For the lulz. But it is a true story. Happening right now.

I can afford this months rent, but after that it's hammer-time. So I've got to make about 800 (rent is not quite that much, but I reckon I'm going to need to eat as well) in the next month or so or I get kicked out.

So that's about 27% or there abouts the account needs to be increased by this month.

I'll worry about the month after that when I get to it.
 
Hey, if anyone wants to post any potential trades, go for it. I'll trade anything. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock. lol
 
Oh, and there is definitely a chance I'll be looking for a job in a month or two so if anyone knows someone who knows someone etc then I'm all ears. Hell, I'll even work for free if there is somewhere to stay and I get fed - should allow me to carry on along the trading path.
 
G/u

Waiting for something on this.

Could get 1/2 the rent or more on this alone if there is a decent breakout.

You don't need to eat for month. Perhaps a good time for a religious fast...lent is coming up after all :)
 
Sweet! Never thought about that.

Right, only need to make about 600 or so.

Onwards!!
 
27% is pretty steep for one week buddy. A month sure, but a week?! :)

Wish you the best of luck though

Perhaps a bounce or breakdown.

Dax

60-min Dax.

Potentially explosive.

lol, Thats what i was thinking. That guy cracked me up. Governement paying his rent and giving him dole money, whilst he's making a few k per week trading oil with no stops! :LOL:

There was some sort of lock-and-trigger or something with his trades.

And his knocked-off ebay stuff. lol
 
Bomb,
go long on Cable at 662, stop at 645 and hope for the best. You can lose only 17 pips.

PS eventually it'll break one way or the other

Well, it can break both ways.

Would have worked out though. Ha-haa

Cheers bedsit.

No problem,

Out +65 pips. I was OK with risking 17 pips (it was quite a speculative trade). No certainty in trading.

IMO you should try to find a job. You shouldn't risk more than you can afford to lose.

Best of luck:)
