Leo whats the line where you arrows are

[I'll give you a hint, it is drawn from the top left beginning to the first arrow. The rest is extension. ]

 

[Lord Flasheart]

leo what work do you do along side this

[Mr Flibble]

Are you a true football fan Flibble or armchair?
what do you understand about AFC Wimbledon?
Do you trade live?

What do I understand about AFC Wimbledon? I was at plough lane sat behind a big pillar only to see John Fashanu use the Forest defenders like a stepladder the whole match. I'm a Nottingham Forest fan since the age of 7. Its impossible to be an armchair supporter of a team like that. I do support all English teams in Europe especially against cheats/bad losers = Valencia 😉

Just got stopped out of my EUR?USD trade oh well its been fun. Saw some big moves in the market few minutes ago but I cannot put my finger on why? Any ideas?

 

[Lord Flasheart]

looking for 50+ from this trade,hoping its high for day

You need just a few trades to make a living from trading. I am not going to chase the market anymore. I've used from tick charts, 30secs charts all the way to weekly charts. It makes more sense to trade 10-20 trades in a month and still end up the same pips. In the long run, it is more economical (in all aspects not only in commissions but also in human efforts) to reduce the number of trades.

Its funny I thought this forum was full of fulltime traders but now I see that isn't the case who here trades fulltime?

I've been fulltime since March 2009.

Mind you, not many fulltimers hang around on forum sites. Even if they do, very few of them talk about their trades.

how could you think that,most people on here dont even trade at all. Something like 50% register and never post. There are probably about 50 f/t traders at a guess. I used to be fulltime but lost too much so I quit.I Came back and work part time,it makes me appreciate the value of money more. Ive only had three losing months in about 18 since coming back. I was asking as I want to be based at home and do something along side this instead of what I do now

Been trading FX full time from home for 9 months, since taking voluntary redundancy. Traded FTSE individual stocks part time for two years prior to that, I'm still about £10K down from where I first started, but have gone from losing weeks, to break even weeks and am now starting to see some profitable weeks...

I seem to have a really good run and then let one stupid trade get wildly out of hand and bingo back to square one, if I could just deal with those rogue trades. Take the other night, trying to fade a news spike, against the predominant trend, whilst the market is making fresh lows (no established support to buy against) whilst I already have risk exposure on a correlated market, I mean when you stop and analyse it, WTF was I doing?

It's a long winding road to consistent profitably and anyone who thinks this is easy money is an idiot.
