FxJake: Nice trading, and you are very patient! Some questions: 1. Who is your broker? 2. What size of lot do you trade (regular 100K lots?). 3. What size of account if you can share? 4. How about money management? 5. What is your average/typical holding period?

Yes! One of the reasons is that the guys will have another model in their heads. Most likely the person who apply it would have no opinion, not intelligent, has no skin in the game, and is detached. In other words, he does not care, and/or does not have the ability to care.

I meant actual stops not mental. Those should always be there. One way I think of rule 6 is that I become a harvester of stops. So if I sell stops dear I should make sure that I do not buy at a higher price.. The risk being that I could be harvesting right before a steamroller... A difficulty...

Illiquid: Do you remember Neke's trading approach vs. rule 6?:)

Could I give the honor of the first attempt to answer to another person including the OP before I chime in ? But I would not leave you empty handed particularly given your nice and polite request, so I would give something. My explanation also tell me that I should NOT trade with stop losses...

What do you think? Are you rooting for one side or the other? If I were the OP, I would also start a trading newsletter (the kind they send via emails). OP seems to know very well the average Joe Trader, and express things in words that I would think would resonate well with Joe Trader. He...

There is only one intelligence, which get developed and is seen in various skills in various field. The above classification of intelligence, and the inclusion of non-intelligence into intelligence, is bullshit to say the least. Probably the guy made that classification because it sells as...

does anyone know how to chart pairs on free charting sites such as stockcharts? Please give example.

He probably used to think exactly like you. Then he lost a lot in the market, and learned almost nothing useful to make him a winner. Then he realized that if he paid a fraction to someone to show him what worked it would have been less expensive and he would have knowledge in exchange...

I responded to your first post with respect while you erred on the wrong side. You repeated more than once, and I stayed silent so that you would understand and behave right. You did some improvement, but I want to warn you that if you continue with insults that I will meet you with a set of...

Do you want to know the why?

Actually if I did not dodge them, his f bombs were straight and strong. He seems to be well trained, and he helped me getting a training in dodging f bombs. :p

Are you a fan of Neke, or someone else I know under another handle? If I were Neke I would be proud of my fans who would be ready to be hurt to protect me. Tell me, why should I believe what you wrote: You gave no proof/justification. As for what I will know, I hope I will know more in...

You seem to have made an important decision! :) While waiting did you know that you can make some high probability trading which may become a profit center in your trading business?

Let me know if my previous did not clarify things a bit. And thank you for being polite-- it is with people like you in mind that I take the time to exchange views in here-- Also I will forgive those who liked me less. Cheers!

You have made a thoughtful post. You have captured the core of what I meant, in addition to some point below: 1. Before I make the points below, I thought to second the poster above and state that this post and the previous posts I made, are not an ill-intentioned critique of Neke. Maybe his...

You mis-understood what I wrote/meant. If others than you got the same understanding as you, and if they ask me to re-explain I would redo it-- otherwise your comment is an outlier.

Neke: I am disappointed. How could you lose this week and by that much? Maybe you do not know how to read the overall market or the end of a trend and emergence of new trends? In the absence of an explanation, I would start to think that you have no edge. PS: I know I was watching GRMN among...

We finally became friends? Have a good one my friend.

1. Sympathies for your loss. 2. It is actually 10 times as much as you think: 40K+ 10=50K. Then multiply by two because you could have been on the side of the guys who made from you that 50k. So your loss with opportunity + previous high is ONE HUNDRED K. 3. How much would have paid to...
