That works well because I'm not interested in others' opinions on my trading.

I was going to discuss my trading thoughts in writing, but am instead posting this as a reminder to myself of my dedication to my current philosophy to not do so. :X No trades at the moment.

Cancelled : )

0 Wins, 0 Losses. Percentage: x% Cumulative Risk Premia: N/A Average Risk Premia return 11/2 - Looking at a possible reversal here. I will not describe as I remember how easy it was to manipulate personal descriptions in order to serve standard human bias in trades. Also, I want to...

0 Wins, 0 Losses. Percentage: x% Cumulative Risk Premia: N/A Average Risk Premia return: My trading goal is to be patient and take only high-percentage trades, hopefully with expected returns on wins 2x or above the risk. For each trade, I will have an enter point and a stop...

After about 14 months since I quit trading, I thought I may make a comeback doing some minor swing paper trading the EUR/USD. I traded forex for about 12 months ending one year ago while finishing high school and entering my first year of college. I had about 60-80 live trades netting a 1.1%...

At the moment I don't plan to actively trade or update this journal for a long time. However, I was considering going through and uploading several of my personal charts that had helped me considerably and sharing some of what I found about the market to others who might be looking for that...

haha yes I'm with Oanda. There's pretty much no use in me trading for money right now because I have little (and dwindling...) to start, it's just a hobby and good experience if I find myself in the field. I noticed you are trading better as you stated in your thread. Keep up the good work!

Haha I knew this reply was coming! 1. I've been back and forth between live and paper this year. I'm live for now. 2. My risk per trade is set at just a few dollars per trade. My lots were small before but much small now that I'm swing. 3. I haven't finished my list of pairs. I...

Thank you. Trading really can't be anything more than a hobby to me based on the time and capital I have, but yes I know there is a lot of truth in what you're saying. I'm only risking $20 to start (4x my risk per trade of $5 is my account drawdown), and I am okay with losing that much...

yes of course I see your point, I just had to pinpoint your angle a bit. And I admit I agree with you completely. There were a few times I was reaching 30 hours per week such as last summer and winter, but I'm but I'm not even committed enough to work that hard anymore. In fact trading is...

I'm happy to hear your view, asiaprop. Are you a philosophical man? I can tell you a million things about why I'm driven and why I'm not, but to really understand what you're targeting I'll ask a few questions. My posts so far - it seems you are saying that I should be working and not...

:D LOL nothing to brag about since I said I was taking a break but I'm working on it. It's actually funny you mention it. I've only traded once all month and only put in a bit of time maybe once or twice a week. -- I work with a lot of hotties from El Salvador and I've spent more time at...

Thought I would teach you all something today. I drew this trendline in December and haven't looked at it since (until now). I call them leaning bars.

Anyone else see that this OS will be open-source and free download, just like the Chrome browser? Google isn't spending millions/billions to drive out microsoft, they're just creating a very simple platform and allowing the world to take it down - they must have seen the success of Linux and...
