Atlast,

Yes I added...its embarassing...but I added 3 micro minis on.....I don't have much capital so I didn't trade GU or couldnt. I have one mini lot on.....until I build this account back up.....its all I have left.....I can only really take on position with one currency right now.....

so if you see a better set up on GU let me know...thanks!!!

So just trying to build back up the account......I have so much confidence when you are back on here....

Driver55,

I would think if the EU/GBP goes up that means EU is getting stronger.....whcih...

well,
things are a little more complicated.
maybe another time we can talk about it.
yet I tell you ... that foreign exchange markets, are a kind of communicating vessels.
here we don't create new wealth, but it is only moved from one vessel to another.
The best thing that can happen to you is to find out where you're wrong.

Atlast,

I will admit my mistake of over leveraging and wiping out my account in the last 2 months of trading....

You helped me build back my account last year and the begining of this year before you left the forum for awhile....I was able to double my account in over 6 months....but when you left, I panic and as you and Gator scolded me on.......I tried to incorporate to many trading strats in one.....

I was down to my last $100 and I was able to DOuble my account this week......thank you....I am still in....I have good knowledge in this arena but my MM is horrible sometimes and my ability to re-coup from a hard blow makes me over leverage sometimes...

Yes, I made some profit this week.....over 100 pips to be exact....now just think if I had a larger account.....so anygy at myself for getting here.....AGAIN!!!

Hope you stay on to help.....looking for another set up today in GU or EU

1.351 was last Q1 close so bulls have to hold that zone, likewise 81.29 was the close for last Q1 in USD, 80.5 zone is very important to watch as above it weakers currencies will continue weakening.
Obvious attempts to hold level & possibly build some sort of base, also 10 & 20 Daily averages are in this zone (1.347 & 1.35)
Prices oscillate, trends persist. Trend is your friend.

Short @1.3497 waiting to head down. I live in Portugal. Everyone here is short! including the government!! Yesterday our finances minister was braging about the EU accepting very well our plan to take us out of the mud (we fooled them another time!) This beast is going down this country is like or even worse than Greece!! When you see the immigrants starting to leave back to Moldavia, Romania and Brasil makes you start thinking...! Good luck everybody!

Not necissarily, it could go up 20 pips and then move down for another 30-40 again easily by today. Im not buying into the long euro story, im also not buying into whatever most morons on this board have to say, changing their fucking mind every 3 hours, you sometimes see the same people within the timeframe of a DAY screaming: LONG TU 1.FORTYZ LULZ. and then reversing their mind and saying SHORTZ LULZ.

Kind of ridiculous, ive been praising 1.35 level since beginning of the week and im staying with my analysis of 1.28 within the next couple of...

I agree
If only I knew then what I know now...

EU is royally fucked and everybody who is halfway decent at grasping economic concepts will realise that whatever happens, even if it moves up to 1.41 its only a play by investmentbanks to get out maximum short profits on the ride down.
Only problem is economics can take a LONG time to appear in exchange rate. E/U has been overvalued by PPP estimates for many years

reason for 81 92. i doubt they hold. but they are historic bumps.

the single biggest factor in determining your success as a trader with ANY financial instrument is position sizing also known as money management.

if you want to be a great trader... the first step is being a great risk manager.

ignore this simple principle and you will fail.

i ignored if for several years and lost every one of those accounts.

Thanks Mike! I understand...

My problem was I never did as well in forex as I did with Atlast's style of trading....I was able to make money and like I said I doubled my account which usually I would always be in the RED......


When hhe left I panic and started losing....which I started chasing trades and then over leveraging to win back just what I lost which turned into more losses.....I couldn't stop....I didn;t believe you could have that many losers in a row! You can!!!! You can take 100 trades and lose all 100.....the law of probabilities is tricky!

I am trading smaller as I have to and trying to correct a demon inside of me.....

Hi, I´m from Portugal and I´m also short in EURUSD, from 135194, Portuguese deficit is huge and the government still wants too build a fancy multi billion € High speed train, and talks about Keynes.

Not a good ideia I guess...
