In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time
{quote} CAD will not be clear on direction until BOC announce their rate.Last time they gave signals they might cut to .25. Staying clear as far as buying the cad until this is announced.

Davit I'm actually getting this 
Even when i finally got it, I wasn't even sure i had it because of so many failures in the 2 years of trying and blowing accounts.
I captured around 200 pips on EURAUD the other day on demo and wasn't sure if i got the technique. managed 90 pips on EURJPY today before the move with no news. I can't thank you enough for what you're doing in this thread
I hope your son is healed and well once he's home. Prayers.

Its important to start switching your mind how you see trading in general.Typically a retail traders wins and dies by few trades.He goes all in hoping a homerun or get busted.
My approach is total opposite.Its about lots and lots of mini victories (just see how many GS posts here) hence you must try this at least 3 months to see results.
Quarterly approach is healthy.It takes the pressure off that you must show profit everyday or week.Does not have to be like that.Control your risk set boundaries what your SL should be then stick with it.Example you decide to buy NU at 7150 set SL 70 or better 6980 then leave it alone.Let the trade do its thing.Your positions should not be large that it becomes detrimental to your account should it not work out.Keep positions small.Allow your brain to relax.Trading should be stress free.
Watch all Mark Douglass videos on trading specially on probability. Good luck
