{quote} Better than forecasted data....USD bulls may not be done yet...careful with shorting USD just yet
also May 2nd
FOMC Statement
USD
Federal Funds Rate

Keep in mind usually market prices in the rate and I think 80% already has been.Don't be surprised even if Feds raise USD plummets right after as what we experienced last time around.

Edgar A Don't Quit


When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low but the debts are high,
And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit...
Rest if you must, but don't you quit!

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many failures turn about

When we might have won had we stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow...
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the struggled has given up
When he might have captured the victor’s cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out...
And you can never tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far.
So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit
It’s when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Beautiful...I have read this so many times and it is so true and motivating. Along with all skills & discipline, I believe Persistence is another key factor that defines winners from losers.

Lot of lessons in life is in nature.

Tiger only catches 10% of prey it attacks and yet she attacks over and over and probabilities eventually win and tiger lives!
Think about this.Had the tiger even once doubts she will die.How many of us want success this badly? Then take the effort!Make it count! Do your work calendar!Pivots etc.One can clearly see guys here who outperform others and you must look what they do different and emulate.
That's what we do in the Arts.I spend countless hours in museums watching and learning.Its all there and its all have been done already.Nothing in trading is new. Jesse Livermore traded pivots way back when only few were aware of it...no computers he spent countless hours reading paper tape of prices...marking key pivots...That's determination.

UC short.
Just kissed 61.8 Fibonacci retracement.

I know I'm probably early and May 2nd (USD event), but I'm starting to build a small position.

To add to this great post, the Tiger also knows when to hunt, what to hunt,and the characteristics of weak prey. It lies in wait in the grass until everything comes together. If there is failure, as you said, it will simply repeat the process. When it is right, the meal will be more than worth the trouble.

Yes !Totally agree tiger knows all these and repetition becomes a behavior.To me trading pivots is very easy because I have thousands of trades already under my belt basically its a behavior for me.

Your trade does not show but I assume you've shorted USDCHF. SNB favors a depreciated franc and have stated so openly in recent times. SNB is also known for their manipulations. Be careful buying the franc right now.

Plz add pivots to your charts, they'll help

You can tell who is who by their comments alone... good luck and continue building that account. Here is the real funny thing about my success...

Yes caused lot of brokers chapter 7 bankruptcy causing lot of traders losing their money.Its basically worthless as trading instrument.
When you consider Euro is 99% correlated with Swissy then why even bother just trade the Euro.Euro is cheaper and more liquid with better stability.
