I try to not watch it. Have been patiently been waiting for D1, H4, H1 setups and only look down as far as the M15 for verification of what I think is happening. I love the M1, but the spread is just brutal. Ends up being 50% of my risk area ...

More hassel than it's worth. Unless you've stolen some algorithm from Goldman Sachs I doubt anybody cares that much.

Leverage is a scapegoat and a favorite boogeyman among rookies. You calculate your position size by first defining how much money you want to risk...often in percentages. Then, you divide your risk by how many pips your risk area is between entry ...

Is learning to trade hard? You bet your ass it is. I've never met anybody who could trade profitably with less than 5 years of experience. My own journey starting around 2011 (with bitcoin) has been a cycle of ups and downs. Learn something new, ...

Your broker is probably an honest business. Mostly honest anyway. They aren't watching your stops. They don't care. They make money off of commissions and spread. The reason you're losing money is because you don't have the education necessary to ...

There really should be I think the people who post private messages verbatim are the worst kind of scum.

Starts and ends near where liquidity gaps do. Complicated answer though.

Don't count on it. His sole purpose for registering at FF is to enlighten us as to how hopelessly stupid we are.

The fact that you have "god" in your username speaks to your unstable, narcissistic mental attitude. You think you're god and that the rest of us are little peasants with pea sized brains. Unless you want to shine some of your (constructive) divine ...

You're an idiot and the second person to ask that, so if you'd actually read along the thread (which you must be doing since that's an old ass post), then you'd know I was stopped out and it wasn't any big deal because I manage risk like any sane ...

I love trends. Trends get people to do stupid things like buy when something is already expensive and sell when it's already cheap. Edit: With regards to earlier Yen trade post...going ahead with a stab at a short. It looks pretty good on the chart, ...

Pulled it so removed the post. Think this is a fakeout and that they are putting in shorts above recent highs after taking stops. Waiting to see if they can break back into the zone first before confident enough to reverse. FYI same thing happened ...

Go away, took a quick look through your posts to see what you're so big headed about and turns out all of your posts are arrogant, worthless bullshit.

Not regarding trading in particular, but self-employment in general...anybody with disposable income should have or be building an emergency fund for events like this. Hoping that your boss is going to pay you while you're in the hospital for weeks ...

And that is being free.

I get your point, but I feel compelled to point out some pretty amazing benefits that make this much better than "any other" job I can think of. Despite the fact that the learning curve is severe from heavy amounts of misinformation and the fact ...

Just closed this last one. About 6.3% net gains today. Risked 1% and 2% per trade respectively. Not shabby and good entries with tight stops.

Why would it be a big deal? I set a stoploss with the order like any sane trader does. Take the loss, accept it, move on to the next trade.

Out for now. Still would be looking to sell, not buy at this price. Naturally, my yen trade (pending order) worked out beautifully. 5 pip stop, 22 pips down atm. Too bad I didn't have enough margin to execute it. I'm not going to lie that kind ...

Encouraging but not worth much until we get a drop below 1.09600. I love the accuracy of the M1 chart but nerveracking to watch and hold my position with such a tight stop lol.
