D'ya know what mate just lately I'm starting to feel it and look it. Old mates of mine used to joke I had a portrait hidden in the attic, but lately I'm looking wiped out..corresponded with a new career FX trading..strange that..

 

[wackypete2]

I just leave it to my kids to make me feel old. They do a great job of it. My son turns 21 in august and he tells me once he's legal to drink (21 here) he knows he's getting old. arrrghhhh!!!

Peter

 

[forker]

I don't mind getting old,don't have a choice. I don't mind getting uglier, not that I was good looking to start with. It's the falling apart functionally that bugs me

 

[jimmc]

I'm with you all on that one.

Hey wackypete - don't think nobody's reading just because nobody's contributing. I'm working all day sadly and can only catch up in the evenings, but I love reading this thread and checking out the charts at the times of the calls.

gbpjpy 5m chart
looking for a drop to around 133.77. Might exit 1/2 there. We'll wait and see

Peter

 

[wackypete2]

We're getting lots of choppy action so I'm going to take whatever pips I can get.

Peter

 

[wackypete2]

exit eurusd 144.23 +6
exit gbpjpy 133.81 +9

 

[wackypete2]

euro just dropped to 144.15
Missed a few pips there but I wasn't liking the action so just being cautious and conservative with the few pips I had.

[wackypete2]

Interestingly, if you look at both charts I was trading it now seems if I stuck to my original plan I'd have done much better

eu retraced exactly to the upper channel line after the breakout that I faded, and gj went as low as 133.75 which was the area I posted I was looking at.

Nothing to cry about since I've developed a decent sense of what's happening during my trading career, but this goes to show how difficult it is to be a disciplined emotionless zen master when trading.
