Hows everything with you? Feeling better?
Haven't really moved yet today...just figured I would log in and check out whats a shaking...

Daily ATR is pretty close to current(toppish 1.3628), so figured, wtf, might well hammer in a short, missed most of the weeks trading gotta find a thrill someplace...

Hate trading Fridays after London close, but hey, when opportunity knocks...

How has been the week for ya?

I had a feeling that my short at 3385 would be profitable. still in it and now my feeling is jumping off a bridge might be the better move.

thats cool. Been very productive. Got into learning mode all of this week, trying to nail better short term entries and it has been working out pretty good. Took a few trades here and there, just to boost my confidence and it has paid off.

Thought I would be done for the week this morning, but then saw this little spike and shorted at 23, moved my sl to be+1 and will see what happens.

Next week should be interesting. Good luck and have a great weekend!

Loads of traders thought at 3385 (on Monday, I think) that a short would be profitable, but of course it wasn't, and that's comforting, because I think this is the real and normal forex: you think that one thing will happen and then the opposite thing happens.

Not to pick on you here friend, but....

Trading a micro account with massive sweeps and no stop losses will mean 1 of 2 things, and the end conclusion will turn up the same. A bad path for trading IMO.

1. You will never get out of the penny world, will always be trading micro lots.
2. You trick yourself into thinking that you can make all trades profitable by just holding long enough....and move your account into minis or standards.

Conclusion.
Eventual Account Suicide.

Tripping with the trend means you will never have to come to a place...
I concur. To add to wise M's words -

Trading without SL means you should not make new trades as this brings the margin call closer to being called! When the trades go against you big time, your trading psychology will be shot to bits.

Just because YOU think the market HAS to go in YOUR direction doesn't mean it will. The market will do anything it wants!

Have a great weekend and take it easy M!

The little ones can add up to be sure...90% of my trades are quick trips, triggers on trend...Ya just never know when market gunna get hungry...

The 1m chart is still my favorite, but keeping the others open for reference means ya can get in early and hold for trendies...

Meh, beats working for a living....

Best to ya into weekly close, looks like we got 1 more day of heavy buys before Euro loses some steam...Weekly ATR on EJ close...a spike into that, might have to dust off a few longer term south side holds...

As a matter of fact...I never much fancied the ATR chart term, perhaps relabeling the tpl to benchmark might be prudent.


Hrmmmmmmmmmmm

true. been working hard at getting good on th 1m as well. closed my short at 13. 10 extra pips i was not counting on. Cant complain. I hate holding stuff over the weekend, unless i am in deep profit (almost never happens). Plus my son wants me to watch cartoons with him, so off I go.

great weekend mango (reminds me of an SNL character)

I have last of my weaker resistances at 1.3620 and a strong-one at 1.3672 (probably missed 3640 one).

1.3620 came at a wrong time i.e. near Friday close. Closed shorts built from 1.3600 to 1.3620 at the cost of 90% of profit for the week.

Really incredible Bull these last days (especially today).

No retracement, nothing, up up up up.

I suppose correction should apply for next week.
