Day 66
Walk away w/ +$500 this morning on EURUSD in less than 150 minutes...
I guess the key to success on this trade was patient. After wait about 4 hours, I had my price filled right below the 1.1400 level.

{quote} Nice. What do you use to take pictures?
Hi Hilmy, how are you doing today? My photos were mostly taken via. my iPhone. I have spent a good amount of time a couple of years back trading on the road before I got married w/ kids. Most photos were taken while I was trading on the road. They were mostly edited via. iPhone as well.

The lens in some of the photos I took was the moment lense. These lenses are amazing.

btw nice job on the youtube channel !

its okay to fail as long as you get up. This is probably the one thing I repeat the most telling folks.

I will wrap up 2018 w/ this latest motivation speech from Arnold.

well, at least I closed it so my 2 years old daughter gets what she wanted 4 o’clock in the morning, her pizza playdough set.

and yeah that goes my first shot of the year.

I don’t usually say it but here is what happen WHEN YOU TRADE WHILE HAVING KIDS!!!

goddamn it.

Well yeah i missed out on a 50k trade once too could of made that in 1 hour but went to bed early that day , waking up a bit sad.
lesson learned here always use stop loss to take profit market can drop hundred of pips in seconds right after you took profit
sometimes you just need to be lucky too , you never know what market do next that's why it's fun
positive side is that you're still winning

Day 112
man... the kids are continuing to be the issue when they kepts waking up in the middle of the night during my trading section. It seems to be the greatest challenge I have been facing lately.

While I am getting the handle on the kids, I am thinking about getting the life a bit balanced in the next month by putting a reasonable number of hours into trading each week.

So... I am thinking about 8-10 hours (day) trading every week. Let this be my next trading challenge in February.

Let me me know what you think. If you are already doing it, let us hear it.

Also the Vlog 002 is here.

I like the little clip that runs only 30 seconds. Easy to make but straight to the point. So hopefully we will see many of this type clips in the future.
