with enough money and time almost any trade will get on the positive side eventually. Unfortunately I do not have the luxury to do that now (I did few years ago and it worked very well, until it did not work anymore with the capital and time I had at the time) so I need to go at trading...

this position can only make sense on Monthly TF.

...and in the mean time it has reached 4329... so either a really bad trade or we are missing somethingo_O

Well, as you said to one of my fellow traders, you joined "The lesser few", but no matter, whether you do *L*** and *H*** or *H*** *L*** you still need to figure out how to do this in a controlled and low risk manner and only time (and experience) can help you do that:D

Yep, IE, that's the thing, we all know what we should do (***** and *****) but not all know how to do it and that is the tormenting question for many on this thread. People are (unnecessarily) losing sleep about this:D as it is all matter of time...

FV well summarized, but I think you may have missed one important point: T=M :sneaky:

Great question! my first answer was, yes of course, it is so easy to loose, but then it got me thinking. I need to think about this a bit more...

Illuminating! and scary! Though my problem comes more from the opposite side of the spectrum: Trauma. I have been through the meatgrinder of losing significant amount of money several times, I had reached a point where I could see the trade setup developing and did nothing but observing a very...

What I can say is that different birds sing different songs, but somehow all the songs seems to merge into a symphony and that can be confusing. However, once you learn to hear the songs as single entities and as a symphony at the same time, than you will be surprised by the possibilities...

Maybe it is because I studied biology, but I do not find what the cuckoo chick and the warbler do surprising, the instinct is a stereotyped behavior encoded in the genes and expressed (and selected over time) as any phenotype. What is surprising is how we human generally think we do not have...

that period of time before the sun shows itself, but when the great outdoors is already filled with beautiful sounds of nature. The birds that you hear are mainly males. They are doing what male birds do best, protecting/claiming their territory (money) and/or trying to attract a mate (fools).

So, markets are manipulated by big money, that is clear enough to anybody looking at any chart and using their brain, as if not price would be jumping up and down all the time (as it does, in fact when big money is not there). then, with all discussions about how the powerful have been...

Oh I know exactly why I did what I did: I went back to the old ways of trying to jump in front of a freight train hoping it would turn around, instead of just getting a lift.

Yep, but mostly, I did not get out and reversed when I KNEW I had to, that is what happen when you leave control out of the door:banghead::D

At the end of the day the search for the holy grail of trading is as fruitless as all the technical analysis. There is one sentence that has been repeated over and over again in this thread: "low risk entry". I wonder how many followers of this thread have been giving the right attention to...

So M3, here is my answer: I trade Forex, in particular EUR.USD, there are two main reasons why I do so: Experience, I have been trading forex for several years now and I am comfortable with it, I am getting to recognize most of the "tricks" and "traps" and avoid them I lost/spent most of my...
