i guess i know that demon ... maybe you should at least add a maximum daily loss to your trading plan. and on a bad day - before this demon gets you again - you remember your plan and quit for the day (and take a cold shower for example). good luck!

so you really think an election system that makes it possible that somebody can become the president with a minority of votes is working very well? what kind of democracy is this? the democracy of the greatest nation ever? what kind of human being does one have to be by accepting being the...

let me tell you that the weirdest thing is your electoral system. it's good to have traditions (perhaps) - but if one can become the pres with a minority of votes - and a supreme court is needed to find a solution - it's somehow unbelievable.

i thought it was just another short cover day.

you could call it noise - or you could call it more details. depending on ones style - there are entry points on the 1 min. chart that a 5 min. charts simply doesn't show. so you could also say why trade with a 5 min. chart if i can have a 1 min. chart. again - it's a matter of style and...
