Will have to see if it is just a lucky few trades or if I am slowly getting the required skill set.

So I am now break even on my trading efforts. 1.5 years of digging a deeper and deeper hole and now I have finally climbed out. Two swing trades reimbursed me for hundreds of small wins and small / big day trading losses. My last trade was on July 19th, it was closing the swing trade. I've now...

Im waiting to short 2833... depending on how it looks as we approach

What are your thoughts on the MACD?

Good luck this week. Hoping you can duplicate the success of last week...and not just jump to a brand new method again.

I like this quote but its basically the opposite of what you have been doing in your trade journal.

There is so much different music on there and not just english music either. On premium sound quality its really really good. Much better than listening from youtube.

Have you tried to compare the volume figures that your broker gives to another data feed? Say tradingview which you can get free charts from.... If you find that the volume is not consistent between the two feeds...would you still argue that it has any use?

I believe a visit to 2740 is possible and will be a good place to get long again.

Looks like a rising wedge is developing on the hourly. We reacted to the bottom and top trend lines now... Lets see which way it breaks out. So far happy to be flat.

Spot forex doesnt have accurate volume info as there is no central exchange to report the transactions. You might just be seeing the volume from your broker. If you want to study volume pull up the 6E futures and use accurate volume figures. Up to you... The way I am reading your charts, the...

So your volume is worthless as it means nothing.....

Is your volume futures based?

Nice trading...you are onto something now I think ;)

Exited my long here from Monday July 2nd. Exit price was 2815, entry 2709. Could be pre-mature but I dont feel comfortable being long here anymore. This was a gain of 106 points. Slowing of bullish momentum and us being at the first test of the Distribution that brought us down from End of...

Reading this book just for fun... so far so good. I did some digging on the author and it looks like he used to post here on ET back in the day. His handle was Lawrence Chan. Posted between 2002 and 2015.
