Do you all post as your trading? I find that the intentity of trading too much to do any posting or even reading.

just closed both my positions a minute ago with nice profit. humped in as it took off and add to in the middle of it.

Its time for a doctors appointment so got to go.

I'm really new to trading fx so I could be way off, I went long at 4223 looking to tp just under 4250. I usually trade off the 15 min chart but check the longer tf for trend so based off the 2hr chart and rsi, stoch, my 5,10 and 21 ema spread and macd I went long.

If i'm wrong, oh well at least i'm only trading a micro account right now. I just can afford to hold for the long tf's

According to this survey (see above 'Ohne Worte') ... long since 1.4153 ...

We do not use stop loss ... but for those who need such things we suggest SL below 1.4108 ...

Projection for a move towards above 1.4211 and/or 1.4235 / 1.4247 ...

Maybe we save some rest-runners for an irregular wave up 1.4298 (Elliott) ...

Auch nicht gerade neu ...

As often mentioned before ... we have been covered about 71% of our original entries from start-point 1.41530 ... now at our target with highest probability ... in this case at 1.42155 ...

Rest may run where it wants to ... evtl. durchaus noch höher ...



;-|
RECAPITULATION:

And so we did now ... rest (29%) of our original entries ... now covered around our second mentioned area ... in this case at 1.42356 ...

There are many great books on proper trading mindset, but in my opinion the best way to ease your mind is to place trades with proper R:R never less than 1.5/1 I like at least 2:1 for my self. Also remember to move stops to BE. Trade higher time frames...they are easier and will yield just as much profit as scalping a 5m chart.

I've been trading the 15m chart and going for 1:3 r/r, usually waiting for a 5/10 ema cross to start the trade and confirmed with slow stoch and rsi above or below 50 depending on the direction. I havent messed with much larger tf's simply because i'm on a $200 micro account.

anyway, what kind of drums do you play? i have a gretsch catalina maple kit

Maybe, but they will eat you alive as well. Daily chart, everything is a multiple of 10 of what you would do in lets say a 5m or 15m.

Draw down, fake outs, and of course profit.

And of course, need room for the big swings. I ended up getting stoped at +5 this morning on a euro daily short swing, which was up around 60 pips at one point. Still nothing to write home about, but it's the concept that is frustrating. I guess they all can't be runners

it's just in a range, has been for two and a half weeks, 50 pip or whatever it was range extension in asia at the start of the week doesn't mean much imo...
