Money management should be at or near the top of your list. I would say it is the most important part. Even more so if you are posting losses, real or otherwise. Having a clear money plan will allow you to stay in the game much longer. I don't know how many different ways to say it.:(

That's quite enough! Good trades.

Suddenly,I like the guy.:D

Still trying to export a screenshot using openoffice. I suck at that stuff.

Oanda.

I started this trade Friday morning, around 5:30 am eastern time. I was half-asleep. I would never have stayed in that trade on a full size lot. I am still trading 100 units, I put in a huge stop. Completely foolhardy. Not the way I'm comfortable trading, but the news I gathered on Friday led...

I'm short EUR/USD at 1.2514. Unusual for me to hold a position like this.

S&P futures is limit down. What did you guys do while I was asleep?

60 pip drop. WTF was that? I love shorts, and here I was typing like some clown:mad: 9:58 Whoops, forget that "love shorts" comment, Reaver:D

My 2 cents. When the US market (NYSE etc.) leads up to it's close, it's the only market open. If someone were scalping, it would seem to be something to pay attention to. If you were long-term, I would guess wider stops at that time? Gringinho makes many references to US RTH. Although...

Ummm....... OK. Is it ok to laugh at that?

Actually I'm on the E/U, not the U/J. I had set a trendline on a 5 and 1 min from the (roughly) 6:00 to 8:30 eastern candles, shorting on the drops. 3 trades, up 12 pips. 9:24 Plus 3, looking for a reversal, Gringinho taught me the edit trick on my posts.

USD/JPY. I mat have read this on another post, but volatility seems tobe the norm. 20 minutes of 5 pip sideways, then 20 pip stabs. Pretty crazy. I have lost my typing ability, I am not sure what to,make of this, Wide stops? Longer time frames? Sharpen scalping skills? Made 2 trades...

7:54 pm eastern. Pretty quiet for the last 20 minutes. Asian open coming.

Try uninstalling MacAfee, or however it's spelled? I have found many over-the-counter anti-v software to be major gas hogs.

Majors are bouncing on lows, again.

I would agree on the choppy conditions. I placed 1 trade in 24 hours.

It would seem so. I can see the direction, but the bounces are throwing me on the entries. I'll check back in the a.m.
