I'm a noob, but I think 100 ticks per week is a fine goal. A person who can sustain that for 20 years can make a metric shitload.

No, got in at .53 on the break of the descending triangle, out at .06 (for lack of balls), then watched the price fly down as I was entering a buy stop at .91.

Yeesh, I got the first leg but missed the second (too busy over-thinking to enter). Here's to the third . . .

That Big Hog's a wise mofo. :) Still on the sidelines, looks like I may be here a while.

chop suey here . . . I'm looking for a long

But the reversal is also showing signs of a reversal . . . I'm gonna chill for a bit here.

It looked to me like a little upness was in the offing at 106.06, so I entered long . . . and got scared of the early choppiness, so I exited at 106.26. Yeesh almighty. Anyone have a pair of balls I can borrow? NoDoji, you have balls enough for two, help a brother out. :)

On the third hand, what the hell do I know (as the support no longer looks all that supporty)?

OK folks, what're we doing now? Anyone believe the double bottom at 110.56, or are we still looking for places to short? ADD: Earlier I was looking to short again at .18 or .47 for a break to more downside, not so sure now, support is looking pretty supporty. I may just play the range or...

Interesting point--thanks.

:D That's what I'm thinking this morning too--I've had my best day yet so far. But I'm also kinda worried that this is what it takes for me to make a shitload--a very clear-defined trend pulling back on solid resistance followed by a straight drop. I can't build a career on making a...

Man, I need to figure out how to let my profits run. I think I've got a good entry and stop placement technique (after much struggle and consternation), but I keep settling for peanuts). Some of this may be residual tick-grabbing tendency from the last few days of choppiness.

So is it breaking through 111.90 or not? Place your bets. ADD: My WAG is we see 47 or even 18 and then another go at 90, but what the hell do I know?

Nice, NoDoji. I closed my short in that same range but didn't mentally get all the way to putting a long on. :|

short .36, stop .42 Add: scratched it--going to sit and think for a bit, worried about huge slippage on the stop

I think this guy may be "Tuff Fish" of online poker video fame--his voice is exactly the same. The Tuff Fish videos (available on youtube) are hilarious--basically he's the worst online poker player ever, he does stupid stuff and gets frustrated quite hilariously. ETA: Here's an example...

NoDoji's posts have been very helpful for me, so I don't really care whether the results she posts are 100% true and accurate or not. Her reported results don't change the fact that she's helped me understand the market.

guess not

Really looks to me like it wants to sell off.

Yeah, if there was a way to make money by calling market direction while not fussing around with actual order entry etc., I'd be rich as shit right now (ooh--signal service? :D). The details are killing me (i.e., stop placement, movement, general trade management). But I'm taking comfort in...
