Nice profits, GOT to take risks and when the trade looks really good bet the house, pussy footing around isn't going to get you anywhere so keep it up, atleast with big Lots your learning to trade and get over your fear!!

You can always add more money and go for attempt 5 right

Get this cracked and the few K's or what ever your down, will seem like absolutely nothing, so it's worth the risk.

The current trend is down, but cable has to clear the strong weekly mid-pivot @1.9701, coinsiding with the daily mid-pivot @1.9703.

If broken, the next level is 1.9661/62 (weekly/daily S1)

You are right, but the fear is very big, because I lost some accounts and don't want to lose this one too. But that feeling, when market is moving in the right direction and just few pips made the huge amount of $, it's very strong too. The question is what is stronger?

Don't look at the euro going for new lows, the 1 time I decide to stick it out it reverses on me, typical and not boosting my hold it longer confidence levels

Bingo!
1.9662 +3 pips is my next target

Adding shorts if retrace to 1.9701 happens

But she is standing now...

It looks like she is going back upwards. Is this possible? I can't believe that

The fear is most of the problem, fear of selling too early, fear of selling out at a loss to watch it go up again, fear fear fear.

Crack the Fear and your 75% there.

If you learn, when to go in small and when to go in big and when in big your bigs win what else does it matter.

$200 account swing there, buy and hold SUCKS, I'd of been getting my longs back on here to Arrgghhhhhhhh

Yep you can do it with enough of a time horizon

I am looking at 2 to 3 years from now so I can relax

Most of the stuff I buy has an s&p rating of 5 star strong buy with a price projected 50% above its present level in 1 year's time. I don't necessarily believe that but it's reassuring, and a 30% average over 2 years will be fine.

Been here before and seen 20% market losses turned into 40% gains within 12 months

Obama reckons credit cards are the next biggy to crunch

Go to any airport in the world and see the writhing mass of people pushing to get on planes at any price and it doesn't square with 'all the airlines are going bust' - when I see deserted airports looking like Bradford, Yorkshire on a wet Sunday morning in November I will believe the industry is disappearing - until then I use my eyes and say nope I am buying some Boeing shares

Time will tell on Boeing but any luxury item ie air travel is going to suffer, but no doubt you'll just buy more as it drops.

Credit Cards in the UK are already being crunched, Barclays said NO MORE and reduced my once 9K spare limit to £100 spare to protect themselves, thanks

Which blows my holiday

Longs for the week - very well may be so... But the immediate target in the current downtrend is 1.9662 + 3 pips.
Since we are in the ranging mode you will have an opportunity to close any longs as well
