F,
Thanks for the advice re live etc. In the last 4 weeks alone on day trade DAX scalps, (not long term/options positions which is extra) I am up mid 5 figures. I won't feed the trolls or go all DJ and send strangers statements but I think you can be assured I will be fine. I believe I am ahead 4 figs on the trades I made cribbing from here, so you owe me nothing, which you would also do had I never traded from here. You put a lot of information and time out here and it's for me to decide.
As for NVP, appreciate the comment. However, I have followed reasonably well, if not always writing and if you believed it was all tosh I guess you wouldn't spend so much time here. I would not hope to emulate MM's success, if I get part way that is fine.
If Dax goes completely mad, as it is prone to, then my focus will be there mainly. I suspect after a few fun days Dax will start to get in to summer mode and I will then focus more on fx.
As for my own psyche, I believe if I was not on for real dough, then I would not commit fully or take it as seriously and it would be pointless for me to try. I won't go completely nuts but if I can get a few plus days and see Friday night in as a winner (no matter the size) then great. If not then I can take a look at what I did wrong.
Again I have no wish to wake up the nutters but I read what NVP wrote recently, can't recall exactly but the gist was on day trading the ability to scale up is enormous. Same as I do on Dax, if I get a couple of winners in a row stakes go up incrementally till I am wrong and can push on to make a good day great. Then next day start back at usual stakes. No point mentioning percentages either as that will rattle the cages too. I do believe percentages is a bit misleading as when I trade I know I am 2 clicks from a refill should it go wrong so it is not a completely true number anyway.
This time next year Del boy.......
