{quote} Oh, I see Glad to hear you are making progress. On a side note, I stumbled upon CrucialPoint's (one of my favorite posters on FF) suggested reading list of books that helped him to become a more efficient trader. It is fairly long but seems pretty interesting. You can find the word document in his post. http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...59#post6960159
Thanks!

DAX +18, XAU +15

Hope you gained some pips today, finally momentum on DAX and XAU as well. I had not time for trading today, and I came from work absoutely exhausted and I do not recommend trade in condition like this to anyone. I saw momentum so after few minutes of analysis I jumped to trend continuation, to make some quick pips, so only 2 trades today, everything else is not marked real time. All clues are in the chart. Couple more pics to show you just the same situation from few days back on DAX (whole trend fibo retrace) - everybody who was watching higher Renko or TF could see this.

My house was high enough not to be effected....the poor are not so lucky. When someone in the west pumps 100 bucks worth of premium into his f350 he has to consider the fact that someone living in a squat in the third world loses everything....

That's good that it did not hit you. You're right, many people do not appreciate the fact that they are doing well and unfortunately also forget to help people who have really big problems.
We should make a lot of money to change something.

XAU +12

Just arrived home, same situation as yesterday, no time for trading so only quick counter-trend scalp on XAU. I was before few seconds in sell again, but no momentum at this moment and no energy to wait for it, so I closed. Necessary mistake, but it is better for my (imaginary) account. Every day in gain is a good day.

erkro, absolutely lovely trades

This is a hind-site chart but i thought I would post it as it looks interesting....Most of us myself included keep our indies like macd and stochs in a thin ribbon at the bottom of the screen. Something I have been playing around with is splitting the screen equally between renco and macd to highlight divergence. I was sound asleep when this chart was in play but it seemed to identify price re-joining momentum rather well.....

XAU +20

Hello everybody in new week, not working today so I decided to start demo. Absolutely without momentum, but one pretty obvious trade, just look at the bigger picture, clear downtrend, all signals are marked in the screen.
