well, i am hopefully building up the account againg ^^
i got a little bit in trouble because i made some error on brent in april/may and a big part of the money was used for some holidays.
the last 2 months i did relatively well...until Mr. Ben Bernanke spoke and i got both times very surprised by market reaction and got hit on the wrong food...
i think tomorrow i will find some good activity from 7.55-11 pm MET ...far away from pc and phone

what's happening wm-eu?

Thanks :-)
i do my best ;-)

nice results

thank you very much :-)
i am giving my best ^^

wm-eu you have potential to be a very good trader with spectacular results.

thanks :-) and i will take care about the leverage ;-)

well, november was really extraordinary good ^^

i even implemented a new "system" to reduce the risk. basically i deposit a part of my weekly gains on a seperate acc. on which i dont make any trades - so, even if i blow the acc. i have still a nice part of my money back and at the long end my overall accounts performance will be lower but more stable. this reduces the risk and also my gains but i think its worth ^^

wm-eu you're back. nice results as always. don't overleverage!

well, i overleveraged a position - again...

basically i was buying a CFD on the Dax after it had sunken abt. 1.5% - i was pretty sure that it could go up 0.1-0.2% and bring me some nice gain.
especially on this week i set my target higher than usual, coz i am making some holiday next week and i wanted to pay it with gains from fx-trading...

basically the error is always the same:
to trade to aggressive and following to that an overleveraging an as a following to that i m mostly unable to manage the trade, coz i have no more free money

this week i was trading also really aggressive, but this time successful (even sometimes it looks a lil bit like gambling - so absolutely no trading style for long term success) and i was able to recover a nice part of my loss

hey wm-eu once again you grew your account only to blow the whole thing in a couple of transactions. what was the problem this time?
