This is my first post so please forgive my lack of lingo. I have been reading the posts for quite some time now and they have been so helpful... so now I am reaching out. I have been trading live for only a few months and so far I have been doing really well... until now. I went long on EU/US at 1.5786 with 2 lots (oh boy )... any thoughts? Take my losses or hold my position?
Thanks

wow seem you entered right at the top...
I personally think this is a big dip, if u see the weekly chart the EUR was trending up since 2005 or so.
Today EU touch 1.5300, this is 486 pips down 2 lots.....yes (oh boy) is a big amount of money!!
May be if u entered only 2% of your acc with 1000 pips stop, you can hold....
if u risk more....well, if EUR go down even more maybe we are in a long term trend reversal....what bad fu**** luck!!.

Excellent work Karmo. I'm ploughing through your post history at the moment and it's really useful. Your contributions on the main GY tread are a voice of sanity in a forest of shouting lunatics....

I am sure he has profound reasons to.

Anyway, don't forget to put green pips into my a/c.

Hmm,

Sorry to interject here Karmo.

Mr Buffet, Karmo is a well respected trader here at FF and has the balls to post his journal here for the world to see - very few continue a journal for more than a few months as once they hit a tough patch they cannot face posting losing trades.

Maybe you could direct me to your journal?????

Also, strange that of the 5 threads you have started, 4 have ended up in the recycle bin

Read you often Karmostaji. It would be nice if more of the successful traders like yourself would take the time to post their results. It does take valuable time out of one's day. Not to mention the fact that you have a great command of English. I can only assume it's not your native language. However, it gives new traders (like me) hope, inspiration and perspective. Thanks for your efforts. Best regards-KISSFan/KARMOFan

Hi Karmo, I was wondering whether you have a web or a paid service of sending your signals, I know a few traders who would be interested in the cooperation with you. Is it possible to work like this?

I'd also love to read other successful traders results as well, it helps us all to try and do better.
Just for your info if you are wondering, English is my third language and I speak a total of 5 languages.

I don't give out signals, why don't you take the time and learn the stuff? It took me 1 year to learn everything I know today.

It takes practice and learning from your mistakes.

But never and I mean NEVER GIVE UP!

Everytime I lost, I took a step back and thought about what happened, then got back in the game again and again!

When I first started, I knew NOTHING about trading, I mean really nothing lol. I learned everything by reading on the internet and believed in myself that I can do this.

It's statements like this that inspire me to do the work.

Trading is not the preserve of the big biys, or of the exceptionally gifted, or of those 'born' to trade. I believe it's open to anyone who is prepared to believe in themselves, never give up, and above all study study study.

The information is out there. The mentors are there and their material is readily accessible. Thanks Karmo for this journal sharing your journey and being an inspiration.
