Fooled by randomness is a lot like Reminiscences of a Stock Operator but it takes place in the late 90's early 2000's. Its the best book on understanding the human element I have read so far. Amazing to see that you are up 31% YTD.

I hope that you are slowly taking money out to secure and protect you initial capital.

I really enjoy reading these types of books. I'll find me a copy. Thanks for the recommendation.

04.01.2008 GBP/JPY S 199.78 Closed -167 Pips
Don't read too much into this. I'm looking for about 100 pips when I get into a trade on a pair. It goes without saying that I need mucho more practice on my entries. I consider those three positions of GBP/JPY one trade. Once I see that the 100 pip target is acheived (in this case, I caught it at 114 total pips between the three positions) I close the trade. I do not watch my trades like I should. I look at them whenever time permits and keep my laptop by my bed at night. I just woke up this morning (because I had to pee) at about 3:20 am and took a looksie at my positions and closed some. I closed the USDCHF for a slightly different reason. I'm fairly new as you know, and I will be trading better and more disciplined as time passes.

I will eventually when I get the time to explain in detail. I will say that I rely heavily on trend lines. My charts look really messy. But I think that they serve me well as I draw everyone that I can possibly find and then look for the gaps for price to move in unopposed. Matrixxdg, if you read this, could you send me that snag it program so that I can post charts? Thanks!
