Haha, actually I do spend all day walking the dog.

I tended to agree with Blue, I am not interested in trading either, all I am interested in is making money using priceaction. People ask me what euro is doing or gold etc, I have no idea at all I just trade the patterns that make me money, on any ...

As you say we are all different. I too hate watching trades and I definitely cannot stand being in trades longer than 20 or 30 minutes. Take the trade, fixed stop and target, it is generally over in the time it takes to have a shower, rinse and ...

25% a week on a £10,000 account isn't unreasonable. You have to get the perspective right. What if you had £100k trading capital and want to risk 1% per trade but don't want to risk £100k with your broker. You put 10k in your account and risk 10% ...

Agreed, and I am 100% with you that the markets are totally manipulated, the charts actually tell us that if you know what to look for.

20 trades at a time would drive me insane, I HAVE to be out of trades within minutes, however I am not a scalper and I don't sit watching charts all day. Like you it has taken me years to devise a working system for myself and like you I had to have ...

It isn't necessarily the win rate that stops the 80-90% guys from owning the world it is the mind games that occur when you get past your comfort zone with the position sizes. Risking the weekly shop money every trade is worlds away from risking the ...

Fours years later and? — I imagine you have a very different view on this topic now Blue.

My apologies Patience — I couldn't understand why you were so upset until I re-read the whole thread. The gift of the gab reference was not directed at you at all, it was a reference to real people I have met throughout life that start a ...

Yeah I just remembered why I stopped wasting my time reading or posting to FF.

One mans successful business is another mans failure — Lots of great points from posters and alot of crap too. Lots of broad and bad assumptions from Blue and very few useful points too. I have owned and built many small but successful ...

Mental Pussy LOL — You just described my trading style to a tee. I absolutely detest any sort of drawdown so like you I had to devise a way to enter trades as stress free as possible once the market makers had captured every bit of liquidity ...

A year on and Jets stuff will still be of use to many of us. It is very good his points are carefully thought about IMHO. As for many of the naysayers they will look and feel very silly one day

Point taken but there will be a day when you realise the daily time frames work in EXACTLY the same way as every other time frame right down to the one minute. Trading the dailies is a complete waste, (inefficient use) of time and margin. Why wait ...

If I were you I would stop trying to work out a method that will give you 5-1 reward risk and look for one that gives you 1-1 with as near 100% reliability as you can. Learn to trade the M5 charts, they will very often give you high probability ...

THEY DON'T. Try teaching a few to buy low sell high, they don't have a clue, because there are too many variables, supply, demand, weather conditions, time of day, time of month, colour, style, fashion, the list is endless.

Haha you are one seriously clever dick.

Haha, big talk. Nice try. BS

Blimey, too complicated for me. I like to keep it simple, just double my account most weeks, sometimes more, increase the position size as comfort allows. It works and I know in a few years it will be phenomenal. I have built many successful ...

Your MAs are created by price, NOT the other way around. Perfect reversals off MAs, OMG
