To all my friends--
I will have new medical sessions. My family want me to go back to hometown to do it.

Trading will be difficult with only one laptop. So I decide to re-allocate back to hometown. That means lots of people around will disturb my trading, off-trading time will be occupied by them too.

I will be missing my online activities, especially TAF thread.

Anyway, have to go out of computer for eyes sake.

Wish you all happy pipping everyday!
Hi Jenny,

Do take good care and enjoy life. Remember the sand piper story！A beautiful story that set a important purposes in our life.

Will miss your presence definitely!!

imjscn, good luck with the eyes. In three months, three of my family have had eye ops (yes really three of them, reunions are like an army battle hospital at present). All three were naturally worried before the ops, all three of them had significant problems, like my dad who couldnt even read before he went in, but now all three of them have the eyesight they had in their youth and their only regret was not having the ops sooner. Hopefully the medics can help you similarly.

Hi N, thanks for the reply.

Mamood mentioned when PA is not in our favor, scale out.

However, if we have troops stuck when PA is not in our favor AND troops are in rescuable situation, shouldn't we increase exposure to bring the troops home?
Hi Kinky,

I'm afraid that I cannot continue this discussion as I believe this is not the right thread to discuss Mamood's MO.

Further, I will be taking a short break to find myself. I believe many other Seniors here are more qualified to teach you.

I know this may sound disappointing to you, but believe me that all that is needed is in the first 200pages. I can sense that you are already in the right mindset to understand what was presented. Do try to go thru' the materials one more time and ask questions pertaining to those if you are unclear.

All the best and trade safe.

A preset parameter works well with systematical trading.
But, with TAF, you can relax a bit. Try to enjoy the trading activity itself.

Try to adopt trading as part of your daily life. You unlikely to judge how much to eat for dinner. But you like to judge how much to make in trading. That makes dinner relaxing and pleasant while trading is stressful.
Just manage your army properly, they will perform better.

Imjscn, Sorry for the late reply. Been away from the computer the whole week end. Tried to make up the lost time with family, being away from family monday to friday, especially with my kid. Even we still live in the same house yet I feel that I am so far away from family when trading.

Anyway.... Yes, I realize that with TAF we can relax a bit and can enjoy trading activity itself, that is when the MM is proper and the size is within rescue-able if we are wrong.

Your post and Vic's have enlightened me a lot, it's a wake up call. Thanks.

yes 100k into 1,000k and 10k into 100k is difficult. more difficult is 10k into 1,000k

Yes, you need to make 900 K to get you from 100 k to 1,000 K. And you only need 90 K, from 10k to 100K. Although the percentage needed to get to the target is the same which is 1,000%, the emotion involved could be different as we tend to look at the $ number than the percentage.

Dear Friends. Unless you are in or (off) the thread, please take care about the health. It is one big threasure when it is OK. Once it is lost, life is not the same as before. Good news are always welcomed, but we can do something more at least for ourselves. Dont smoke too much, drink wisely, do some sport and eat balanced food, vitamins. Reduce stress... Sorry that i am so "bad", but.... you know.... Today i was in hospital and they told me i am OK, but i was very frightened before... just imagine! You dont know and in 2days you will know.... that waiting was terrible. Sitting in front of the white door in hospital... come in... Regards

N Trader. I hope you find what ever it is you feel you are in need of, the spoken/written word is very powerful but remember it is only someone expressing themselves at that point in time through the way we all communicate and can easily be misinterpreted by another, good luck.

Thank you Vick.

One of the question, that has been bothering me is this :

** What is most efficient return/profit for this style (TAF Style)?**

What I mean is let say, some people say it's 1% per day, some might say 50% a month etc. By efficient, I meant, doing it without putting the balance in danger (large DD).

Well, of course if we want to be very safe, we should trade very small, but then the return is too tiny.

Some say, the account must be able to sustain say 750 pips movement...
etc..etc...

I have been trying experimenting...
Read the thread. Does the term "Foreign capital" ring any bells? Maybe Wilders "loss table"?

You are definitely approaching trading from the wrong angle.

No, mine was blown, twice. Well, it was mini account.
How to make a million $? You need $2mil to begin with.

From a mini perspective, if you have $200 in your account, in some time you can make a $100.. will it be sufficient?

Maybe think about capitalization again.

Sorry for "managing expectations",

Hi FTI,

Sometimes you take these things too personal. I guess the emotions come from experience.

You can't save those who don't listen. Some people ignore speed limit signs and crash into a tree. Darwin at work.
