Comprehensive strategy which shows you where the market is going next and provides your buy and sell triggers. What you appear to be doing is either entering late when the move is over, forcing you to bail on your position at a loss, or you are entering ahead of a retracement which although...

It isn't for you. Go and do something else. It can be done but it appears you are not suitable. The market isn't a democracy and some are "more equal" than others. (no arguments please - I've had enough of that with the idiot on the other thread who continued gambling after slagging me off...

Everything you write above is completely correct of course. You are making a stellar effort but you are trying to make water run uphill. They don't want to hear it. Recent example - the abuse I took when I had the audacity to suggest that a novice trader who puts up losses every other day...

Is there really any moral difference between occupying land or a building without the consent of the owner and occupying a vagina without the consent of the owner? It sounds like these people are all getting exactly what they deserve. If one denies liberty, property rights, and personal...

See it all now. If I tell them they can't create success by guessing they won't listen to me, but to those who tell them success if just around the corner if only they persist. This is the cosy reassurance that everyone wants. To learn to become stubborn and closed minded is the goal, ignoring...

I am pleased to note that clmarathon has taken some good advice and has chosen not to trade today. I would have been disappointed to read that he had been induced to go short today and stopped out numerous times for a net loss. Hi NoD, In each case if you go to your 1 minute chart I have...

Instead of buy low, stoploss lower ; sell high, stoploss higher ; enter - panic and get out for a wash - one could replace with calm methodical trading to take net gains from the session. How about, setting a range of 15 points from the high or low as the "optimum" range for this market, and...

Since the dipshits most likely have me on ignore for the time being, I'm going to post a prediction of some places where I think CLM will have traded today. Lets hope he is on time with his results so we can see if it was accurate. How to evaluate my guesses? Well I'm having five goes, I'd...

Short 1.421. Target 60 points.

This is morbidly horrifying. First you all love bomb the guy so he doesn't feel like an idiot for jacking away his money without having a clue, and now you invite him into your little circle so that instead of doing the work he needs to do in isolation his mind is polluted with other peoples...

La la la, fingers in my ears, I'm not listening. Please do continue with your journal though - I could use some light relief from time to time. And good luck with your trading!

That is contradictory to your stated purpose of trading live to make money. This comment borders on delusional. Here is a summary of your trading in terms of what I consider acceptable trades: Day 1: 1 out of 4 executions Day 2: 0 out of 4 executions Day 3: 0 out of 2 executions Day...

Yes, you will keep repeating this outcome for as long as you choose to engage in the same behaviours. Once again someone who will not learn, who refuses to be taught, and who takes comfort in the opinions of those who also do not know what they are doing. Once again your trades today, whether...

Tonkadad, thank you for your reply. If we are not precise in what we describe, how can we be sure that we understand? For sure, according to our own abilities and experiences we can judge (with various degrees of accuracy depending on the individual) where we should be trading. However, when...

Nowhere near as tough as the proposition of sorting out who has the correct raw materials to become a trader and who does not. First question - if you want to be a trader, why are you doing an MBA?

NoDoji, If you are going to contribute to this discussion perhaps it would be useful to hear what you describe when using the term "indecision". Thanks in anticipation.

You are apparently trading live. If so, why? What is your objective in trading? Why have you chosen to specialise in this particular instrument? If you would like my input on your trading strategy, please describe it. Please also describe the reasoning behind each one of the trades...

This is blatant nonsense and dangerous advice I am sorry to have to tell you. I have reviewed your charts and can tell from the trades marked that you do not have a consistently accurate trading methodology in place and therefore should not be live trading with the expectation of anything...

Spanish claims to have made those returns but also claims to have blown up. He also claims to have started trading around 5 years ago if I remember. Making $35k and blowing it up is not unusual in this industry and does not qualify him as an expert. Arguments about tight stops - the truth is...
