I do the same like Adi suggested.
80% are in the bank and 20% are with the broker, which is enough to pass the margin requirements.
2% risk per trade are calculated from the total available amount

Why do you deposit money into your broker? What you have is enough for some time. Keep them in a bank, but calculate your position size AS IF the money were with the broker already. You would save on bank transfers, your time, diversify risk (money kept in 2 institutions)...and Oanda would work just fine.
Just my 2 cents
That's his misinterpretation. You called it right. It wasnt a BUOB in candle, bar, or dogs-stacked-head-to-tail form.
)doing things silently is always the best way...

My biggest weakness used to be being unsure of myself, second guessing, wanting 23 independent opinions, etc before i acted; kind of an excuse to blame other people if things didnt work out, I guess. In the end though, hesitation gets you killed. Dont see Bear Grylls asking the internet for advice everytime he wants to kill, eat or pee on something (generally the latter).
Glad you like it
When you have to shoot, shoot. Dont talk.

Wish I could take credit, but its a quote from the greatest movie ever made - The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

So let's see how the Weekly Usd/Cad Nov. 2007 behaved when it broke . .
We have our immediate targets (previous bar Highs and Lows) Price broke through them and closed above them on the Weekly . .nice.
On the Daily, Price broke and close above and the 1st Weekly target . .Price then retraced a bit but still managed to close above the 1st Weekly target and then did the same with the 2nd target . .
