Actually I feel a little sorry, for the new comers.
Its for them like in historical testing. Ther's no time to pause, there's no brain process, there's no patience and awu training. Its very different.
Ask those who went thru the process here. Its very different.
So if this was published in book and sold , it does swat for the readers.
Only mind fart. Sorry for bad, but its the truth.

[quote=pete.alfa;3462070]Hello all seniors and of course professional traders,
Please I need some help.

I have some question in my mind quite long long time but dare not to ask.

I set my goal is average making $100/day. what the size of scout should be if I work for 8 hours at london session?. Of course I understand that each person have totally different style but I need some guide line(clue) to meet up my goal.

Thank you Auxesis,GEfx,robertw,lusan & Sebetos. That was a great discussion at least I have some clue now, thank you.
I plan to open account $5k as I can see it's not enough I'll save some money to open account about $10k so it's realistic to earn about 1% a day.
I'm not good enough to open account with $2k and making 2-5% a day, I need to gain more experience so I can do that.
by the time I'll trade on micro account practice,practice & practice and also saving to meet my goal.

Thank you,

Best regards,

I opened the same real account in 2 computers, price comes in different speed from time to time. Technicians might explain that my 2 computer run at different speed. If that's true, one computer must be always faster than antoher. But, no, sometimes this one is faster, sometimes that one is faster.
I would explain that--- it's my computers are shading me, and they are instructed by broker's programmers.

Thanks lusan,
much fireworks display, and the 1st casino opens in Sg.
should had gone there, wasting time with market.

Hi guys,

I'm still around but not as active as before. New job and so less time monitoring the market. Currently, no choice but to trade on a larger TF. Just pop by to wish everyone a Happy Lunar New Year. Best of Health and Gong Hei Fatt Choy!!!

Yes, should have gone to the Casino but the queue is long and you are down by $100 even before playing. LOL!! Worse than any of the FX brokers!

Hi Fana,

good observation!!!!

Used that type of "edge" to make good money at the end of last year ...
From time to time the delay between different broker price feeds offer up to 15 seconds difference. So it is like knowing the future 15 seconds before the rest of the world ....

Thank you fti,

I'm working hard on it. Practice,practice & practice & saving to reach my goal.

I listened to evelyn glennie 'how to listen' it is fantastic.
I understand from the video - good traders must be able to feel market rhythm not only by looking & understanding the charts, they must be able feel & touch of market rhythm in their heart & soul - so they can dance very well.

My little sight for now... Correct me when not good...
There are both, sellers and buyers. Sellers defend USD position, they re still powerfull. Buyers are in defense and they are waiting for their chance... they know that dollar is strong and have strong support from sellers, so less buyers there,... ?

Thanks for the 'How to listen ' video, fti. I couldn't have imagined that she had hearing problems, if they hadn't mentionioned it. She is marvelous.

This inner feeling of understanding is very important ingredient for success. As I've heard or read somewhere " The samurai sword master knows what he's doing just as much as his newby students know"

Knowing that there are people who have this inner feeling(like fti for market and evelyn for music) inspires me, and I belive others here, to work and practice harder.

As I am in exam session, my trading will be postponed by some days. But when the session is over, I'll get back to improving my trading skills.

Good trading to all and many green pips

Unfortunately I didn't find the translation into English.)

It is a good explanation of the current situation in Europe, but do not forget
