Hey Seems like you are with Oanda.

Can you suggest on below:


Hi
I learned trading reading online sources, forums webinars, babypips,dailyfx etc
I am Oanda from 2 years approx.
I started with 1000$, I blow, I added 10K, I made losses margin calls.
Added another 20k to save my position.
I lost almost 20k out of 30K.

I opened very large position USD/JPY to my luck 23k in a day of intervention.

It's hard way, I learned trading, Now I am making consisent profit with good st op loss and less leverage.
Some high leverage trades like...


Stay positive mate. You will learn absolutely nothing about controlling your emotions on a demo account. You have already learnt how to use lower leverage, small lot sizes and stop losses. The best way to learn how to make money is to lose some first. Also remember that everybody has to start and learn somewhere even the more experienced traders on here. Keep reading and viewing the comments on here. When people post charts with their view of price targets analyze their work and compare it with others, and what the books tell you, you will become more conservative and start to pick higher probability trades. Don't let it beat you. Also when you see people on here people on here posting how many pips they make per day/week you may notice that not many post how many lots they use. When they post the trade picture from their platform the lot size is always blanked out. It is very easy to be smug about making 100 pips but not if you only made $50. Also when you have been on here long enough you will start to learn who knows there stuff.
One last note. Until you know what you are talking about just read don't post trivial stuff like some, there are other forums for that at FF. Good Luck.
Over thinking over analyzing separates the body from the mind.

may be we should open one without leverage
I checked it but no. USD/INR is right at support now, could go 500 pips in the wrong direction.
Even high interest cannot cover that risk. If it breaks the support it would be interesting but that is unlikely imo at the moment with coming possible dollar strength.

I have spotted a bearish pennant, trending in red lines,I think it could drop within the range of 1.3180 and 1.3160 (support) before a reversal. Views?
bearish pennant and reversal?? kindly explain...........if it's bearish, a move up is not 'reversal', it's 'retracement'? or you're suggesting a trend change there?
trading is my zen

There is going to be a gap, whether it will be up or down I cant decide.
The Greece ratings cut would suggest a open below 1.3189.

No GAP visible yet. I hope I can take my profits out at normal spread before we go up, was too late Friday to do that.

So are you expecting it to close below your bottom trendline or bounce from it?
I observe your reality but live my own.

Well.. I am defending this position from 55 from last year and RBI started intervening.
India economy can collapse if it stays 60 as inflation will close 14% in that case
Right now if you deposit your money in FD/CD there for one year rate of interest is 10.25% and dollar at 60 and high oil prices will have bad impact on economy

Fundamentals doesn't support that and I think worst is over for now even if greece default
Only scenario of reaching there in few months will be geographical tensions between Asian countries like war.
Also Israel attack Iran and oil supply impacted.

I expect little gap down of AUD/EUR:
1) Negative Greece rating further down by Moody's late friday
2) positive: BP oil spill struck a deal

That's my line of thinking...

We have a double top formation on the 4hr chart, which should culminate at 1.3250, but with chart formations, it never happens in a straight line, there should still be a bounce of 1.3315/20 which was a strong resistance earlier before it broke, which now turns into a support (not sure how strong).

Once it bounces to the 1.336x/7x region, and hits my TP, I will then reload a few test shorts targeting 1.3250.

We'll see how it goes today. But overall, I see a reversal in the daily chart which might hint that the...
Came back for a company retreat... left a few sell limits around 1.331 - 1.333 targeting 1.32.

Was pleasantly surprised that all got hit (both limits and TPs). My single most effective day ironically was the day that I couldn't touch directly all of my open trades... hahahah....

Will be traveling again in two more days (this time overseas trip to California with the family). Might leave a few small positions (both long - small TPs (1.32 to 1.3250, and short - bigger TPs (1.325/1.330 to 1.31) while maintaining the correct MM.
Buy! Buy! Sell! Sell! Just make sure you have proper MM!
