Central Banks & Big Players

Thank you Tony. Your "normal essential humanity" is still intact. Wonderful. Make it little by little manifest here in the material "form" world.
I am looking for a trading "skype*buddy". Do you know one, by accident?

Quoting MoneyZilla
A regular 8 meters jumper makes around 7500 jumps per year. Lets say the guy practices 15 jumps per training, twice a day. Not counting the other different kinds of jumps performed as a part of the whole package. So, there are at least 150 jumps per week, being practiced. I feel it, the annual jumps number to go over 10,000 jumps. In a 8 meters jumping career, easily 50,000 jumps were made. Maybe even 100,000. Not an expert. But it does make sense to me. Mastering the 6 meters jumping, when one is just a hobby jumper, will require 1/2 of the 8 meters...

Completely right. If you want to master a skill, you have to focus and practice, practise, practise.... Since 2007/9, real & demo combined - I made an average of 20 trades/day, 400/month, about 5000/year for ten years and still NOT there..... Now I am practising to trade only hour/4hours chart, UK & US open, use half of maximum leverage, and stay alert until profitable or go out manual with max stop 5-10pp. Preferance XAUUSD, USDZAR & USDMXN. High spread is no problem with volume & momentum. Goal: double 100$ account before going real again. To become regular with 8/10 small losses and 2 wins who largely make up for the losses. Approaching goal. NOT there as yet. Keep you posted :-)

Tony,
Have you ever used a trailing stop?
If so what trailing stop would you recommend?
Thanks

Oil requires a long term strategy. You'll always get burnt trying to catch those little swings. It's too volatile for that.

Nice to see you're from Montréal. I'm from Hamilton, Ontario. Not too far from you.

Sorry for the late reply Harry! I am traveling. It would be a pleasure!

I go to Gatineau/Ottawa often for family.

Tony, just post me when you are ready for a skype trial. OK?
