I am on a standard 6 lots right now. I'm looking to move to 7 next week if this week finishes good. We'll see. The move to 6 was challenging at first, but now I'm not phased by it. I was at first closing good trades out too early, but now I have a grip on the emotional side of it. I'm hoping the move to 7 will be smooth as well!

If we don't break upside of here in the next 10 minutes... I think it will go down before too long....

Trying to trade by your rules and stick to it, thanks!!
The nice thing about it, you don't have to trade everyday. Take the setups and if it's not there, walk away. Keep up the hard work!

EO, I know how hard the emotional aspect is - believe me I do, but just trust and believe in your progress and all the pieces will fall in place. In my situation, I went from trading 5 mini's to over 15 standard in under 2 months - was a bit too insane and I had to learn the hard way that rushing it wont work out. As for a return reminder, be patient,persistent, and you'll be fine

yo man im all for peace i need to do a better job not getting sucked in. I will do better cause I respect you.


I did do a review of my g/u trades since 9/25. I cant go further in the history.

19 times I have traded the G/U since that date.

6 short entries from 1.8400 area shorts at 1.7450 area and then from 1.5450 area.


I for sure have taken more longs.

13 to be exact.

9/25 long 1.8400
10/1 long 1.7677
10/8 long 1.7303
10/8 long 1.7190
10/9 long 1.7082
10/9 long 1.7009
10/23 long 1.6078
10/24 long 1.6043
11/03 long 1.5860
11/6 long 1.5660
11/11 long twice at 1.5400

So I had both sides covered. Would take alot longer to see what exactly every one of them did but I wont post it here. To long and boring.

I want to see the lows of the four hour tested. Either by a one hour close in that area or a four hour. I will try and post a chart my comp is really bad today.

My comp is just freazin up on me really bad

Thanks bro! You've mentioned the two P's. Patience and Persistent! This is so true!

I try and only take my setups, but in the case of the last entry, I'm taking if from saying the bottom for now is 4900. Not one of my typical setups. I'm just looking for some value building on the currency before she falls again.

I'll consider myself successful when I don't need to trade ever again and I have more than enough money for my life and my kids life time. That's my definition of success in this crazy industry.

Navin.... I wouldn't suggest it untill you can really bang out some long term results. Believe me, every trade that goes wrong , you grow a strand of white hair... having said that, I think I'm one of the reasons why Rogaine is in business.
