Hi Vick,
how sweet of you, remembering me in the middle of your holiday, Thanks!
There's no hurdle at all my friend... it was my bad when i flip last night but not so long when market shows me signs that i was wrong... booked 35 pips loss but then i ride EU bears after that, with a solid skews

so now, still flat and on the sidelines... waiting for her to show hands...

I was looking your Trading Journal. Very interesting. I am new to forex and exploring if I can earn my living from trading. Don't feel like working for anyone.
Can I ask how many trades you do every day and how you select them.

No rush, Please response when you can.

very exhausting night... i was against the flow... sleepless night, ego prevails...

booked in -165 pips loss...

not a good start ...

currently looking at the price... i don't really believe on fundies... but if i checked it yesterday, it should give me heads up of the greed and fear of what's going on with EURO UNION...

... now i'm tired, just waiting ... i can feel panic, fear and smell blood...

not a terrain for faint hearted...

...........

OKAY... NEXT!

Hey MS,

To each his own... feel free to explore and experiment if you can do a living by just trading currency. There's always the first time and never too late to start learning.

if you want to learn forex, there's plenty of forums here in forex factory where you can learn basic mechanic of this business - technical and fundamental aspects.

you should check out fti's thread good place for you to start... http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=57639

i trade as long as market lets me... a lot of times i don't even have a position... when market so choppy and low volatility...

Hello Dongsky,

Not a terrain for the faint-hearted for sure.

"very exhausting night... i was against the flow... sleepless night, ego prevails..." It does happen, but we regroup and go on. Must deal with the pain of it, if we had a major loss. Know what that could feel like for sure. Days like that just tell us what we need to focus on...again.

Many better days ahead. Next?

Take care,

simplicity and nimbleness is the key to this chaos... manipulated world. Book is still up by 39% but MO has changed a bit to adapt a very tricky and slippery terrain. best is to hit and run... but never be a pig.

Simplicity and nimbleness...yes. Flexible...you've been that by adapting to the terrain. Hit and run...yes...never a pig!!! Those who maintain the qualities you mentioned will always make money...mho.

Keep right on going!!!

Hi Vick,

that's the best MO at the moment... before i do any position i already have sighted levels where to exit if i am wrong and levels where to add exposure when correct and ridding PA. sorry i didn't see your message yesterday... too busy helping fana with feeling and pulsing the market; i hope he learned

I was always reading TAF ... and still in the know of what is happening there...

i feel that euro is already dead... but of course they cannot just let it happened just like that... that's the interesting part... where a lot of traders punting. we can still make pips... just be extra vigilant for the market isn't like the usual... not on her norm. and your lady, USD/JPY is very boring to dance with... while cable is better but will kill most of us with her long spikes and superficial volatility - widening, ranging... just be careful.

having no position is also a position
