lol, Dude, i wish of course a 130% week for myself, that would set me free for the other 51 weeks and live happy from that income.
i am sure you too.

i was only pointing out that these wild equity swings on an account usually foreshadow something very un-turtle like...

Thanks Broketrader. No I'm a hare but realised long ago if only I'd been more of a tortoise/turtle

no, it isnt.
the emphasis was on timing and news articles.
the reference was your trade.

if for completely benign reasons noticing that fast gains arent turtoise, or such makes one a "weed" to ignore, as some above state....sure, forgot comments.

The timing actually wasn't bad when i took the trade, as at the time, in the short term, price was heading north. however it subsequently turned south. but I'm not worried as yet as price overall is strongly trending north based on solid fundamentals.

The name of the thread is a personal reminder to me to try take things more slowly, but ultimately I take the trades as I see them according to my rules, given my availability to do so. Last week there were at least twice as many setups though than the ones I took. Hoping for another week of strong trends which is the cornerstone of my setups.

Thankyou PF for your observations.
