My trading journey

i was about to sell at 1.2215 when it stalls for awhile on that area but i remember the saying... don't be a pig

bot 1.2206 x 1

deployed checker 1.2201

closed position at 1.2200

bot 1.2206 x 1 = -6
bot 1.2201 x 1 = -1

total pips = -7 pips

i'm just watching the market for now... waiting for the news realease in 3 hours CAD... but here's my insight now... my bias for now is still long...

bot 1.2171 x1

close 1.2169

- 2 pips

that's it for me now... friday always manic... be good and be safe to all.

hey sylar, you trading?

Nice Dance Dongsky

Like the idea of skyping & dancing with U & Fushion

Will PM u my skype so we can hook up.

I am SLOWLY reading TAF thread (at page 4 only) to make sure i understand the teaching before proceeding... At the same time trying to understand the dance of the mkt too...

I can only enter the dance floor i.e. watch the mkt during US session (cos that when i reach home after work) hope to dance with U & Fushion during these period

Regarding my earlier question i just wanna understand how do u feel the pulse or dance of the mkt. What are the key signs/formations u look for i.e. V formation, pin bars, long wicks etc Do you utilise a top-down approach i.e. Daily, 1H, 15mins in order to determine the trend and keepin that in mind and to trade the trend in 5mins Or u would just trade what you see at the moment & going with the FLOW.

What is the moving average u have on your chart?

P.S I will be taking a 2 weeks holiday to the Land of the Rising Sun but will be following your journal.

Keep in touch via skype. (Remember to add me buddy)

Pip Well buddy
Sylar

yes i will add you to my skype. yes i always do top down and look for the trend and see for the right entry and to get that needs to feel the pulse by deploying scout to further feel the way everything will be answered when both of us are in the dance of the same tune... then easy for me to explain and show you all your whys and whats moving average is just like what fti mentioned one of his thread, just to tell me how far the price had moved just for the purpose of troops position sizing either on rescue or attack... but nothing more, never use it for calling entries... also the fractals just to signal me of bottoms and tops...

so your travelling to japan, hmmm nice one my friend. happy trip and goodluck!

be good and be safe.

one day i will learn to trade like you do but for now i still need to read TAF.

i wish i can trade like this but i know i'm still very far behind. i cannot let go of any of my indicators as most of you are discouraging people not to use most of it.

wish you all the best.

hi dward,

nothing is imposible if you will persivere with whatever endeavour in life you have. patience and discipline is the key to all and back it with prudence and humility... you will go very far my friend.

for now, i believe you're in a wrong thread, i suggest you to go and visit TAF - Technical Analysis Fallacy forum by fti and try to read it all and re-read again and re-read again until you absorbed all the essence of his teachings and other traders experience and sentiments on their journey learning fti's way. and re-read again, again and again.

goodluck to you.

regards,
dongsky

i just finished re-reading TAF, started 9:30 this morning and now is 6pm here. this is what i'm doing on every sunday and everytime i do this i always found something valuable and understand fti's teaching more deeper.

fti said:
The 3kingdom relationship can only be observed, and cannot be penned. It is because the relationship changes through different stages of its cross-intercourse and can move away from the norm. It is this observations of abnormalities that gives clues to the status. However one thing is that when they move in sync then that is the"BIG,MAJOR,SUPER" trend, so don't get caught trading against that

----

as i go through my trades and engagements, i found a lot of mis timing to my entries and even to my rescues... i go against the trend (even i was aware i was in contrarian mode) and worst is i was too confident that i will be victorious over those battles (need to check my ego - the scorpion within).

with a better understanding of 3 kingdom relationships, and proper timing of my entries and the right mindset, i guess this week will be a better one for me.

trend, mo, mm and ego is my lesson for the week.

be good and be safe.
