DislikedThanks,
i'll stick with demo for now. Coz i've calculated my risk skew and its somewhat around the current size im playing.
>>> your call
I have to admit that it takes alot more dancing to start to get the feel. The first dance for me was purely pattern recognition.
>>> but this is exactly learning to dance! I came to the conclusion sometime ago that we already have the most powerful computer in the universe and that it would be very helpful to use it in trading: the brain.The more time we face the 5M with full attention, the more patterns will the brain learn to see.
i saw a big bar down after a period of consolidation, so i sent a scout to test the depth of the selling, well it wasn't so deep so as expected
>>>No to expectation because of too many surprises.
price re-tested the area where the selling was first seen. I used it as a >>>chance to further add to my shorts.
as you can see, i am still not in the zone where i can tango with the market, but i'm 'expecting' prices to get here and here, i was trying to be ahead of the dance. Thats still not good!
>>> It is hard to break the expectation habit but naked chart and babysitting will do it.
The last two entries were the ones i was proud of. They brought little but i felt the movements.
I guess it has been ingrained in me after years of trading that such is the MO for trading, change is good but no-one said it was easy. lol.
>>>No, it is not easy at all but doable. For me the most difficult was getting the confidence of having not stops.
oh i've just realised...Interbank's spread....not pretty.
and my main broker, mf global, is starting to worry me, with petty writedowns
>>>Since we might have plenty of trades per war, the smaller the spread the better. Check Oanda. It has no indicators and other fancy things but we do not use them, right?
