Jas in hbca, i saw your post today and the reality is that the tables could very well be turned around. I think today just happened to be on of those days for me. If you see my post from 2 weeks back, you'll see my breakdown moment :( , after which i took some time to make changes. PM me if...

01/28: Today was one of those days where everything seemed to go my way. At a certain point, I even thought, that something wasn't right, but I still kept on taking money. I almost felt like a Pro (and believe me, I really am far from that point). To cut it short, I really do hope, that...

SD, I see what you are saying. However, I trade larger positions, so my risk tolerance isn't very high. Hence, whenever, I see some weakness that makes me uncomfortable, I'm out. I think your strategy of scaling down is something I may consider, but I am backtesting a method at present which...

Pic. 2: Trade 2: LONG: Entry: $47.94 Exit: $48.75 -$0.81 A really good trade that I got shaken out of. This is a constant problem I am having (long tails) and need help/solution with this issue. I tend to get frozen out of the remainder of the trade and due to lose stops have some...

Seems like I had a good break from trading and discovered some strange things. One thing was that, if day trading is the daily norm for you, than everyday life seems like a constant state of meditation. :) . However, I actually missed trading and so I armed myself with a little more knowledge...

Hi 4re, a couple of quick questions,1) what is your sell signal, 2) what gave you another buy signal? I am hoping to re-establish a position with SLV again (swing), but will wait to see some buying action. SM

Hi PTMTL, I have to agree with you on this. I was a little reluctant taking the break, but did so, as I felt I had made bad trades. In going back to my reading, I discovered that I had not been trading according to my plan. I have to be honest with myself, and as of now, I think I have a...

Hi 4re, this is what I suppose I am lacking. You waited for the trade to come to you..........and it did!. I got half filled (250) at $28.14, at which point SLV started to gain momentum. Hence, my other half never got filled. I had my stop at $28.63, just below the resistance, and was out...

Thanks for the support 4re. I see this as a minor bleep in my trading which needs to be corrected asap. I can still continue, but do not want my trading style to evolve negatively nor do I wish to take any longer than required (a stitch in time save nine). Before I started, I knew what...

Pop goes the weasel, goes the weasel goes POP!!! and sure enough, yesterday it popped!!!. Yesterday, reality knocked on my door. Yes, I came down from the clouds with a pretty shaky landing!!!:eek: :confused: :eek: My daily max. loses is $500, I hit -$376.85 and was just not happy with...

I've got my eye on this one. Thanks 4re.
