Dear psiholog



I trade for almost 20 years .. and are no longer in age not being with my feet on the ground.


However I always do what I write .. believe me



Edit : Thanks for the compliment

20 years my goodness. i only hope i last that long...longer. let me ask you something. earlier i brought up the idea of manipulation again...these wild swings that we see daily..where it used to be a few hundred pips per day just half a year ago..now its 500+ most days from high to low..at least. is this manipulation to you or just a panicky market?

btw...if i do last that long...it would mean i spent half my life doing forex...jeez...

I like your name.... that should be my name too!!! Anyway, I won't trade the gy, too dangerous indeed. It was the pound that got me today on the huge popup this morning. I will take is slower as I got myself upset.
Hope the market will slow down because the software is better to handle.
What do you think?
We all experience losses. The idea is to use good money management!!
Just be patient and you,ll be fine!!!!!

Read above first...

I do not believe in manipulation ... the man is an imperfect animal.
On this market run a lot of money.
Those who work in central banks are not monsters ..
Look in the budgets of the various central banks which are their losses under the heading "TRADING".
I want to say that what we are seeing is only human irrationality.

The best thing that can happen to you is to find out where you're wrong.

I read your posts on the gby/yen forum. Ialso have the 4x made easy software. I do trade the gby/yen a lot, but it is very dangerous when the market is this volatile.
Am I understanding you correctly that you are trading the beast on the 4x made easy platform.. that's the green/red arrow thing right?

if so, am I correct that you're trading the beast on that?

If that's so, then...

EU accomplished a 62% pullback in the down trend. It stalled at the 89 sma on the 4 hour chart (attached). It has turned down again and is ranging at the 20 sma basis of the standard Bollinger band. If it falls down thru the 20 sma on the 4 hour chart, then it is reasonable it could continue on down to the trend low. Nothing is certain except the long term trend remains down. For now, it could range sideways, pop up again, or continue down. With the large daily trading range, on small timeframes trades in either direction can be profitable. But trading down may remain the safest trading.

Dear Jay

Are you there? From yesterday's post I figure out that you are long on EUR/USD. What makes you go long on this pair? I am new to trading and just curious. I personally believe it can take either direction from this point.

I was long and got stopped. Hey, shit happens As I always say, "It seemed like a good idea at the time"

When I said that, looking at the daily chart, I believed that it would continue to go up.

I used a smaller time frame for entry and had a pretty tight stop loss.

My method isn't particularly "good" but it's worked for me.

I don't want to bore everyone else with the details but if you want to pick my brain, you're more than welcome to PM me.

Thanks a lot for your response. I got my answer. With my limited knowlege I can say it was a good move. Just wanted to check from you, before going for a similar move, only waiting for the right time to enter. Thanks again for your kind reply.

on second thought, i'm thinking somebody unloaded some positions in advance maybe. who cares?

if you run a'rd in circles long enough, you start going in ever decreasing circles, until you eventually disappear up your own a$$whole

That's one hell of a mental picture there AK. I was thinking of one's ass as a drain with the hot air swirling and swirling. Like in a bath, first, all of the gunk floating on top goes out. Like that douchebag Hal Turner, Jim Cramer and all of CNBC. Then oops...that trader is gone as well

Hey, I just saw someone called chicky called you "Dear Jay..." What's that about??

I'd like to have his (cramer) sound effect machine tho. Be a lot more fun that these ridiculous smiley things. I hate smiley things, Cuz I use 'em doesn't mean I like 'em.

Couple of years ago, old felix "banned from everywhere" homogratis (what kind of name has homo in it anyway?) had a chat style trading room setup with sound effects. honest. it was hilarious. bunch of semi-grownups sittin a'rd honkin cyber horns, bomb explosions, and fart noises at each other all night. noone could trade for the racket.

ahhh... those were the days

I have been observing various forms of gammings and markets for last 25 years. Opened a real account only in October 2008, just to see in my first month of operation what Wall Street never saw in its history. This is my 1st rule, never follow even a prophet in these games, only follow Price Action. Lost 95% of my account in first two weeks (got greedy) but now on my way to recovery with great hope, discipline and not doubting or changing my orginal method - only carefully managing my leftover 5% - which has now grown back to 25% with uniform and consistent trades.
