nonsense...

Yep. The market loves testing the banks... just see BOJ... Every single time they intervened it was pushed back down.

if you're looking for 20% yearly gain then it's better to put your money in mutual funds, and let the portfolio managers trade it for you. no point of trading forex, the way i see it. too mucho hassle.
Damn I wish I could find a mut fund who paid 20% annually consistently...

you have losses some years, so as portfolio managers.

conservative funds have been mucho more consistent. there's a lot out there if youre looking for 4-5% yearly gain.

btw wulf, i didn't get there just over night. i had gone through endless trial errors, fuck ups and evaluation, days and nights of screening time. one of the most difficult thing to fix on my end was to learn when NOT TO TAKE TRADES. if you get that then you'll see where i get that 50% return per month.

Yep. These jerk holes need to realize some of us actually like consistent movements... and not this, consolidate for 3 days then fly off in a random direction type movement... lol.

I havn't even closed any trades out this week... and I can tell I am extremely annoyed with the market. lol
Well then maybe the best strategy is to stop looking for large moves and focus on playing the ranges. I agree, they totally screwed up this market.

Agreed mang... I unfortunately can't put a lot of time on intraday movements due to work / sleep schedule. This is why swinging has always been my bread and butter.

I've been extra pissy today for some reason... probably will be back to my bright eyed cheery self tomorrow!
