That is a reasonable question, my educated guess would be US didn't have enough opportunity to sell yesterday and PA brought us back to here. Don't like to speculate but I somehow expect a sell-off any minute within the next 90 mins. Watching the clock as you used to say...
Is this a gut feeling Matt, or something your charts are telling you?

sorry bro I meant to replay on another post, I cant calm dawn because I lost 25% off my account 2 days in a row. I am trading for two years and still cant get it right. I could be called Mr. margin call. I just want to make my account big enough to trade safe and earn for a living, if I trade safe now without my day job I could earn about two$ a day. I just need three good trades but I get destroyed and crashed and have to get up in a morning and go to work to start from 0 again. Its getting harder and harder get back on the horse, sometimes...
+ 130 pips today, contrast from yesterday's worrying 14% DD. Everything recovered thanks to today's bulls, but yeah it's bloody. I was doing guerilla 5 pips scalp to up my margin little by little coz I was worried of a possible margin call since most called for the EURO to tank from yesterday's news and my clumsiness of mistaking the previous ZEW statement as the actual one.

But I kept a cool head by being busy, dumb bells, push ups, guitar, bejeweled and spider solitaire and endless space 4x games. Anything to keep my negativity distracted. I'm almost always where you are but it works out in our favor when we keep cool. Hope it works out for you too. Soldier on bro.

Its should be for everyone. I learned everything else in my life with a hard work in the school and with doing things, so far I have just doing this thing and havent really learned about it deeper than just basics. Its hard for me to learn with books I need a good practice and good teacher but so far there have not been opportunities in my life to meet somebody who is really good and willing to work with me, I havent met any trader in my life, just here in internet. Probably some of you have learned in schools for trading.

Go back to demo, test a number of strategies and find one that suits your personality. Then keep testing it day in day out until you know what you're doing.

Once you've doubled your demo account, do it again from start on another demo. When you double that one too, you might be ready to try a real account. Which is where the emotions kick in, since it's so easy trading fake money but when you put your own capital up, suddenly the game changes. You need a cool head to work out a system that will work for you. It does take a long time to get there. Took me only 3 years but only because I had the luxury of time to sit, watch and learn for about 10 hours every day. It's the most difficult type of journey - one of personal discovery. Some people never get there but the lucky few are strong enough to work out the psych traumas of blowing up an account or two then learn from the experience. Those that are ready to push on and not call themselves victims, but rather figure out what went wrong and use it to their advantage are the ones who are usually the kind of strong-minded people who don't let anything stand in the way of their goals. And at that point, your friends and family start calling you "evil", "ice-queen", "thief", "cold bitch" just because you won't let them rob you blind

PM me how you trade and I will do my best to give you some risk management tips. You should not lose such percentages in a short time, you will never survive this way...

fair enough pal. Uncle Ben can turn technicals to mish mash of course, but from purely a technical viewpoint, I've got more bullishness on my charts than we've had since the beginning of March. Whatever sell off may be waiting in the wings for later, if any, this won't change the technical picture.

You use too much leverage (or generally bad money management) if you can get a drawdown of 14% in a single day.

Market loves flinging this pair down just for the hell of it recently, could see it happening again. This downtrend seems relentless, 1.37 to here and still no retrace. And as Max showed on his monthly chart earlier there seems room to fall, I'm still pissed off at the flimsy reasons that triggered this deep a move down but that's the hand we've been dealt

Closed my earlier buy dip position for BE, waiting & watching. Don't forget its FOMC later

Thanks, I use to do that but now I just dont have a time I worked late to save money for forex, and now I will have to do it again. I love going to gym and it really takes all my bad feelings away and I wish I would be able to start again, cauz I have a 2 month brake after a nice 6 month non stop. I need more luck and more time. Thanks again for trying to help.

I am not as bearish as Max but he is most likely right. I still think we will end the month above 1.3060s...
