{quote} from what I see, cable is under distribution phase and vulnerable to downside attack.

i suspect from behaviour, there's stockist , and hording.
is not real dd/ss, is stockist BIG enough turn every which way they like with what ever volitility they want create take all participants to the cleaners.
in a way is a monopoly already.

in free markets, everything happens, overshoots, volatilty...etc, and it happens allin random flow.
these behaviours and sudden jerks very organised. is clear if you monitoring the chart flows.
is very clear syndicated work in covert ops.
question is who? is not normal protocol for authorities, so has to be 3 party, or powers in guise.

maybe they trying get rid of all players , so that they control it in totality.

Did a leveraged flip on my cable short position and closed out for a nice profit at 25. All square and calling it a day - don't want to push my luck. Hope everybody else is trading profitably and if not I hope I took your money

Edit: Hmmm, perhaps I could have played a little longer.

Yes, that was just my greed talking. But to be honest, nowadays I am always happy when I make a profit. I don't really care if it goes up anther 200 pips after I have squared out. I can't sit at my trading station 24 hours a day.

I transferred my funds and they arrived in the UK today. Now I am dithering and I have stage fright! I am torn between brokers. I don't really want to give either of them too much cash and one of them I used to get a lot of requotes from but they have what they call their ECN service on MT5 now, which does have more attractive spreads.

I'm under no illusions that an ECN service that accepts trades as small as a micro lot up to 50 full lots has anything to do with the real market but there is no dealing desk intervention, it is supposed to be a matching system. I am tempted to take it for a test run with a small amount and see if my trades get filled at the prices I want.

I have been humming and harring over a cpu upgrade. I think I'm just using it as a delaying tactic because I'm a little bit scared.

important is RAM, flood to maximum OS can handle.

greed and fear is emotions all humans have. my friend.
is nothing good or bad.must be kept under managable levels only.

Only advice is keep it up.
Build the pot nicely and not get adventurous.

Remember you make money to spend.
So save some for rainy days and spend some to feel good.

when things are good, why you thinking rock the boat. Relax cool enjoy, build the empire slowly. you may be next soros. Never knows.

P.P.S. Yes, building slowly, taking some back to bless family. Have tickets for the whole family (4) to go to Europe for all August.

Your advice is always welcome. Most of the programmers I worked with knew very little about hardware, including me. That's probably why we wrote such awful applications

I'll probably just stick with the dual-core processor I have and upgrade the GPU so I can run multiple monitors - that's another area I can't make my mind up about. I was going to get 2 x 23-inch IPS panels (1920x1020) and use them with my desktop - for trading and charts. The 22-inch monitor (1680x1050) that I already have I was going to stick to one side and run from my laptop with Bloomberg TV or CNBC on it to keep me company. Then I saw that the new monitors I was looking at also came in a nice 27-inch IPS panel, so I am tempted to get two of those instead of the 23-inch models. I'm not sure if that is going over the top or is more always better as far as screen real estate is concerned?

I apologise for my idiotic questions - it's these small details that I am obssessing over now the time to stop talking and start acting has finally come.

Edit; What frightens me more than losing my starting capital is sitting in front of my shiny new monitors and looking like an absolute fool as I fail completely - I think I must be going mad. Maybe I have come to share the Thai fear of losing face, having lived here for so long!
