wanna see my losing trade?
We all have losses, 2 days ago I setup Oanda MT4 and my first 4 trades went bad, I lost 2.5% of my trading account balance but with this GJ surprise my account balance is now + 3%

It's quieter in here than I'd expect it to be now that we've finally got a good move in the beast.

I think a lot of people started second guessing their longs last night and got out or even start shorting. Patience can be a hard nut to crack in this game!

Patience is key brother You know me just sitting on these babies until they hatch, might have to wait until next year

Alright, enough of this monkey business... I'm out a bit before my target. She may still run up, and I hope she does for any of you still long. But I've got enough pips on the table that it's time to clear them off and start over again.

On the sidelines for now...

Trust me, bro... I respect that. Last year I had some epic trades in EUR/GBP and EUR/AUD where I was just holding for months and pyramiding. Those pairs tend to trend a lot cleaner though. With the violent moves we get in geppy, I can't resist trading in and out.

We all need a little luck besides our trading experience right?

Ok, got my 25% back

Time to scalp this range to death until she decides a direction.
Ok...where's the "kick myself in the ass" icon??

Congrats to all of you who, unlike me, stuck with your longs....

I made back the 25% but could have had some more. Two bad choices this week (little kick my own ass icon here) lol

And looking at the clock, the dow jones and such, yes I would say we have seen the high for today.

Yeah dude, that's the thing about scalping ranges... you never know when the range is going to break.

I often kick myself for not taking profit and buying back when things are ranging, but then I remind myself that you just never know.

It happens, we learn from it, we become better traders.

And Indian rupees, I'm always short there because of the high interest it pays, but now I'm even positive in pips

Funny thing is, I never got a scalp in. I booked my profit to recover that 25% and it never really looked back enough for any signs. LOL

No doubt I'm having a hard time adjusting to the larger time frames and the holding needed. But I'll get there at some point.

As am I, I'd like to wait to get in a higher price though, on or around the .50 level. Being anal with entrys has its downsides at times as they sometimes never get hit..

Short term direction is still up though.....
