    Going through personal crisis & trading

    Pabst, Cutten, and everyone else, I appreciate all the advice and offer of help. My friend and families have been pretty good at helping me through this. I'm going to try and stop trading completely at least for 3 weeks. The last thing I need is to worry about what the market will do...

    Going through personal crisis & trading

    Yes. I don't normally justify a bad trade but i did with the 2 largest losers i've had in months. It's almost like telling the market "do your worst" to me. i've become numb to losses almost. I know it hurts but it almost seemed like I didn't care. Cutting back on my trading today allowed...

    Going through personal crisis & trading

    Thanks for the advice guys, I've started to significantly cut back on my trades and taking longer breaks in between. Normally 50-60 trades have been cut back to about 5 trades today so far.

    Hey, Sky. No. I'd rather not talk about the actual problem but it has nothing to do with lawyers for sure.

    Going through personal crisis & trading

    thanks guys. The crisis I'm talking about is not a string of losses, I've been doing quite well in the market all year until about 2 weeks ago when things start to unravel. My account has experienced a 10% drawdown since then. And I'm starting to feel like "fuck it" to losses when I normally...

    Going through personal crisis & trading

    Has anyone here gone through a major crisis and yet continued to trade through it? How was your performance? I've been going through one myself in the past 2 weeks and I don't see any end in sight and it's really affected my trading. I'm in full defensive mode now when I trade. I'm thinking...

    spy's up over 1% AH, sling shot tail formation today

    I'll probably open Sunday night down about 2k+ if I'm lucky since I'm also short ER2. Which means, it'll take me all day or until Tuesday to make up the 2k depending on how things go. FNM gave me about $1200 after hours and I'm going long USDJPY when market opens - massive hammer formed...

    spy's up over 1% AH, sling shot tail formation today

    Not for me. I shorted 3 ES into close at 1241... from the looks of it, it'll open at 1255-1257. I'm gonna need plenty of vaseline on Monday. FNM better drop to zero.
