I didnt sell oil at 112 or 120... lol
I started selling oil on that day it spiked up $10s (back then that was huge and biigest 1day rise ever i think), it had started the day around $128, i dropped my sells in at $137!
Next day it crashed back to the low 130s, although i had bailed out way way before that low, as it was my 1st oil trade ever. lol
I did abit more selling back from the 139 level to the 146s, but was at college fulltime back then so couldnt trade during the days, and ha just lost my fiance so wasnt in a proper mindset to do aything cos all the alcohol i as drinking all throughout the day.
I remember back then though, every day i kept posting in my journal on t2w about how oil was about to crash and that the dollar was gna start to get strong again, but no-one else listened to me back then.
I especially remeber that old fool fxscalper ranting on about how when ecb raised rates the euro was gna smash throiugh 1.6000 and how oil was gna smash through 150 and keep going tthough te 160s t 180s+!!
What a fucking idot... LOL
If you read through my t2w journal you will see all the times how i kept saying to him and everyone else that oil wa sgna crash becasue people simply couldnt afford this high oil!!
I spelt it out to him so fucking clearly, kept saying and posting that oil was gna crash because people couldnt afford those prices, and you couldnt sell something at a price that peole just cant afford to pay for it.
(This was before the term ''demmand destruction'' had even been invented, everyone else was shouting $200 oil, but i was the 1 who foresaw the demmand dertuction coming and so traded accordingly!)
And i remember the reply he gave that really showed me what a complete retard the guy is, he said ''traders dont care if people can afford the oil or not''! :eek:
(Just like i had told him that if he was really a millionaire like he claims to be to buy oil the day it went to $105, but he didnt, and missed out! lol)
But enough about him, your the latest one to try predicting and forecasting that im just a gambler and going to lose money in my trades, so by default not make money.....
Hmmmmmmmmmm, how many other people all predicted that back right from the start of the year and all spring and easter?? LOL
You know i seriously would actually really really love it of that was true mate!!
I mean fuk all the effort of trading...,
imagine if you could be earning 100%+ profit per month, every month, by just randomly gambling away on a daily basis, and yet be earning loads of cash everyday by just doing that!
Itd be fuking brilliant to be an expert consistently profitable gambler! lol
But sadly im not an expert gambler.
I dont gamble cos i dont like having the risk of losing my money.
And to go from £759 starting capital to over £18,000 profit in under 4months, trading only at £1 t £2 per tick until the last 2weeks, and to not just have 1 big lucky win day after 100s losses, but to be hitting 5% - 10% profit per day, every day, day after day, for every single day of every week for all those weeks and week....,
It takes alot more than 'lucky gambling'!!
Especially in the financial situation that i was and am still in, that if i lost my capital thatd have been it, id have been homeless.
No money in a bank or savings account as security to fall back on,
if i fuck up trading i wouldnt have just lost my capital, id have lost my whole life and future and would have been living rough on the streets of London.
No-one else on these trading sites does actually understand how that feels, since you have all been fortunate enough to have been given the chance to have salaried jobs and only started trading when you had enough savings..,
didnt have to start trading to stop yourself starving but having no money in you bank to go down to sainsburys!! :/
But i can tell you now that when you have that much pressure on you constantly everyday you dont 'gamble randomly'.
