Yes it does! I'll be closing my short I just took 18min ago and going long there.
Great! I didn't get a ticket to this ride... yet.... but the 10ema on the m15 is looking quite juicy. The next h4 close will be crucial and also... keep an eye on the daily close...

I hate computers! I have VT Trader on my PC at home and it always is slow or crashing. I wish I could trade on my Mac, would be so much better.

If I could post a chart I would show you why I wasn't sold at going short at the time of the post. It was a long candle. My system tells me not to enter on a long candle. The long candle closed below the 10ema on the 15m. I took the short. I still don't know how it's doing because of my damn computer.

It's people like you that made me quit posting my trades a while back. Don't look for people on the forum to give you a free ride. I'm not here for that. If you want to learn from my posts GREAT. If you don't then buzz off! I don't have anything to prove to you or anyone else for that matter.

i noticed something really funny... people including me tend to have a higher success rate with short positions instead of long positions. i guess you get a feeling that the price might go down all the time because of gravity so we get scared to go long until we see a large spike which psychologically makes us automatically enter in a long only to be caught by a retracement... but for the short trade, you get a better feeling and timing on it because we all think gravity dont we hahahahahah

Never heard it explained that way before. I know some traders that are only successful trading long and vice versa. I think alot of it is the trader themselves and the inner feelings. Some people just do better spotting the longs and some do better spotting the shorts. The goal is to be able to spot them both.

if they can spot one side it will be great... then all they have to do is turn the screen upside down and they will get both sides
i miss the days when i used to go to sleep while my EA makes so much money and i wake up in the morning smiling
now i have to sit on my nerves in front of the screen watching the big lots go up and down hahahahaha loooooooool
i wonder when will i lose it all
