Ok having a bit of an issue and hoping some of you more experienced traders can give me a bit of help here. I am hitting a wall. I can not get past a particular mark on my account. I am break even for the past couple days.

I am overall in profit but just cant seem to push any further.

Would love to know if you experienced this and what you do to overcome this.

Thanks

Trichet: More than ever, we need a sense of direction. The situation will continue to be demanding for a period of time… What more do you need to hear than the head of the central bank basically saying ‘we’re screwed”…? http://www.forexlive.com/150296/all/...t-were-screwed

recreational drugs. killing people. really? I was talking about legal, but unethical activities, rather than illegal. No two entities will ever agree whats good for everyone. Someone will always cheat. If everyone cooperated, theoretically we might not even need the government.
It would be a better world if we worried about others before ourselves, but that is not the way it is.

However, as to what is legal, that is open to change. Not that long ago, alcohol was illegal and there are countries in which many recreational drugs are legal.

As to killing people, it is being done all the time, it is just swept under the rug or called something else. That is also the way of the world, anything for the sake of profits.

I think I am trying to trade too many types of agendas instead of sticking to one agenda.

but you're handing the ideas to me

the drop from 1.44 last january was different in shape - and back then the whole bailout-shit combined with the dubai crisis was something new and fresh.

and i was thinking yesterday or the day before that there is a huge hurry to the movements since this summer. we basically have seen 2 and a half round-turns. a bit much, isn't it?
Most people only tend to think of trendlines in terms of geometric support and resistance. They are graphical representations of velocity as well. When ROR changes, it is an implicit change in price momentum.

Yeah.... Forget about the money and focus on the trading! The money will come by itself! You have just hit a psychological barrier!

1) keep a separate trading bank account for cash reserves and transfer excess money out of your broker account and into your trading bank account, and or switch off the equity display on your platform and try not to even think about money, it is an emotive subject and can play mind tricks on you...

I risked 33 pips on one trade and 42 pips on the other. I never risk more than 50 pips off the daily and each trade equates to 1% of my account.

I am a swing trader and plan b is to join the trend!
you are better than i thought you were.

my risk is the same and i move my stops toward my trades... not away.

the 1% thing means you know what you are doing.

nice month dude.

I have just updated the Gold EW counts on my Gold-Blog. See pics there.......


Gold mid term count updated. See pics on my blog.


With Gold right now I am not really sure, if we have completed the primary 5 already. I would expect Awesome Oscillator to have the highest reading in a wave 5, but we did not get that so far.

Regarding Gold I stay cautious.

Anyone thinking about going 'long' near term? I just read a few articles that may suggest the euro start bouncing back up.

It also seems like big investors such as Asia {china of course for the most part} have a bigger interest in the Euro as they do in the USD. I guess when you are owed money, the value of that matters significantly.
