DislikedI'd love to know where this arrogant bullshit comes from. You were the guy two weeks ago saying how your heads messed up, you smoke to much weed and drink and basically gamble with your trading. Then you said you needed a break which you did t take, but now feel confident to talk to others like this. Im just amazed how you've got any subscribers, I think the old ff system of vouchers was better.Ignored
My head is still messed up a bit, but I have decided now that I need to get a job and I'm not going to quit it this time, like I have a tendency to do. I have had good corporate jobs in the past, and I know I can get one again, if I want to and put in the effort.
Trading without a job or trading with money that you can't afford to lose is very hard. I still have a little bit left in my bankroll though, so I'm trading what is left until I can get a job, and trying to turn it into something. One thing that is interesting is the fact that now that I've decided to get a job, it seems my trading has become much more easy, relaxed, and profitable... because I do not seem as obligated to constantly find the next "home run".
I still smoke too much weed, I still drink too much, I still sleep too much, I still play poker too much, and I still trade too much (probably when I shouldn't). That hasn't changed just yet. But I am working on it.
I do feel like my mentality towards trading (and in a way, outlook on life) has changed a bit. I am slowly starting to become a more positive person, and beginning to understand the true nature of losses. I am starting to embrace them. I used to define myself as a very short-term trader, even daytrader, who couldn't stand to look at the sight of a loss even for just 1 penny, but now I consider myself more of a swing trader. It really just depends on the underlying market. Swing trading or higher can increase your winning percentages dramatically.
I also developed a new indicator last week, which I posted in the screenshot, and I am now trying to test it. It seems to have some validity. While I do not make any promises, I took a look at the AUD/CHF chart the other day, noticed that it was trending up (after a gap down), and then noticed that the other Aussie crosses were starting to become bullish too.
And this is coming from a guy who has traded only GBP/JPY and USD/JPY prior to this, with a heavy reliance on technicals.
This is confirmation of the underlying bullish Aussie trend, aka: Aussie gaining strength, and it should last for a while still. That is why I have not closed out of the position yet. I guess a lot of my arrogance comes from the fact that I was so confident in this trade to begin with, combined with the fact that this cobratrader guy just posted the exact opposite of what my research says, and then when given the chance to respond to my inquiry he bailed out and we have yet to hear from him. This guy is the mere defintion of forex noob. Not one chart posted, no reason given why, didn't even respond to my response. I guess I am not afraid to bash people like that, sorry.
