trading is 10% system and 90% mind set

if you wait for the right set ups
use the right money management
adhere to stops

a good return on fx can be achieved is 5% per month for a newer trader. Most new trader are so excited about trading they either press the buy sell button way to many time in a day or just do not wait for the right set up.

I know some in here do 5% in day blah blah blah. But lets see if they are still around trading in 5 years.

all traders have bad patches and losses. It is part of the game.

I achieve about 4% on account per week average including losses , but only take the very best trade set ups ( did not take long gu today and missed nice long as gold was heading down and dx up , so the market were not synchronized).... so took euro sell instead.

this is positioning for week going into New Year

they seem to pushing it up for no apparent reason in light volume trading session

gold is under support 1090

dx is close to resistance

ES turned off the top at 1123

so why the 140 pip move up GU ? makes no sense

This sound nuts but this move up may actually tell us their intent in the New year of selling the crap out of it.

I am off for now

Everyone have a great New Years ... be back next week

Rumours now that US co Hershey will make a massively enhanced bid for UK's Cadbury's. As we say rumour only, and more than likely traders grasping at straws to explain today's monster [GBP] revival. Still there is no doubting the power of the Gbp bounce, and clear also that there is nothing to stand in the way of the stop rout. Eur/Gbp now 0.8935 from 0.9055. Pre Xmas lows in sight at 0.8914.

Bearish momentum subsided today
Cable tested former down TL around 1.5920 and bounced

As such I'm buying here @ 1.5955 ...just below yesterday's stopout level anticipating re-entry into prior range zone.


Merry Christmas!

Hi Malcolmb,

5 min is too low a TF for me, having said that though...the breakout (false as of now IMO) was very sharp...but all of a sudden selloff just evaporated...as long as bears cannot sustain further selling, this is to me nothing more than a knee-jerk reaction to some random news hitting the market...

bears at this point do have a real chance to show what they're made of, otherwise a very nasty Short Squeeze will be the only logical response...

Cheers

well.....bears had the chance but, but, but.....yep...they didn't take advantage of it....

and as I mentioned yesterday a Short Squeeze like we're seeing right now almost 200 pips is the only logical response to that inaction

alright...this backs up my hypothesis that we're in a bear trap...

I Will Continue To Carry My Long Position Set @ 1.5955

have a great New year ...

only 120 pip dd I guess off 15955. Not to bad at all.

I think the gu move is bs ...look at all drivers of usd

gold under support
es came off high of day
and dx only retraced 10 cents of res

if anything this could be a bull trap set up ....maybe i am missing something. But something tells me this odes not smell right.

why else an odd move like this that does not jive with other market sectors... in low volume market right before year end

I guess only 2010 can tell us

Have a great New years party

you are a complete arse

and btw 22% for the year is pathetic

THE S&P OUT PERFORMED YOU ...absolutely pathetic.

only an idiot would place their fund with you. Better if they ask me to look after their account , at least I can get them 10% per month
