Nice post.

If you have to ask us for affirmation.. then no

besides.. tell me this

If I said yes, would you know where to put your stop? When to exit the market with a profit, or even a loss? You have to make your own decisions, and follow your trade plan consistently

Just some friendly advice Hope it helps

With what's been going on lately, the "follow the plan" stated above has been drilled home to me! EVERY TIME! I go against what I call my "rules of engagement" I end up loosing. I set myself rules and, when I follow them, I find myself winning more than loosing.

Okabija, your comment was right on the money! FOLLOW THE PLAN! Keep it simple and stick with what works.

Now there's a big question; what is it that works??? Whatever it is that gains you pips, right?

How can I make myself not to close a positive position too soon. Is there any slogan or psycological training? Or one must go away or do something else?
How do you manage to keep a profitable position? What helps you not to close it too soon?How to let profit grow?
1) Use trailing stops
2) Admit that you dont know what market gonna do, it may go up or down. The only thing that you can control is your trailing stops

Did you realize that when you close your position manually it's always because you think the market is changing direction ? That's the sign that you think you know what market gonna do. Kill such thought when it comes to you. When such thought comes to me I say to myself
"Stop being cocky as if you know what's going to happen".

Hope this helps

I would STRONGLY suggest buying and reading "Trading In The Zone" by Mark Douglas. Ultimately the most important thing you must have as a trader is NOT market knowledge or strong TA skills, but rather a willingness to accept risk, and trade without fear. Read this book and you'll understand.

Friday 15.50 EST before the end of thrading day my broker,s eurusd quoting was 90-91. Tat differed by 3 pips of Saxo quotings. I sold 90 and then phoned my broker to correct the pair. He refused and offered to trade arbitrage or go to SAxobank. If the difference will be every friday how can I use it.
My broker has positive swap for short eurusd. Who of the reliable brokers has positive swap for long eurusd. It seems to me Saxobank has.
Bus 15.57 my broker made it 88-89 and I closed.
Any idears how to use the difference

Why don't you lock profit, and let it run further.

Not that I know of. Not that I'm making a judgement, but if you're not willing to pay for something like this, then it may not do much good to you even if you get it for free! Recognizing the value of something is important if you want to truly get value from it. I paid maybe $35 for it on amazon, and just the information in the first chapter alone can save you thousands of dollars in your trading if you truly understand it.

Apart from much valuable trading advice picked up here, this book has to the one thing that changed my mental approach. There is some other great stuff I picked up in the Private Forum but if you don't buy this book then you really are doing yourself a great disservice.
Get it, you won't regret it!!

Awesome Peter--congrats on your success so far this year--you're doing well!!! If I may ask, what specifically about the book changed your mental approach? Anything in particular or just the whole idea...?

Uh... no. Didn't you read what I said before? It's not free material. It's copyrighted, and that would be illegal. If you're a trader, you can afford this book. If you can't, you shouldn't be trading in the first place. And if you don't see the value in information that can help you become a better trader, you'll be broke soon anyway (wanting everything for free indicates at some level "greed," which is not a trait consistently profitable traders have).

I'm pretty sure that you can get an ebook version on amazon, but you still have to buy the hard copy book in order to do that. A search on google for 'ebook "Trading In The Zone" "Mark Douglas"' should give you details.

I want to emphasize that the book is by Mark Douglas, as there is a book with the same name by another author.

They can say all they want, but it won't mean anything! :-)

Since it has been trending up, I see nothing to indicate it will change--so if I had to bet, I'd bet long. But again, like I said, that means nothing, as any market movement at any time can be caused by random events that neither you nor I have control over.
