Read 'em and weep

Matcha, Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. Just post us a (broomstick) copy of your blownout trading account and I'm sure that will prove, to all of us, you're well on your way to trading success. What a load of crap, talk about, "getting real". By the time I finished...

tlow My method of trading is a lot more mechanical than yours, I believe PA trading requires a lot of user discretion, I may be wrong about this, since I don't partake of the sacrament. My system is devised of a collection of indicators, I keep a report each day of the percentage of winning...

Matcha You're doing many things right, your discipline alone is more valuable than profits right now. Your method of trading is evolving nicely, IMO. Stick with it and continue to hone your skills. As you become more comfortable with the risk involved and with your method, you will begin to...

I sense a little study in you future. http://www.amazon.com/Gerald-Appel/e/B001ILKGMC/ref=sr_tc_img_2_0?qid=1291204739&sr=1-2-ent

Maybe it's just your choice of words, but no, I don't "worry about stats on a daily basis". I know when I'm off my game, and I just shut down and walk away. I suggest you stay focused on developing your method of trading and your psychology as a trader. I guarantee you, if you develop a sound...

I was wondering if you resolved your Charting problem?

I really don't think luck has much to do with it! 3 for 3, that takes discipline and skill, very well done. :)

I would try shifting the chart to the right, and forgetting about it! Then, when the market opens again and data begins to flow, it will probably look similar last weekend ..... on your chart. Maybe someone will recognize your software....and know how to use it! You may find this link...

Easy Darling, I'd hate to see you tarnish your ET reputation over a skid in the oil futures. :eek: frank8800 I've been reading your journal as of late, and I must say, you've attracted the creme de la creme of the ET oil traders to your trading room :). Breathe it all in my friend...

Xspurt Thanks for a great topic. Being a self centered pennyless man, paying for training or purchasing a black box was out of the question for me. Fortunately, I took to TA like a fish to water. I realized I needed a method of trading that was mostly mechanical to fit my personality...

"Clothes maketh the man", my mother often said. So it was inevitable, that one day I would meet, a well dressed idiot!

When exactly did you try to plot volume chart of EUR & GBP using FXCM data feed (date and time)? Please post a chart. When exactly did you try to plot tick charts (date and time)? Please post a chart. Please post a chart showing, "I use volume & tick charts for futures like ES, YM, NQ, Tf...

You know you're getting old when you go to your daughter's house for a holiday meal and don't have to do all the preparations yourself (wife and I). It's very nice, :) just eat and get fat! I wanted to clarify an important distinction between NoDoji's extensive trade by trade (bar by bar)...

Since T Day is a U.S. Holiday,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, :confused: Try checking out the thread you started on 10-17-10. >> Forex Trading >> Daytrading Equity vs FOREX? bstay, took the time to respond to you with a most informative post on this subject.:confused

I think we've all either been there or were damn close. If your a trader, you'll find a way. A lot of good stuff in this thread, take what you want. I was given a "Commodities Traders Prayer" many years ago, it's still on my desk. (use any Higher Power yo choose) Keep me humble in my...

Matcha That's a very informative recap of yesterday's entry method. I agree with PO, yesterday was a good example of keeping losses small and winning big. Tuesdays' trades were just as "well read". When I trade around whole numbers I respect them (take profits or enter) until prices prove...

Getting paid for sleeping, it doesn't any better than that!

Well done, NeveralOne http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nAmQLWq7QRI/SgkACId0qhI/AAAAAAAADRM/bMyBvsIppsA/s400/sleepy03.gif
