Hi,

A little bit about me- I have tried so hard to get this forex, on good day's i love it, i don't like friday's an saturdays no market , I have 3 daughter's I love so much, would like to make a great living an one day pass it on to them so they can stay home an enjoy the babies, I had a wonderful boyfriend who i loved more then he will ever know, I started this right after the breakup to get my mind on something else- wow 2 year's later an still working on both getting over the boyfriend an learning forex, We got back together back in june an i did some great trades i was so very happy- since then just can't seem to do it i think i need to get a grip on the emotional side of it . I get the rules, lot size ect, i have to get a grip on this an soon, There is no work out there an this is my only income, I plan to use this thread to help me i will post chart's ect on here of why i took trades on how i feel since feeling's seem to be my biggest hang up, I have no support system to encourage me, all I have are my f.f. friend's to encourage me an sometimes that is in short supply. It is so lonely being a trader but have found you pick up on thing's alot quicker in life also you just start to know what is going to happen befor it does

As you can see this did not work out went out wiith -2, then desided to just go to sleep due to NFP, later on seem's that was a good choice. I will not take any signal's till after the NFP

I have been keeping up with your thread, and wondered what time frame you like to trade?

I would like to see you get some CASHO, keep the updates coming.

Have a Happy New Year.
