Depending on what size your account is that's pretty freakin' good.

This week sucked, I did get pips but it was all so random with fundamentals coming into play.
Brother, I made out like a bandit this week (small experimental lots) have one position in a loss (due to my own mistake of not waiting for the candle to close). Not because of GU but I was playing around with Fib's and the Daily TF's. Got into the trend using fibs and made a killing on EUR/AUD,NZD, GBP/AUD and a few others. I still have my other shorts but I was playing around trying to get into a position using the daily TF and fibs. Try it out on a demo!

Other than that, UJ sucks. Should be tanking. I need it to fall,and fall hard and get it over with. We all know it's coming so why the delay?

Cesar is right, this thread is full of hyena's.

Actually the result is pretty good but the way I got it pretty much sucked (account is small unfortunately and I'm risking around 4% per trade). Most of my money was made on CAD/CHF but I got so eager to take some profits that I actually missed half the move.

It completely crumbled this week and my first entry would have netted me around 600 pips and my second entry would be close to 500 if I had the gut to have them... unfortunately I'm always eager to take a profit so I kept quitting my positions and coming back in at a worse price.

Of 1100 pips I could have made I think I made around 400 because I could not sit tight (need to learn to respect my signature)... such is life, I'm still learning and I think I'm making excellent progress (considering this is my second try after a blown up account 3 months ago).

So I'm happy with the results but unhappy with my trading... (not that I want to be happy with my trading and unhappy with the results, but you know what I mean )

Found the drag on the Dow today:

Some of our fellow fat Americans are not eating their share of McD's prime filet of fast food : like they ought to.

It wasn't an easy week by any means. You can look back now and see the profit you didn't make. But making decisions, specially on GBP this week was hard shit.

I have 2 strategies that go well with the carry trades trending, whatever the direction. But they stall during ranging periods.

And carries are ranging since Jan 3

Yeak, I know you guys trade a lot of JPY and it was a hard week for that (USD/JPY took some of my profits this week as well).

But you really should look at CAD... did you know it was the currency that gain more value compared to other currencies last year ?

Now... can the US enter a recession and not drag Canada?

You know where I'm going with this

Yup its the one thing keeping the US$ really dropping as much as it needs to. Many other currencies will drop as well. As the expression go, be careful what you wish for - you might get it.

It will be devastating if 12.5K goes today. But it would demand a 350+ drop today...
