anyone confident enough to post live 10 winning trades in a row?

Serious?
I should jump up and down, high-fiving my self for such a great loss?

You should accept them, NOT enjoy them.

When a losing trade happens, and you lose just 6 ticks as it goes against your initial entry much further, it really is a good feeling to see how your risk is well controlled.

In other words, correct losing trade is a good thing, it protects your account. It may not be cool being a loss, but one should be happy about the correct management of that trade.

Incorrect losing trade, on the other side, is of course not something to be happy about and should be avoided.
 
but its obviously very easy if you are going for small wins and trading without a stop. Agreed?

No I don't agree until you demonstrate.

what, 10 winning trades?
how about 32 winning trades? (attatched)
Doesn't mean anything, though. Im an aweful trader. Just 'trade' for the enjoyment, like people who bet on the horses for entertainment.

And again. Im on a run of 41 winners in a row at the moment. (can only fit about 35 on the screen though...?.....)
Do you now see that it is easy to get lots of winners in a row. Meaningless even , without taking other risk information into context?

Anyway, if I can get this little account upto £500 im gonna give it to a young relative of mine who's only about 12, but reckons trading looks 'super easy' (despite watching me lose) whenever he sees me messing about with the market, lol.
Thought it might make a funny journal to watch him lose my money for me! haha

I have actually a record of 17 continuous winning trades making 6110$ in 21 days, but this hardly ,matters as long as you don't put proper money management into you'r trading. you could actually louse more than 50% of this amount in a bad spike day....

If you lose more than 50% your sure are a louse. I agree.
That's some louse'y trading there.

Also I never use a stop loss. Found out in the beginning that was what was killing me. My trades always came back around and the stop loss was taking me out before the market turned around. I am getting close to 80 trades with no loss now. One trade took 10 days to turn around but swap much easier to take than a stop loss.

I not like losts. Sometime if looses two bad, I lose my bowels, then I feel like looser.

If my two tight is belt, I take off then trowsers are loser.

A stop LOOSE, if you please. Correct spleling is important much.

Your stop LOOSE wasn't killing you, it was saving you. You just might not realise it yet.
 
If a sufficient number of people spell the word as "lse", then we can claim that everybody is spelling it right on average. It may be tricky getting the balance just right though.
 
who cares about 10 winning trades.......I care to look at my results for the end on the month....I'm sure I've had both 10 winning and 10 losing trades in a row. I plan my trade and trade plan. I would say it is tuff not to alter a plan after your 10 losing trades ,... I usuall wait till 20 losing trades in a row to tweak my plan.

This makes no sense. :?:

Hold onto a trade long enough until it wins, is that the plan?

A better plan would be to wait for the rebound and then enter the trade with a stop loss.

80 trades with no loss because the losers have not yet been closed?
