apparently so going by his thread...

Holy grail is play it safe and protect your equity, let compounding do it's work and then in time the curve ramps up and you retire to the Bahamas, but Rome wasn't built in a day...
If you studied my thread and my actions you'd see quite clearly that mechanical money management is key to my success. I'm one of the most disciplined traders on here, how do I know this? Consistent results with a completely linear (predictable) drawn-down.

I started off risking 10%, dropped to 5% and now I'm ~2-3%. On my win and risk to reward ratio that's very conservative.

Yes, finally.

Hardest decision of my life but I'm glad I did, even though trading is high stress/stakes I am for once truely happy with my direction and position in life. I might even post a pic of the treat I bought myself but that would be gross of me, I try to remain humble.

Glad to hear it, I always had faith, but just be conscious of putting stars in the noobs' eyes...

and I agree humble is best, the market is the boss, and what's that old adage? It's got a stick big enough to cane anyone's ass...

I'm watching the that bull 5min candle's range, 3702/23. Seems like the one to beat if the bears what to show up....
Yesterday attempt to stop the bull rally is failing. Bulls manage to hold 1.3675 and it seem very difficult by the minute (still news to come) to break back that key level. The doors are wide open to 1.380x today. A quick run of stops 1.374x and 1.381x is a my quick and final target intraday for the week.

We'll see and good luck to all

Gator your posts are interesting, but they have a lot of slang.
For example "s / o.., atm., setup (as slang). bad aszzz........"
Is there a glossary for those like me ?. Inglish is not their native language for me.

I think the biggest unwritten rule of trading is: you need to 100% believe you can do this, that you can make it work, forever and more, even after considerable set backs.

If not today, maybe tomorrow, but this lifetime you will make it work. This is crucial to your mental success and with that comes financial.

Under pin a lean and keen mind with disciplined methods and management of your trades and you're 95% there.

Good Morning all,

broke falling wedge on daily to the upside,
above monthly pivot,
above 200ema,

very bullish signs for me
my view 2 weeks ago #364724

after retest of MP 1.3285 i mostly was on buying the dips mode,
today is yery important data ahead, 3.5% forecast,
if we get more then 0.3 deviation
we will see strong move, + 0.3% would strenghten the dollar,
- 0.3% and euro is in the 1.38+ zone, would really like to see
a deviation of more then 0.5% to get a nice firework.
My target is FE100 at 1.3826 in extension 1.3878 possible.
If we reach this level i´m very cautious with further long positions,
we could see a bigger sell off then. (i´m flat right now)

Wish you many milk cans today and a happy weekend

Very true, very true.

I'll be off now I'm adding needless posts to this thread and it's not helping those wanting to trade.

I won't wish you luck, as you make your own.

I agree, the ugly sister race is keeping this pair down artificially. Risk is definetely on today. Look at Dow and es, UC/UJ/GU. This pair is lagging the markets right now. All we need is the next fundie trigger in 40. I have left this pair alone thus far.

I would like to see the big stops taken out above 3780-3800

What up brother, hope your well. I agree its all bulls right now. As you know, I'm an old futures guy. One thing the old timers taught me, was never go home short on a friday, on contract highs. I think the same applies here, well at least the reasoning. Above 3758, every short this week is a looser, and every long is a winner. Who's going to have a better weekend, lol...
