Good point SSBob, I'll give that some serious thought, thanks.

To be fair, Sun 20:40:38 2010 EST The currency futures are Back online :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) Let's do it, do it, Do it NAOUGHW!

My, Interactive Brokers, Bulletin Board says; To Globex traders: Sun Nov 21 18:06:18 2010 EST Globex currency futures are currently unavailable for trading. :mad: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I've been waiting two hours...

I agree, it's a lot of work. Ninja Trader offers a host of analytics in their software, I found the MFE (maximum favorable excursion) & MAE (maximum adverse excursion) data to be most helpful when defining and refining my stop and target placement. I've used the same software for years, so I...

That is Funny

Pardon me cunparis, for chopping up your post, it's all good. Quiper Save your ca$h, turn on the Sim, I sense a lot of wisdom in cunparis's post. I have done every thing possible to make my trading career as difficult as it could be. The funny thing is, I had no idea I was doing it! It's...

Matcha OKAZAY, you're forgiven, but I still meant every word. :)

Matcha If that is profit (PnL:$154.00) something worked!! Cut yourself some slack my Dear, I guarantee you the B/O trade you don't take will be the runner. :mad: As long as you continue to protect yourself you'll be fine. Overtrading?? Are you forgetting the 15 & 20 trades per day at...

Matcha Good job sitting on your hands. You've learned not to try to pick bottoms, that's a good thing, nice scalp too. I sure would like to see you catch one of these "free falls." I know it's not your style but some daaayyys (gritting teeth),, sending in a sacrificial soldier on a pullback...

Matcha I love that 20 bar EMA :) Having that orange line between your stop :eek: and the price action must have been comforting at some level. Very nice analysis, you read the PA on that trade as if you were waving a magic wand and controlling the entire index. :p I also enjoyed the...

Matcha I agree with PO, "You have been pretty consistent with your stops." I'd say near perfect, I've never seen you let a trade get away from you, nor have I seen you give a trade a bit more breathing room. I believe as you become more confident with your method (as you are) your entry...

Forgive me for butchering your post :( Boli, as always it' all good. Matcha The notion of reactions at even and whole numbers was suggested before in this journal. I looked, but couldn't find the post. As I recall the poster suggested removing all the other price levels on the chart...

Nostradamus357 If the gestation period is 30 days and an average litter is 10 and selling at $5.00 / $6.00lb at 10 weeks at 5lb ea. I suggest you buy more $100.00 hutches:cool: and save yourself a warren of grief & frustration

:) Well said my dear, Let's keep Boli wrapped up in his fishnet stockings! :)

Senior Novice Welcome to ET :) Wow, that's quite a post! I congratulate you on surviving since 2007, good job. You offer many opportunities for inclined traders to offer suggestions to enhance your trading experience. I am truly surprised at the lack of response to your thread. I read your...

Matcha Coffee run.... sounds good. It's to bad your trade missed it's target by a few ticks :( I was wondering if your platform supports a trailing stop? If it does you may find it helpful for "coffee run" types of trades.

Tlow, Lots of earnings news and global currency "shake ups" lately. Trying to keep up with all that is nearly impossible. I think you do more "right" than "wrong." Keep your focus on what you're doing right and the wrongs will soon fade away. Be nice to yourself :)

Matcha, For the past couple of days it appears you've been changing things up again. Maybe you're suffering from paralysis of over analysis, LOL. You mentioned earlier that Boli's charts looked like "colorful fishnet stockings". Yours on the other hand remind me of a very skimpy string...

Matcha, That chart looks like an Elektrokardiogramm of a heart attack victim. A bit of a pulse at the open and then, flat lined. The bond market was closed today for Columbus Day and that led to quiet trading and tight ranges. Your style of trading appears to need a little more...

Tlow, Ever since 9-21 or 9-22 when you had your -$350.00 day, and then the next day when you couldn't or wouldn't post your chart or stats you've changed. I really wanted to "call you out" about not posting that day, but I (thought I) let it go. Also prior to those couple of days you...
