A proper trader would be making money from this 20 pip range in EU. All I'm doing is sitting on my hands waiting for the trend. Not good enough...

Haha! the battle continues! 15 pips from squared at this time.

I agree that I should be squared by now but had to leave the battle for a bit.

Have you profited from the range sir? I sincerely hope so.

Good Trading

Do you think having a fixed disaster stop a bad idea? How deep are you willing you go into drawdown? It's cold and dark down there. And many octopus. (RIP Aunt Mabel...)
I'm having a fixed SL, however I go with the flow, I get into the market only when it signals that the bull/bear is coming strong and usually after the sitting ducks have already been killed. It saves me from sleepless nights or constantly worrying about the market. As long as the risk is manageable, there's nothing to worry if the stop is hit.

I get into position not expecting to win but how much loss I'm happy to take today

25 pips. Dismal work. The Asian session at its volatile best. We'll see what tonight brings.

I'm off now to enjoy a good game of chess. ie. my weekly dose of ego management and humility training. My opponent is one mean player. A few years ago, I watched him challenge a Grand Master (who finally offered him a draw). If I'm lucky, I manage to win once a year...

Something is better than nothing.

Only played chess once in my life, beat the person who showed me while being taught.

Beginners luck I'm sure. LOL.

Great game

If Fred trades 10k, he can leave 90k in the bank. Yes, he risks his position snowballing in rescue mode, but if his disaster stop is 10% of 100k (to preserve capital), the total size of the account with the broker actually makes no difference. On the other hand, if Fred deposits 100k, all of his spare capital is with the broker, and that also sounds risky. Not only that, the temptation to exceed 10% drawdown will always be there.

Dongsky, suppose dear Aunt Mabel is eaten by an octopus (her hobby was fishing) and leaves you 100k in her will....

reminds me of the pussy word.Octopussy.
how did they manage sneak that pass public eyes?
probably by using the eyes.

waiting for uk rates is boring as hell.

was thinking about europe.
You know when have neighbours, is best when they friendly.
If anyone gets in trouble then those who can will chip in to help.
Its a different game, when all the neighbours are in bed with each other.
makes all in a wierd situation.

in the 1st place they are neigbours because they not compatable for marraige.
so now that neighbours are encouraging the junky daughters.
Makes one wonder what they're up to doesn't it?
Now they getting all in the soup.
get more cupboards!.

ai ya sick old man better get some rest before the big news breaks.
