Perhaps this is the place to resume.
Like many failed traders, I can do 1% a day with my eyes half open. However, I go wrong by over trading. Having had the usual ups and down for years, I am continuing my journey in striving to succeed. I have the silver bullet but my aim and timing are invariable bad.
After years of procrastination, I have recently opened a demo trade explorer, with the ulterior motive that, as it is visible, I may gradually hone my aim and timing.
Wish me luck...lol
None the wiser!

{quote} NFP friday. last month -33k.. missed forecast. no 300K hits since 2014. not so sure it will hit the 311 this time. it may be hurricane related, so i may be full of shit. but its not the first time for a storm to hit payroll. Sandy was pretty big in the population it hit. the numbers werent negative with sandy. less than expected. but not negative. 311 seems like a big number. sure its had some 400k and 500k in 2010.. 300k is still a big one. {image} {image}
i had doubts

Why is still going down? The reports were a miss and should weaken USD.

it looks bearish lol, not sure !

264k < 312k but still positive numbers

and 4.1% is better than 4.2%

So I will sell the rally.
It did not touch 1709

close was 1654.5 or 1654.3.. slightly below yest 1656.. it erased NFP. probably bearish.. but its not decisive to me. it did close above 1654... flip a coin.. i call edge.

What is uptrend, what is downtrend?
It depends on the timeframe I think.
