now got two orders setup.. sell 21.. buy 43

down -17 so far... ya baby.. took two shots.. and I played them prefect..
now i got the price by throth.. he will surender sooner or later.. it will break one way or another.. if it fakes me again and punch me out.. thats fine I won't give in easy.. I come up with a upper cut and i play my defensive and offensive game.. he is got one weakness and he knows it.. he must reveal everything with price.. and thats what i follow as my one and only guide.. and his second weakness is that he will and he does go on a run sooner or later.. and with my approach I be in that run for sure..

now you see how this could be a nothing more than a fun game..
just spead the load wisely and you can play this game and be a winner at the end..

Gotta be like Floyd Mayweather, keep jabbing him in the face, and jabbing him in the face some more, until finally he has been jabbed so much that he gets dizzy, then you hook him and follow him while is down(the runner). haha

Still running the short...only +3 at the moment but hanging in there....
I know later tonight is NFP...fx in your experience does it cause choppiness this far out?

Hey Trader222

Starting to look good IMHO

Trade 1 WHy did you wait so long to close after the break at the toip which you have marked ?

Trade 3 - Was a short right so you are +23 no ? Looks like -23 to me on the chart when I blow it up ?

In anycase u r on the way
Hi Paul,

Thanks for your comments.

Trade 1: I waited that long because I thought it was better to give it some room. You are right, I should close that kind of trades quicker.

Trade 3: the figure is +23, if you zoom in the chart to 100% size you will see +23.

Why didn't you take the short runner right after the close of your first trade?


Regards.

no not a stupid question..

my answer is.. i don't know.. nor care..
i have seen trendish days prior ot NFP and I have seen choppydays..

but why i don't care.. bcz its a winnin situation for me..
how.. bcz if is trendish I make money.. and if its choppy i play my defensive game I may not make money but I don't lose much.. and i have got plenty of practise.. which is good, it fine tunes my defensive ability game and it gains my confidence as to know that even on bad choopu monstery days i can still survive and kill the market on good trendish days..
so I welcome it..
however I sit on my hands 30 min prior to the announcment and wait for dust to settle and take the pull the other way if the set up is there..
