worst trade to be in if you're short.. down 10 pips, up 12.. horrible..
Yes bad day! Even a retracement from high to low (less spread) is 20 pips if you can get tops and bottom.
I don't like being in a trade for less than 20 pips so i skip EU for now

Would really like to see 125.90ish get retested. Bulls are not in the clear yet.

What can help is analyzing your trades carefully, what I found was;

Winning trades - Nearly all were entered for legit reasons not just trying my luck

Losing trades - Nearly all were entered trying my luck (or revenge trading), not for legit reasons

Create a set of rules & try to stick to them, also trade management is a massive thing. I've lost too much profit by not keeping S/L's tight or by opening extra positions.

I also put too much pressure on myself sometimes, I'm keen to make this my full time job at some point but need to take my time...
That's spot on I use an asi trendline break with rising atr and when I stick to my rules the sucess rate is high - 90%. However, over excitment or boredom can sometimes force me to take unecessary risks. Most of which fail. I saw a tag line from one of the members on here once which said (something along the lines of) "the difference between trading and gambling is dicipline".

The bottom of that wedge I posted earlier is around 3408.. so if it plays out it will confirm the up trend back in business and we can long all the way into 3700..

That would also give shorts some relief and longs a better place to load.. We're approaching 3500 so on your toes peoples.

Mine went flying out the window yesterday and wiped out all my profits from the past 3 weeks. Losing when you are ill disiplined is good as it reminds you why you need to stay disiplined, it is when you have a string of winning trades because of poor disipline it that it becomes dangerous.
I did the same on Friday - I had a good week which was somewhat dented by a brain meldown on Friday. Knew I should have gone to the pub lol Hope you're on the road to recovery.

good thing.. 127.33 is still valid.. but it may best to rethink and s if it gets there. same with eu 3501 or 3587.. if it gets there it may drop to the pip.
looking for weakness soon, looking is looking, some r just below 3500 349x... 3501 is a min target... 3583 is norm before 3205.

Sad but so true... I can't agree more... UK is royally fooked...!
What really pisses me off is that Europe and the rest is really messing up my home country (Switzerland). The Swiss are doing just fine, mostly because it's a nation of savers and domestic demand can cover a loss of exports...plus, our main exports are specialty goods that sell even during a crisis (luxury watches, pharmaceutical stuff, etc.). Also pissing me off that they now have to slow real estate growth (I have 2 flats there) because everyone and his dog seems to wanna invest in Swiss real estate.

Hell, we had an CHF800m surplus recently...while the rest are running a deficit. Beers are worse though, and the "farmers" in the center of the country are small-minded (super annoying) racists. Standard of living is unbeatable though, the US and UK can't compare. Also really nice to see so many expats in Zurich, Basel and Geneva. Every time I go home I visit our local Irish pubs, and all you hear is English
