I wanted to say thanks and let you know I won't be around in future.
I really enjoyed my year on this thread and I learned so much along with all of you and really grew as a trader.

Pistol Dave - stop beating yourself up over AUDNZD. I hate losers too but watch the Mark Douglas video again, it will help you. Don't stop pulling the trigger, man up and get on with it. I know you feel like you have been sucker-punched (trust me I have had a good lesson in that this week).
A lot of good setups failed this week, its just a crappy week. The gold setup...
I am truly sorry to hear that you are leaving us, and surprised at the circumstances.
Good luck in your trading.

hello all! iv been following this thread for a while now and just wanted to make my presence known and thank everyone whos working so hard to keep up such a great learning enviroment.

after 5 years with forex i spent a breif peroid of time in jail, at which point i decided to rethink my whole aproach to trading. reading on here has given me alot of ideas to work with along with a completely different base for thinking about trading. im still in floaties at the moment but working on non indie sr drawing along with understanding PA.

very cool to see aswell that some decided members of this thread over a course of time have come to be so successful, very inspiring to see such things!

one thing i wanted to ask is would it be alright if i posted some charts where i think im seeing a setup with the reasons for it to be critequed by those who understand? i dont want any sort of handout i just want to make sure im learning correctly.

once more, great thread!

Been there buddy, I swear to allah if it hadn't been for that 12 months for selling dodgy videos, my trendlines would be nowhere as accurate as they are today.
Come to think of it, that 2 year stretch i did for attempted murder( alright, i was drunk in charge of a lawnmower, i swear to allah that i never saw that mole) really sorted out my drawing correct SR and fibs.
Seriously, you're in the right place, post away.

Nicola, like any family we will have disagreements and it is the words from close family members that cuts like a sword but usually time will heal these wounds. Although relatively new to the thread I have come to respect your views and been a fellow Canuk I would hate to see you go. I am sure you have given this serious thought but sometimes decisions made too close to the event may be seen differently given the passage of time.Wish you would reconsider but if you choose not to, I wish you all the best and thanks for your contribution.

The short answer is yes and it isn't because I'm greedy or can't control the little people....
I'm in there with you, old buddy. That's the way to stick to your plan.

Our Ryan wanted to know how to trade 2 lots on his penny stock trading so I did this example for him and thought I would post here as well.

Place 2 trades (lots) buy order

Set TP (take profit) on 1st trade at 100 pips or whatever your first target is.

Then, move your SL (stop loss) on your 2nd trade to your entry price. This will put your 2nd trade at break even (less commissions). If PRICE comes below this level you are out of your 2nd trade but you still made profit on your 1st trade.

If PRICE continues up, keep your stop there until PRICE...
My original plan for Usdjpy was open 2 orders, one closed at 100 pips and one moved to BE, let it open until see reversal sign. I did as plan, then I saw your post as an example move 2nd trade to confirmed swing low. I like that so I will adapt that to my plan since my 2nd trade was planned open anyway. I use the profit added a new position as price pulled back bounced off 20. Worst case break even, will see how it plans out.

kratun, this is NOT the lurker way man! You gotta keep it low, stay under the radar.

P.S. It's Friday and I'm in a funny mood, don't take it the wrong way kratun. Lurker Power!
Trading = a mirror to your human flaws. Fix them or be fixed.
