{quote} there is never anything different ,, quieter now because of all the bullshit regulations after the big mkt crash ,, lots of stuff tht helped cause volatility is gone ,,, wild west days are over ,, soon as a gov pokes their nose in supposedly making it better for the little guy ah hell there goes the neighborhood , just makes it tougher for the little guy
It’s different because I would have been able to have a small stop aiming for a lot of pips. There’s not many area like that on monthly chart. A 200 pip stop is better than having a 2000 pips stop. There’s very few areas like this on monthly

I would have entered trade at 1.3476 with SL at 1.13690 that’s the only place I’ve seen on EURUSD that I would have had a good long term short position

You will get a chuckle out of this ,, ole boy my dad bought a farm from when he retired played in the mkts ,, grain mkts ,, but he drew his charts out by hand with eod prices ,, remember seeing them in his shop ,, when he passed he had a fortune his kids didnt even know about ,, they were a little pissed cause they didnt get much of it ,, but kinda was my 1st glimpse of mkts back in the day
