Break of the Yearly high and GU spike for 31 pips, crazy
Observation is the path to discovery.
One last post and I'll have to put it to bed. (My candida infection is demanding attention! 
)
I used to be a hot head. And it was miserable and wrecked my relationships. It's been the journey of a lifetime, but with lots of help from Above, I've changed that behavior.
Something that helped me, a lot, was The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz, who received them from his Toltec grandmother. I'm paraphrasing a bit but retaining the original meaning, I believe.
1. Never take things personally. (No one can get your goat unless you goat is available. I take full responsibility for ever getting upset, without blaming myself, or others. Mea culpa!)
2. Never criticize others. (If you observe carefully, people who criticize others overlook their own faults, or they're overly critical of themselves. Either creates an imbalance. Bottom line: everyone is just working with what's in their heads, so no one has the right to criticize anyone else.)
3. Be a person of your word. (I no longer give my word easily, because if given, I know I must honor it. That way others always know where I stand. Sometimes, due to circumstances, I am forced to break this rule, but it doesn't feel good.)
4. Always do your best, no more, and no less. (You can do either. For workaholics overdoing is the danger, for traders it's overtrading, for traders looking for the Holy Grail to escape the hard work of trading, it's underdoing. Balance is the best.)
Simple, but not easy. Especially, if you have a lifetime of bad habits like I did! But you can get help, if you ask for it, sincerely.
You may be able to be a great trader without honoring these agreements. But you can never be a great person, which is what prepares you for the final journey.
Good night, and best wishes to all! May all your trades be happy ones!
