CL Redux

part of the 95% losing club here - been browsing this thread for a few days.

Will be posting my trades, if for no other reason than that im probably a good fade/contrarian indicator and might help some of you make extra money, lol.

I dont particularly believe TA/Charts can give anyone an edge, but im yet to find anything else that does either, so that's what im using to base my trades on.

good luck today

wow - stopped me out and then ralied 30 pips in my favour in about a minute

It happens. I (hope) i've learnt to accept it, part of trading.

You could try and go back in, but the move may be too quick.

If it's any consolation, i was whipped on that as well and am now down for the day!!!

hehe, oh dont worry, i've more than learnt to accept it. After consistenly losing you actually completely expect to get stopped and then have it reverse on you :cool:

As in my ealier post, you could all have made some nice points by fading me so far, lol.

Waiting for next trade now. Good luck
