There are quite alot: Doubt, confusion , hesitation, denial ... In my personal experience i found that Greed and fear are you best friends. The fear of losing more could lead you to cut your loses in a falling knife scenario, or Greed let you ride on a lunching rocket without hesitation you are buying the highs.

{quote} Simple thing that will help a lot. Write everything down before taking a trade... that will take care of the psychological part, or most of it anyway. I do the following things: 1. write down the overall view (some of it I also post here) at the day start. 2. write down the technicals. I have 11 things I cover. Once a day also 3. for each trade I fill out an 18 fiels form, and 2 fields after + chart before and chart after.. That's when not scalping. There is a quick come to Jesus meeting with myself after each trade..

Jeepers! that's quite alot!

I'll have to look into that...

Got stopped BE on last short, trying again from higher up this time 3647... Will move to BE once we get a push away

{quote} books for trading are useless.
Then how about a book about a useless trader...



Written by a member of Forex Factory, for members of Forex Factory, and beyond, the blurb for the book goes like this:

For the 95 percent of currency traders that fail to make it rich, come and join a fellow sufferer for a week of ups and downs.

For Pip’s Sake! will leave you nodding in agreement at how the currency markets often confuse. Angry at how the political and economic industries leave you last in the queue. Laughing at how the author haplessly tries to become part of the 5 percent club.

Yes, a not without some semblance of shame approach for an audience that will hopefully appreciate the work, and announce its arrival to their family, friends, work colleagues, social media contacts and so on, and so on, and so on. (I’m not that familiar with marketing, and hope that the FF community could help out a little on this front. This would include some kind reviews on Amazon )

Readable with Kindles, For Pip’s Sake! can also be read on iPads, PCs, Macs, Blackberries, iPhones, Android devices, and goodness knows what else, by using the following application (link).

The book is available at your local Amazon account… with a free sample offered to those averse to personal expenses.

Yours sincerely,

Damon Cockcroft

Author of For Pip’s Sake!

I am actually little amazed and baffled the ignorance level with some here.
There are literally hundreds of systems on system thread that went dead and old posters stopped posting.All evidence of 95% failure statistics.
Best some do here is puff their chest act superior when their accounts show miserable performance.Instead of trying to solve issues to overcome they are happy being ignorant.
When Ed Seykota said "everyone takes from market what they deserve" is 100% true.
In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

I reckon it's in a bounce mode, but don(t think that it will before TY session. I took this short only for few pips, i'll exit if clear close above 8974 in M1.

How was your day ? Enjoyed the UJ kaboom ?

{quote} Don't be too quick to judge.Book covers lot more then trading.I am always in opinion that trading is evolution both skill and mental.If you are weak on either you won't succeed. Charts don't cover what is between your ears.Trading requires certain mental outlook which is the key to me to succeed.For example you often read a new trader blowing one account after another and repeating same mistakes often not even realizing, because behavior creates new pathways much like playing piano on wrong hand posture and once that becomes ingrained it...
Agreed n agreed with ur earlier post too

Hmm, today's PA is lacklustre at best, in my opinion, and with the daily Guppy profiles on EU and the Dollar not convincing me that any significant change is about to occur.

I would say that the news from the ADP, FOMC and NFP releases later this week will determine direction - the Dollar to me looks poised to break north from the resistance on the 76.4 FE that it has been tapping away at now for what is over a week.

I don't expect any surprises from Europe, or the UK, of QE or interest rates changes... which means that with my track record of speculation, they will rocket!

I'm still considering the pin on EU that kissed the descending magenta TL... yes, it is increasingly convincing me that EU will be heading south over the next few weeks.

In our beautiful democratical world, it doesn't work this way. Of course, bullshit, I'm equal to Chopin with my Yamaha synthesizer. You doubt that ? You are fighting a lost battle, unfortunately.
