for now... I removed the charts off my screens, so I don't get tempedNeed to re-evalutate strategies, but lack the time.
btw, I filled up the freed screen space with AUD, CHF, & CAD, against the USD. This should explain the increased forex activity.
It is interesting that trading the bund troubles you so much. You really should analyze why.
It's not forgiving... I think that's my problem. I mean, in SMI or ESTX50 many of the times I am wrong I can still get out breakeven or close to that. In GBL, I have to pay up to get out for every little mistake. After a while those small losses hurt me (mostly psychologically) and then I cannot cut the loss in a subsequent trade, and the big loss comes. You've seen it happening last week.
Anyway...fuck it. I am not here to fight with the Bund, but to make $$$.
It had become a running joke between me and my friends (& girlfriend):
"-- guess who took my money today?
-- The german Bund!"
Happier now.

You're right it's about the moolah.
Hm, but I doubt any market is forgiving.
They are all calling for it - sooner or later.
