But guess what, he will hit a margin call before he reaches that level...
Why sell the bottoms when you can buy the tops...

{quote} do not judge him, he is trying make $100 trillion by the age of 100.
Can someone tell me how can one make 3 mistakes during one trade ? I opened quite nice short on Dow with perfect entry. Then:
1. hungry to close for ONLY 250 points in 5 hours (my target was 700 in a week)
2. hungry again, refusing to close as break-even next day
3. fear, closing -250 points looks too much for me. 2 minutes after Dow drops. (this is my special skill, I always dump trades right on top/bottom or reversal candle...)

Just for the record, the trend line was there all the time since 21th 9:00. I knew it's happening but did not react to close it. any idea ?
buying tops / selling bottoms

Expected the week to close below 0800 but 0730 is not taken out...
Anyone seeing gap down on Monday opening or at least a kiss of 0730 in early Asia on Monday??

When you hit 50, coffee becomes part of a proper modeling pipeline.

{quote} Yeah I don't think he can survive that, most don't. He's had a pretty good run there, might be time to protect that. Sounds like he has a goal (or a cause) in mind but the markets don't care what your reason is. They'll chew you up without regard. Hopefully he reconsiders and scales back.

{quote} Yep..
Gents thank you for your concern and attention. I know- believe me I do - that I trade over leveraged but as you can imagine we all have different risk appetite and different financial circumstances. It is not like I am not aware of what I am doing. I blew my account several times and I know what you will say here " doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is plain stupid". However my situation is a little different but I can't disclose my private matters here on an internet forum.
Again thank you for your attention and concern, I feel I am among some good people here. I sincerely hope everyone absolutely everyone - even the ones I ignore - in this place makes what he/she hopes. Currency trading is not an easy thing and we are all stressed out everyday spending our precious hours of our lives.
Have a great weekend. I am so tired right now that I have nothing but just crash into my bed on my mind.
