My suggestion is to consider what the data is telling you BUT it is more important to react to the direction the market is moving than it is to react to the direction that the data is suggesting BECAUSE of how the market reacts (or doesn't react to data)!

You are totally right. I watched NZDUSD react 200 pips to Caixin Manufacturing PMI few months ago, then the next month, NZD didn't give a damn about Caixin PMI. You are a wise man. Fundamentals need to be confirmed by the price action. This week I was right, pause bets are increased, yet i still lost money Being right does not equal to making money

{quote} I think 2% rule depends. With smaller size account, risking more isn't out of the question, because the account is small and earning enough money for it to matter can only be achieved if trader risks more than the traditional 2%. I'm not talking 10% or 20% on one trade, but 4% to 5% is necessity for smaller accounts in my opinion for it to be worth it. If average pay in your country is 1000 something, whatever, let's say USD and you have 10 000$ on your account, then risking 2% per trade is optimal. You'll have at least 15-20 trades a month...
Yes that can be one way to look at it.

Now here's another way to examine it .....

Using a very / small account size FORCES YOU to pay attention. End of story. If a person chooses to use a blind mechanical approach then they will not learn the other lessons necessary. End of story. So what you risk, realistically, is never only about the figures. A person can have millions but be dumb as nails and lose it all. Why? Won't learn the simple lessons.

Watch a chart for long enough and notice real things beyond opinions. What's the difference? Look at other instruments and see if the same thing occurs. Look at market sources you'd never normally use. Note the differences and similarities.

To me, practice account or not, the combination of small account size and high/low leverage should be experienced first hand. And make notes on the entire experience. Making notes is very important.

Some situations call for less leverage used. Sometimes more leverage is just isn't necessary.

Earning. Earning. Earning. Collecting. Banking. Profiting. it all becomes rather funny after a while.

Q - How many traders can you fit inside a movie theatre? 7.1 DD DTS !!! Hihihihihihihihii.

As I've said, trading is not about money. Anyone who says that to you has a hell-of-a lot to learn.

So having "more" doesn't make anything "easier", it merely screws with one's perceptions. Arriving at a plan that does NOT perceive money as the ending result, is the better way to go, in my impression.

what you're mentioning here is not a fundamental. Sorry. Manufacturing sits on a different layer. Q - what comes/happens before manufacturing? Being right is an incidental thing to looking at the full situation.

these are indicative and are not fundamentals. Incorrect layering. Funny how people like you speak of this stuff but don't understand that. They're not real fundamentals. "it reacts as it wants" ...... so you're just guessing then.

GBP/USD Based on the Hourly TF, while we still don't have a signal to go Long, candles are closing just right for Long to become a possibility tommorow. We'll see before Franky what the situation will look like. By looking at the Weekly TF, because of today, the Weekly candle dropped below the Support at 1.256. However, the price has returned above the Support as this day nears its end. Weekly would have to close below this Support before we can start talking about lower levels like 1.243 and 1.211. Still clueless about the real direction on GBP/USD....
H1 confirmed Long. Waiting for the clues on H4 now.
