Just digging in the trenches like everyone else!

Well I'm hoping it wasn't just a lucky week.. But it was taking less trades, and only taking trades where I was confident it was going to do what I wanted. Also, not just taking every reversal candle stick pattern or setup - sticking to the ones that fall on S&R helped a ton. Another thing, is staying away from the early Asian session. Every time I try to trade around 9-12pm Est. I get raped. Not sure why.. low volume?

I think having a higher value per pip will help as I will limit my trades to more confirmed signals, and will stop me from just "gambling" and hoping for a big run.

That may be true, but your dog can lick his own balls, I don't think Pippi can, and if so, he probably keeps falling out of his chair.
Pippi may be able to lick his own balls. He's vertically challenged, so it's not that far a stretch for him.

You said what I wanted to hear. STICKING TO TRADES THAT FALL ON S/R and I'm going to make a stab that your referring to the HTF S/R.

Keep it up Captain! Your on your way to another stage in your trading. This next stage is fun! It just keeps getting better from here, just remember your ground rules.

What's there to be jealous of? I can apply sunscreen to the bald spot on the back of my head with my tongue! Why do you think the neighborhood women are always cooking for me?

In answer to your PM eohater, yes i did make +1700% using a lot of trade what you see, and a couple of simple indicators i designed myself. The good news is that i have just hit +2000% in less than 3 months, this really shows the power of not second guessing the markets. Statement available on request.

Keep up the good work!

Of course I can. Why do you think I've been elected President for life of my local chapter of 'the dirty old men's club?'
