And here I deserve a spanking for ignoring rules and going against the trend cos I thought I was smarter than my method ! The "X" is where I went against an obvious down trend. The other marks are where I should have entered short !! The bars are "Range" bars. Discipline rules okay ! Note to self - stick to your rules. {image}
It seems to be a day for it, Mr-T. I don't know if it's boredom or due to it being a sodding Friday but I have spent all morning willing the DAX to turn so I could fade the market, ignoring the fact that it was a huge, great, freight train thundering past.

As a result, instead of bagging many, many, pips in running off a couple of trades at most, I have used the time to run many, many, many, trades, forcing contrarian shorts for a couple of pips at a time. Sure, they all add up but soooooooo time-and-effort-consuming.

Idiot...

Don't forget it is NFP day
N.F.P Day - look at your charts now.

Yes -and I stayed away from CAD - it could have been a nice short ( Lem was right about plenty of Red) but that's all hind sight. I stayed away and I am pleased I followed the rules for once after that aberration earlier.
Have a nice week end boys and girls.

Before I disappear for the week end - take a look at this guys' video's. Some good stuff for newer traders. But he does make a lot of video's and I was wondering if he ever gets out much
VWAP....requires volume so wouldn't apply to forex ? But try it on other instruments where volume is shown.
Seriously though - worth a look - especially the money and trade management vids.

What I took this morning. I didn't wanna risk it for too long - left the trailer in and it hit trailing stop. Clearly I am getting worse at this take profit thing.

Mr T,,, STICK TO RULES as you say..
i want you to either write out a 1000 lines, "i must stick to rules" in neat hand writing ......
OR a bit of corporal punishment.

i couldn't get the usual skinny girl to give the punishment so got my ex wife Helgor to do it

And people flocking into the latest "Bitcoin" trading fad had better be careful. Could be tears at bed time soon for many.
I could say, "Fools and their money." But that would be unkind.

From what I can tell it's very hard to make a bit coin - requires a lot of time and resources - so the mining is a sort of gold standard backing the coin itself? Hell if I know...

The mining is actually a sort of peer-to-peer bitcoin transaction security. Miners are paid transaction fees and newly created bitcoin for the transactions they’ve processed. The mining is purposefully made difficult to limit the number of bitcoins entering the market.

same here and i agree with Wanna and BrokeC on following posts.
But no one holds anything real , only the real money they take. No gold reserves etc.

it all seems odd but the idea is brilliant.
I will stick to real trading

and another thing about bit coin,
i cannot help looking at it in the same way as PYRAMID SELLING,
where we have a get rich quick scheme .
It is excellent way to con people when they have buyers but it always ends. ouch
