Holding my longs didn't get a chance to get out and now the spread is ridiculous. Just holding all into Sun night, got an even chance of making $..off to work

Should get a margin call here I DON'T CARE. i can make it all back in 3 days! 3 days!

Spreads do not matter if you are already long, as you would be selling the bid anyway.


and here is a..........LOL for you.



Quote from college ruled:

Every one of my trades have been posted here right after I made them. 2K is 2K is real $ but not a million $. Be scared to death trading a mill $. One day i hope,... In two weeks i doubled this..up over 4K. Every trade posted here seconds after making them. What more do you want, and why?

I never one time said that you were not calling them live.

I did however say that you are not trading live with real money.


It doesnt matter anyway. I just find it odd that you would spend this much time trying to make everyone think that you are.

my assumption is the following, you are calling trades "live" in order to convince yourself that you can actually TRADE LIVE. You are PLANNING on using this conformation when you actually GO LIVE WITH REAL MONEY.

Emotions and the market will not allow you to actually do this though.

It is different live, you will see once/if you ever emotionally make it there.

Good luck on your shift tonight.
 
Quote from oldtime:

I'm in loss prevention mode

This is the part they don't tell you about when they show the Ferraris rich traders buy.

I'm maxed out tapped out and it is still moving against me.

Fortunately I also have some profits to take.

But unless God intervenens this will be my first losing month in about 10 months. Right now I'm up about 48% ytd, down from the high of 72%.

48% on the year is still good money

Collage kid.. if your legit.. keep it up.. you make for decent reading.. think a few of us like seeing an underdog rise up... although you could do without the hot head ;)

Long as you have control of yourself and can exit the market on a whim if it goes south.. stops dont become as important less you are away from a trade then bracketing comes in handy

Im not that good however on letting go.. i use stops just to keep my ass in line and not hold on when i shouldnt be... lot of this stuff comes down to just knowing yourself and your own limits that need accounted for and thats unique to everyone

I am fascinated by a trader's( and or demo trader's) psychology.

It is what makes the market a market.

If all traders could control their emotions then the market would be much harder to trade.

So i am intrigued on why you are trying to convince yourself that you can do this live by doing it on paper in public.

2k account

500k account

100mm account

It doesnt matter and it is all the same.

That is why i said if you cannot do it at 1c a pip then you will not be able to do it at 100 a pip or whatever.

If you actually spent the time and considered what i am saying i am trying to offer advice that you should adhere to, as it would be the best decision that you could make based on where you are at emotionally at this point.

BUT

You refuse to see this and acknowledge this CERTAIN FACT, and based on that i am done with this thread.

A shame really.
