHHHHH!
/end rant.
