    Is this what trading is like?

    I've been taking gains and staying out while expecting a pullback. I sold eurusd at 1.17830... It has since gone back up to 1.17985. Not saying this is a perfect strategy. In fact, I'm basically guaranteeing that it's NOT a perfect strategy... But it's the best I have right now.

    1. I only put an amount into my account that I could "afford to lose." 2. I require high leverage to match the 100%+ annual ROI I can achieve elsewhere. You can try to micro-analyze every word I say, but at the end of the day.... Are you actually offering up any useful advice? Do you have any...

    I need lots of leverage to match what I can make elsewhere. Otherwise there's no point. Individual stocks wouldn't work. Unless you're talking about options on them.

    Is this what trading is like?

    Can I assume this is something you don't do successfully? For such a moron, I'm up 24%. Another account? When was the first one. I have much more reliable ways of achieving a great ROI with practically 0% chance of losing money. Anyone can see that there is a lot of unpredictability with...

    bull trend might be taking a break?

    That didn't count cause it was reaction to Covid. It bounced right back. The fact remains that PE ratio over 1000 is unhealthy.

    bull trend might be taking a break?

    It will happen within 12 months. TSLA pe ratio over 1000. Lol. Warren Buffett once said a healthy PE ratio is 13.3.

    Is this what trading is like?

    Ok. Got any specific advice on running it like a business? Any of the previously mentioned strategies for limiting risk would not work for me... At least I don't think so. But I'm willing to change my mind if I'm wrong. Btw, my account is now up 24% since March 9th. And I closed out the trade...

    Is this what trading is like?

    In order to think I was wrong... I would need to have other economists agree with that. I would need to read analysts opinions on sites such as FxStreet, DailyFX, etc. It would require some new news or data release that changed the entire outlook.

    Oil seems too unpredictable to me. I have no idea what OPEC is going to do. I do know that the price of oil would drop significantly without OPEC keeping supply artificially low. But I have no control over their actions or any way to predict them.
