{quote} I am in too, but only because there was something wrong at the top last time. Will jump the ship @ 72, 76 or 85, maybe earlier if PA does not want to react forseeable. After that I will wait for signs to drop, maybe next week. Good luck Boulder
Great.. see .. prove again you re a better trader than me.... hope it shoot to 80s for you ...pass above this R 63.... London fix will do it...

I am out @63.

Will it go higher? Maybe.
But I prefer to wait for signs for a short.
Up 13% for the week and donīt want to ruin the result @ the end.
Enjoy the weekend ppl!!!

OMG, I need to trade more.. my current month return only 5.16%,, since I mainly focus on DD ( drawdown) more than return.. my DD is 0.82%. for the month.... I need to be more aggressive... fortunately i don't trade for a living.....

its attacking that day close at 1656.. a L day close today 1657 + would be higher week close. it would also be a new higher day close since the drop. i has enough adr to continue. day 169x.. week 1726.. day has been muted on its range. week range may be better. it still needs to pass 1689 and 1705..it may probably have to close above both. 170x month pp.. not sure if it will slap it down 1705 ish..

the first step is to close above 1656 on day, and above 1608 on week.. that could happen today in 1.5 h..

u got 5x + your drawdown. that's a winning combination. at 5 % it take 14 months to double. anyone who could consistently do that can make billions.

Open an excel sheet and punch in your balance.. then each line below to be prrvious line x 1.05. Fill down for say.. 60 lines.. months. And look at that number

above 1700 could be hard..i got a fib around 1684, dr 2 below 1698, and mpp at 1698..in a somewhat downward trend yet i think that 1698 could be hard slap.

possible to say that if this 1422-1423 attraction i have is legitimate..that 77 short would have been PRISTINE. :/

if the L close is below 654..i dont plan on longing

Better safe than sorry!!!
As you are on calculations:
I am trying to get 2% p.d. min. and 3% max.
This allows me to start with a small account.
I will go over an year and if results will be as expected this will be a pretty good sum.
If not I will do something else.
I never withdraw any money during this year, the only thing I have to do is to adapt my leverage every 2-3 days because I canīt make more pips every day.
