Good afternoon HR, It sounds like you and I are cast from similar moulds, I'm not sure if it's my fear of loss or just impatience, but I like to be in and out of a trade as quickly as possible. As soon as I have got my 20 pip daily target, I'm done. ...

LOL, Welcome to the club, well at least to reception. The "successful traders club" that is. It's very exclusive, and at reception stage very easy to be blackballed. The only way to gain full membership is to prove that you have studied, learned, ...

Hi Xaron, glad your health is better, sad to hear that your trading is not doing so well. Don't let it get you down my friend, tomorrow is another day. My £20K account was down by over 4% but back up now to just under 0.2% down, hopefully back in ...

Hey Micro, thanks for the good wishes, that looks like nice trading the past few months, keep it up.
