{quote} that depends I feel happy for the fact that somebody stands behind him and showed him the right way, not trying to jump on you here again but your posts seems to be very immature, at least for me. btw his understanding of market mechanics are way beyond average here, that is why he got my V and I think he got what it takes to be a trader. He isthe only guy here who look at the bond market vs fx, did you notice?
Is he? Canīt be. I personally donīt do sh_t in neither in FX nor in major indices without consulting FI first. I doubt any serious trader can do without bigger picture, everything is interconnected in these markets and bonds quite often lead the way...

Nah, it all gets way more complicated and harder to grow when you get to certain amounts, trust me...Itīs a certain advantage to be nimble and trade only such small amount, when you get larger, manage more money, thatīs where real deal begins.

GS don't tend to act as buysiders (at least publicly) - but I would like to be sell-side for a period of time ,but definitely move to prop/buy side.

Hi, what triggered your interest in all these? What was the first thing you learn? Bond, equities or FX? From books or terminals?

I first learnt stocks - they are shit boring, then moved to FX - still very boring in comparison to bond and credit markets. From work experience, terminal and wikipedia

I'm not convinced the bull run is over.

Just a gut feeling. Market hasn't dropped enough, any news could take us back over 1.3300..
Even the worst trade can close with profit. Just give it time.

Hmm... Ive always been dubious about these announcements, but hey they are what move the market and send it through S/R levels.

Market shouldnt move too much until then

Only thing really watching today is UJ to see 98.7 top of upper TL for downward channel

true..

stocks are boring and move slowly compared to FX and GS&Bond markets.
however i think i'll have to disagree with FX being boring since i think FX would give you the opportunity to make money thru swing trade and scalping.. GS(government securities) & Bonds on the other hand should be traded with longer term views..

this is just my opinion and i would like to better understand your statement because from where i come from(phil), prop desk makes huge money by positioning huge amounts but for fx prop, traders can churn and make money without tapping too much from bank funds.

can you please elaborate why you say bond and credit markets isnt boring compared to fx?
thanks. i hope you could enlighten me..
