Hello US/JPY YEN Masters are hard core gamblers they will be back to light up the charts
Count me as one of those...

Actually took a big loss last night on this down move and kinda pissed that I was foolish enough to mess up the short-term success I had earned, and now I have to start over yet again (with options), but hey that's trading for ya. It seems whenever I get a glimpse of success, I always do something... somehow... to fuck it up. Maybe because it also helps to trade sober... and when you're not exhausted.

Good job bears and yes allisonmagic you were right. You got past me

But rest assured, I will be back.

Sooner or later it all comes true.

In trading, I like to live in the "present" for whatever that means.

I took a decent loss on a long in gbp/yen last night. Recovered today though going long just under 101 with 3 lots.

ouch. g/j would be a tough pair to be long last night -- even though i'm still net bullish the pair. i pretty much made the same mistake except with u/j. nice job recovering though! i know that can be hhard work. i'm working on a recovery as we speak, but sadly, it'll take some time now to regain the 3,000%+ i just lost.

greed sucks!!!

Yeah, I wasn't down that much but waited for pmi to come out because GBP has been so strong and got hosed.

Ouch! 3000%? Did you not have a stop loss in place? You must have had some major gains to be able to stomach that lol. Green pips to ya!

Tuesday should be another down day for U/J. Has already put in a 38.2% retrace of Monday's move. Expect at least another low past 100.77. Giving a specific target below there is just guesswork.

Well, as long as we learn from our mistakes, right?

Yeah... tell me about it (actually, don't). I'm honestly a bit embarrassed about what happened last night, because I should have known better. For some reason I have to repeat the same mistake about 10 times over before it actually "clicks" in my head and I can learn from it... lol

I can't tell you the number of times I've busted my account, but that's probably because my expectations are so high. 1,000% even 10,000% for me is never enough!

And yes, I am an extremely aggressive trader but only because I have a wicked good system that I trust beyond the shadow of a doubt if I'm actually sober enough to interpret the signals That is why I'm so mad for losing last night b/c my system was telling me to go short but I didn't follow the signal because I let my own bias get in the way. I also feel asleep in the middle of the trade and well, yeah, that doesn't help either. You sure need some thick skin to trade binary options the way I do. It's definitely not for everyone, but I love it. No other form of trading comes close, in my opinion. It's great for dreamers like me But I have been sharpening my day trading skills and system for a few years now and I won't settle for anything less than perfection -- even if it means the harder and longer road to success -- so I guess I'm not your average trader.

Btw, I don't use a stop loss. But I bet y'all are thinking that I should! I prefer to keep a close eye on the market though and just exit the trade should things start to head south. It works well... as long as you are awake!
