Nice moves today, but now I'm getting tired a little ..


Regarding usage of mobile connections to internet:

I do not trade via iphone or other mobile devices.
But I have 2 different leased line and 1 mobile internet provider connected to my router. So I can handle most failure situations properly.
Investing some dollars into your infrastructure is much "cheaper" than facing a loss because of internet connection loss ...

All the best!

I have been studying and applying technical analysis to the Forex market for three years now. I always thought of technical analysis as set of tools that can be applied to price action to help me determine trends, conditions and time trades. I never understood the term "holy grail". I am the trader. These are just the tools I use help me minimize losses and maximize profits. My best hope as a trader or "educated, sophisticated, experienced gambler" is to win more than I lose.
Take all you can, give nothing back!

Hi FTI, (like your health?)

Hi all ...

Thanks to you and this forum...
I have good results (only Dukascopy real account).
I work only on the (seconds) TF ... (5,10,30)
I hope you accept my Blotter as evidence, and your school ...
For me, your most important lesson is the "rigidity kills" ...
But that's not all ...
Scout, rescue, and sequences ... This can be done well on such TF
I very much thank you ...

Regards

Oh yeah - feeling not too good when listening Nick Leeson.
There are some painful similarities in my trading/mindset.
There is only a small path for beeing successful or doing financial suicide ...

"Probably no one asked, and probably not even arise a question" Therefore it is important to question the question because the answer is in question.

Gaddafi's air force seem obilitrated.

Sorry to be off-topic but I don't have regular TV in my house so I rely on the internet for news and it's a bit slower....

Things started wobbling around in the room a couple of minutes ago, including the chair I am sitting on, I assume it was earth tremors, and I wondered if there has been another earthquake in Japan or somewhere in South East Asia? (I'm in nothern Thailand)

Thanks

Hi, I'm not in a boathouse, halfway up a big hill instead. I just found out what it was from a CNN report:


http://edition.cnn.com/2011/WORLD/as...yanmar.quake/#

Quote
(CNN) -- An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 7.0 struck Myanmar Thursday, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

The quake hit in eastern Myanmar, about 70 miles (110 km) from Chiang Rai, Thailand, the survey reported.

EDIT: Thanks Baifu.

And fti, I just read your comments about the nurse and condoms....please don't make me laugh, I have bruised ribs at the moment and it's painful!

Doing fine, thanks Niels. Hope you are well too.

My good lady will hopefully be giving me a brand new daughter in 8 or 9 weeks time so she isn't keen on going camping or on me buying condoms right now.
