{quote} great sentence, good and mature attitude. i'm having discussions with my family about it right now, because they can't deal with my directness, but it would help them. i remember krishnamurti as a great teacher in these mental things.
whoosh.
directness on our end is with good intention.
however it it the way we put it to them or the tone we use may sound harsh.
that we ourselves may not be aware of.
how we speak to a client is different to how we speak at home.

I bought GJ and UJ. However, no confidence in the PA because of that H4 big red candle.

just decided to fold on GJ, as my overall view on POUND is bearish.

that's exactly what i said to my family. is there still a difference between family and customer meetings?

but apparently, especially with the younger ones, saving face and pride is a priority.
the question is whether i, as an older person, will accept that? i know where it leads, it inhibits development and builds up a distance.

anyway, i just wanted to confirm that "saving face and pride" don't lead to success, especially in trading.
trading is like dancing, don't think and just listen to the music!

{quote} our country is very small. most of us travel by mrt (subway), bus, cab, private hire. a corolla altis costs $144,888 - 199,888 plus a certificate of entitlement $112,000 lasting only 10 years. not taking into account petrol, maintenance, insurance........ with all that can i buy a decent house in australia? sgd1 = aud1.143 our government is so efficient that you hardly see any traffic jams except peak hours going to and fro from office/industrial areas. we received the award for the most expensive city in the world, tied with Zurich.

after dominant move, wait patiently for pullback to m5 bearish engulf which is very prominent with one blue candle.

thank you for replying

Unfortunately I missed the 5m entry but I still entered with smaller position size because I did not want to miss out. If it hits the upper 5m EG again I might reenter.

we are now on page 50 so i won't be around for long. https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...1#post14732581 let's do some practicing for those who want to participate. nzd had been bullish after the news. draw 1 engulfing above 1 below nearest to the current market price for w1 d1 and h4 for NZDUSD. 6 in total. do not draw extras. we are only interested in the direction. PS. do not use this practice for live trades. drop your shyness, drop your pride. your skin got to be as thick as elephant's in order to learn. no need to save...
