should we be paying close attention to the lv at 1.3667, after such an explosive move up?
edit: out for +17, hovering around the asian lv, too close to london open
I don't understand your thinking Skris

Mac, thanks for the input.
I played #1 until it broke 1.3678. I'm now reading this as 123s and let myself be guided by the fcrs for the SL but looking to preserve with #1 at the higher levels. Is that incorrect?
Oh, I see what you mean. Now old boy, as I understand it if you were entering above the LV at 79 you would treat it as a 123S, and a #2 would be appropriate. BUT WE DIDN'T DO THAT....we caught a lovely runner when it was a little FCR1 in Bubsy's case and a BB in mine - simple...time to celbrate and play #1....scenario of your choice. COOLIO - I get three jelly babies so far.....

System 2 rules ! You guys must be enjoying the early bus ride. I am envious I am not on board but really glad you guys are raking in the pips. Ok, good luck (well, you don't really need it with System 2), I am off to face the big bad world out there and earn my living. Catch up later!

Nor do i mate lol, needless to say, lesson learned, just didnt wana lose out thats all, so was lookin for any excuse to bank.
Nerves huh? They just keep cheating us when we let them run the show. I don't know if this helps my friend, but being a volatile trader myself I use a 'chillometer' where 0 is laid right back and 10 is totally emotionally activated (e.g. manic, depressed, screaming at the screen, sulking). . I trade the plan best from 0-5....above 5 up to 10 it's time to close the charts as I'm too antsy, anxious, excited, negative....and then I make bad choices, hallucinate, predict, over-trade, go cowboy...you name it....dangerous times. Any level can strike in an instant - especially after closing a good trade (I get arrogant and omnipotent fantasies about myself - don't tell anyone...) or a loser (want to get revenge and think 'f**k it double or quits').
My chillometer is at 3 this morning. Take a chill pill bro' - then back to the plan... the perfect trade is the aim of the game...the profit will follow.
