its not about guts my friend.......
attempt to devise a mechanical system and follow it religiously, and then emotions will not affect your trading
guts / balls = emotion
always remember that?
take care my friend

I know, I'm still new to this! But with the GDP news at 9.30, I don't think I have enough experience to trade. Part of me says that yesterday's talk of a lengthened recession into 2010 will have priced in bad news, but part of me expects the FTSE to drop.

ffs. the computer chose this moment to download some essential upgrade that not only hogged the machine but forced a restart. which means i couldn't manage the trade. good job the stop was at b/e.
now i have permission to go long on a retrace as long as 3841 holds

I had exactly the same thing happen to me. I blame it all on Gates.....
Morning guys.
I managed to seek out and take 15 points out of the bounce on 3840 at about 8:50 this morning, so happy about that. 'Computer issues' meant I didn't get in till 3850, but at least it's a few points in the bag.
Thanks for the e-mail Wallstreet. I think it's really important to see just where all these lines of S+R are....

normally first target i would look for the 50% retrace of the previous big move which would have been 3837ish.
lets see what happens with the 3882 top and the 3900.
