I hope you mean "last week", coz loosing 10% of the account with today's move, you would have to step back and check your strategies and MM

Edited: got it... You meant "this month"...

well, if I don't blow my account, I just feel good, actually I'm a growing kid here as you can feel from my words.

I have blown my account and raised it back a few times in the past one year. Now I play with my profits only.

The only thing now I lack is patience, I should shoot when the time is ripe, until then wait wait wait wait and wait. I'm just glad that my calendar and timings aren't that bad, BUT OF course the way I use them gets bad sometimes.

This month has been quite discouraging at my end, realised 10% loss so far

+ 5% floating loss

15% looks real bad, no matter how much I made last month or last year, this looks like a real stain.

lessons whatsoever I've learnt are no good unless I practice them and I think I need to focus more on my local financial (IN) markets so I can keep a balance. I need to take FX lightly, not exaggerate. Wait for a chance like a sniper.

Wish you all luck
From what I have read, we all do it every now and then - fatigue/boredom/cockyness - doesn't matter - as you say - learn and start again...pinch a few for 5 days running then carefully ratchet up...
You will bounce back...

And the B.S. is back... stocks and currencies.

profit out, I'm out. Just holding euro longs, as euro is being a fair partner lately, unlike cable.

Not going to face another insane week no way... Will catch up with London tomorrow.

Pino....what is the cable theory for this week???????

I'm patiently waiting for an opportunity........which probably looks like tomorrow when Bernanke speaks.

Today looks like a no trade day.....the market is waiting for something and so am I.....

Cable you want to break 330 area, why you are giving us the feeling that you are trying to break the China wall, and now you are falling down, it wasn't that hard to break this area, in addition that you were supported by the funny -4k NFP figure

yep, bearish engulfing taking shape on the 4hr now, might break support back down to 'value area', before resuming northern assault.

That's what I call "B.S. trading". Strong move on NFP, then cracks Friday's high then.... bearish daily candle

And BTW, dow is showing teeth to 13,000. There is a scent of selloff in the air for the week imo. And as sometimes dollar goes up when dow sells and sometimes it goes down, I'm not willing to take a position here...

Best trade for this month will (would, should, might) be on Fed cut sentiment. If this sentiment doesn't kick in, there is no strong fundamental or TA to provide some nice healthy moves across the board.

And I think the market is hoping to get more signals tomorrow when Bernanke speaks....otherwise we won't hear nothing until the 18th.

P.S. Tom Brady...nice stats yesterday vs. the Jets.....

oooo you are naughty ! If I was him I would wish you would spend it on a 24oz steak and 2 bottles of heavy red wine and then get gout in both knees !

But he is concentrating now so look out or it might be him with the winnings and knee gout when Benjy Bernankepancakey dribbles down that grey beard and the world watches and listens

my open positions today reveal a 1 gbp profit at spread exit price so I won't be taking it off ya - that's for sure

I have decided to keep that long for a while for various technical reasons and set my SL to to 2*ATR(14) on 4H which is huge... We will see... (said the blind.)
