He also said it's harder to hold onto your profits sometimes, than to make them. Don't want this to be one of those days! Remind self to keep the routine And oh yes, I used to go long over and over on these days too.

This concept is key to my being here. I had a sudden insight several months ago that even my written setups were based on just guessing.

Thanks for your running dialog Niko, it helps me too, and I'm sure others. edit: Gringo, I understand you are watching. I meant would you have stayed in or gotten out when the demand line was broken, in this particular moment?

are you still in your long Gringo?

Thanks Db, the focus is certainly good for me

now my SL is broken watching pyramiding, but rarely doing yet

top of the channel and top of the morning to you, Mr Bimmer!

I agree, the lack of contrast tires the eyes.

It's peculiar also that even tho minimalistic and simple, it's not easy. Don't be put off by it taking time to soak in. I'm still having "Aha's". Let me see if I can post an image better. eidt: Size is good, but it's still not as clear as the original. Hmmmmm.

Heroic has it, read the minimalism for trading freedom posts at the first. edit: and while freedom in many ways, perhaps including from fear, may be found here There is a quote from Justin Mamis: ..."relying on the assumption of responsibility rather than the laying off of the test on...

Certainly been there more often than like to say. but today dr's had me unconscious on the table for an hour or so, all went well and a friend drove me home. I'm wobbly physically but alert and not tired at all. So placed one trade (a long around 1:30 EST) and made enough to pay half of my...

Yesterday my brains just weren't working like usual. All the same, watching your comments was greatly helpful. Especially this one. It's like the layers on the onion... one more layer went down and the 'behavior' part made sense in a way it had not before. I could kind of see it...

I had drawn a line up from the 10:02 bar similar to the one you drew in at 10:10. When it was broken, was thinking possible continuation or double bottom off the prior broken line you refer to.

Thanks Niko, great advice

In the first 5 or 10 min after the open, sometimes I just don't make decisions fast enough... at least it seems that way. Other days, it just flows at the tip of my fingers.

All I have to do is wait for that idea to soak in! Not clear on if not waiting, not anticipating... If you are not waiting you are anticipating? assuming anticipating generally associated with overthinking

Let's see... On Niko's chart I missed his #1 trade, but entered on the next retrace. In his #2 circle I saw both the entry's marked but to late to trade them. So missed out today. I actually tried a re-entry short at the bottom of his #4 circle, and exited quickly. After that...

I have to leave for awhile now also... Db, just to check for when review, how many trades taken? Thanks

it's an adjustment to get used to bars, but it does help with this work.

unavoidable appt's for me today... have to go. Friday too interesting day tho so far.
