can we pls cut the soap operas crap and start throwing in charts and thoughts

how about that i`ll start..

i`m hedging this range on gu right now cuz i`m greedy and want to try to make the daily range from here cuz i have a strong feeling that it just either got marked down into support to pick some more longs on the m1/m5 trend or its just going to range from now on, OR i may have picked a good top for now. so since this scenario offers good riskayoff and i also took 1/2 off the long i had so i make sure i get paid at least something now both trades are with secured backing and free and i do not care what happens unless the mother of all whipsaws comes in and kills both my trades is what i`m betting against or i`m shorting volatility hoping for a directional decision

pls everybody stop talking about bull shit and start posting trades and thoughts i`m fucking sick of it ok ?

Although I agree in essence :-


1. Learn to trade for yourself, don't rely on people you don't know and might well by 10year old kids on the internet bored.
2. Back test these charts that have been previously posted and see how truely meaningless they are.
3. Only post charts based on some real statistical probability rather than the BS thats posted around here.



+50 on the week so far and yet everyone was shorting, do you not see my isssue ??? People who repeatly try to short every what looks like a top are not good traders!!
Nothing to it, but to do it!!! Stick to the plan FOOL!!!!

glad u agree finally on something...i knew u`d appreciate the approach somehow
1. I will never stop learning and I will never learn from anybody else. That actually hangs from the top right of my computer. Yes, I`m a post-it kind of guy, I like to have everything in front of my eyes gives a boost to discipline. Cant explain why and do not want to, try it if ur curious, I endorse it.
2. Backtest my charts or what charts ? Because if you mean my charts, then I really do not feel I should backtest as much as before since I tend to say that my payout is positive for some time now...enough said bout that.
3. The chart I posted almost has a statistical edge but it will never be 100% of the whole discretionary decision because trading is also screen experience and an art in its own. But statistics do help...sometimes

true, true, true. I would say something more: somebody who is trying to catch pick lows or highs doesn't have much chances to succeed (IMO).

3. I'm a math's / Stat's guy if I can't prove a edge as being viable live not after the event like most are then I don't use it, simple as!!

If I could only remember what I was doing when I first started trading and do it in reverse, I could seriously be the most successful trader ever.

I had Bought every Top and Sold every bottom possible!

But for a newbie trader all these charts that contradict and lets face the it the bad traders out number the good traders on here 10x's easy, there going to go for the more that suggest the same try to emulate them and lose there asses.

See my point yet ??

Maybe you should get the name changed, to newbie's experimenting with charts don't listen to any advice on here ??

No chance at all and I'm the best darn tops and bottom picker there is but the odds are so far against you it's just unrealistic totally.

Read NO CHANCE!!!

It's the standard newbie trap we all fall for it, I sure as hell did, but this thread should be beyond this already.

FEAR makes you trade the stupid way, which is illogical but it does, I'm still fighting and have to force myself to not pick tops / bottoms and occasionally I give in and take a huge account loss.

Getting there though!!

Also 95% lose the Stat's suggest ( no idea on accuracy ), but 100% of the people here pretty much are profitable and Pro's, hmmmmmmmmmm.

It was seriously gross and embarrassing...I would buy because the chart was spiking massively, only to see that I never made a green tick, and would hold that mother until I couldn't stand the pain anymore and short, only to see that again, I would never see a green tick and back up she would go....

Watching forums and seeing other prosper around you when all you do is lose really fucks with your head.

I started watching the charts instead of the forums, and it was only then, I would see profit. I still like the boards, but still prefer to play off of my own charts.

Always learning, sadly like a lot, I payed dearly for my lessons.

this is where i disagree because to me, it is a tuition fee, not a loss and it helps radically change the mind set because you would never want to pay for same tuition twice, would you ? what would be your "economic" cost if you purchase something you already know the answer of ? exactly your repetition of the mistake will be your economic cost

Ahhhh but there losing to, there just lying about it which makes you think it's you not the system so you keep playing the same game and wiping your account out.

I started off profitable, then a mate who was a I AM man, told me about forums and how to trade proper like bla bla bla, he was losing his ass but only telling me about the winners that did A LOT of damage I shoulda kept going as was I'd be rich already

Which is why I try to stop what happened to me, happening to others.

Judging from the reaction I get from a simple post, there all lying, GUILTY comes to mind and they know it deep down inside notice how most think I'm targeting them personally, when I barely check this thread and talking entirely in general and have no idea who'm the good or bad traders are.

Anyway SLEEP!!
