    Quitting Trading

    Instead of wasting your money trading. Take a small amount of it and spend it on a mentor. Try this guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSBhXBfd7bE It seems to me that you are so busy insisting to the market that it give you your point per day, that you have failed to pay attention to...

    Quitting Trading

    Right off the bat, I would hope you are checking the higher time frames to make sure that you want to be taking long trades. Secondly, going on the chart you posted (which is only giving me a limited picture of what happened leading up this period) you are trading a fairly choppy market here...

    Quitting Trading

    Could you post a chart (2 or 3 would be better) of a trade that you took, showing your entry and planned exit (or planned trailing stop strategy)

    Quitting Trading

    It might be worth while for the OP to post their methodology/system here along with money management rules. I for one would be willing to offer an explanation (if there is one) of why it is not working.

    Quitting Trading

    To the OP, you have received lots of advice here, some it good. From first impressions as already pointed out, your stops are too tight and therefore even your good trades are getting taken out prematurely. You are almost surely guaranteeing failure this way. There is a way you can trade...

    Why is the dollar getting stronger?

    It's shoudn't come as a surprise, there has been talk long overdue Usd bounce for a while now. Compared to other western currencies the FED (now at 2% interest rates) have little room for further cuts. Considering this, I think that the recent attempted breakout in Eur/Usd was an attractive...

    Risk

    Hi, I'm not implying that I only trade Eur/Usd. What I'm getting at is that whereas before I would go long Eur/Usd, Gbp/Usd and Aus/Usd (for example) at the same time if I got the setups, now if I have a trade in Gbp/Usd (for example) I will not take any trades in the Gbp or Usd crosses...

    Risk

    In the past I have taken setups occurring in correlated currencies, however recently I insist against this. For example, say I am in a trade Eur/Usd, now, for as long as I am in that trade I will NOT take any trades that are setting up in any of the Eur or Usd pairs. The way I see things...

    Will the 2008 election happen?

    If you didn't already know this have a listen: http://youtube.com/watch?v=K3dAnSMzUlo&feature=related There might just be an "emergency" before the elections which would effectively cancel them leaving Bush in power.

    Euro to 1.60!

    Trying to pick the top is suicide. The higher probability trade is to wait for a bearish signal (pattern) on the daily/weekly charts first. Right now this chart is about as bullish as they come. A low risk entry with a target around 1.64 area is the way to go until the charts say otherwise.

    Short EUR/JPY

    This is looking bullish to me. I have a target of just below 165. I'll be all over the 4 hour chart looking/waiting for a good entry.

    Euro to 1.60!

    Just by projection of the triangle that just broke I have 1.62 to 1.63 as a likely target. Personally I'm going for 1.62

    Former US State Governor Questions 9/11 Official Story

    I know I'm going to regret posting this. I'm not interested in joining in the flame session either. It's just that someone is repeatedly suggesting that "creep of metals" is the reason why wtc7 fell like it did is that is embarassing to someone who understands the physics of the event...

    Former US State Governor Questions 9/11 Official Story

    Ratboy, I admire your persistence. I once got onto a discussion about building 7 on ET and to be honest it got so boring, it degraded into insults going back and forward and even one poster resorting to faking my posts (which btw they admitted to later in the post). Rest assured that there are...
