Hello Jupiter, I must confess that haven't read the famous book. So, I don't know what the author meant by the term. In my personal view, I think the "intuition" is either a sort of magic clairvoyance, or more or less exactly what you wrote: ...

Hello DBrown, Those are good posts to remind where we have been and actually are. I always start my mission analysis with Daily charts and economic calendar. Importantly, as regards the "full force" term, to me it's a size which is still manageable ...

Hello CookieMonsta, Thank you for your kind question. As far as I am concerned, I have never risked 30% of my funds allocated for trading (DD). It is not percentage of my single trading account, as I described yesterday. My individual threshold is ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

To specify my comments: Trading account size = accepted risk / DD; no legal commitments if a loss exceeds the trading account size. Your DD is your pain threshold or calculated risk you accept in case of... (2% of money allocated for trading, 3%, ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Hello CookieMonsta, If you ask me. I don't control volatility and am unable to do so. I do control my positions sizes and apply them in accordance with a flowing volatility and my ability to read tape/ charts. Best regards, Exnav

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Thank you. As a retailer, I can only (and must) control my risk (SIZE, DD) given that is provided by the Market (broker's platform). The gap I mentioned, when price within seconds is placed (moved, opened) very far from opened positions and whatever ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Hello CookieMonsta, It's worthy of appreciation. We might know that there is no secret. Have a trading account size corresponding to your pain threshold (= accepted DD risk) provided your broker cannot legally demand losses exceeding the account ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Hello Cindy, Thank you for the point has drawn my attention. However, if only the CAP is considered, there is still a concept of an ant work. The Ant alone (uncapitalized retailer) is unable to raise the size of a bull or bear load (banker). Should ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Hello Phil, Thank you for the warning. I think one of my rules must be: "Be always careful once switched on the trading platform" Then, totally agreeing with your point, to me, I should stick to the "no rule" in accordance with AoW whereas Fti's ...

MY Journal-phil13

Hello Phil, Thank you very much for the pictures and your elaboration. I am of opinion that I must learn and learn as long as I am alive. I have never tried the G/T and will take a closer look at what the Beast is alike as well as my broker's ...

Hello Phil, Your discussion with Alexandria is interesting since you should know at least some of the UK clue - what is the h... going on? For those who got married with GBP pairs it's even of more intrigue. All the trading is rather a kind of ...

Congratulations, a thing likewise occurred with Cable yesterday but PA was a bit less pips upthrusts. It's all when London hands over to the US. I was "in" both yesterday and today. It's over for this week. Have a nice week-end. Exnav

Hello CookieMonsta, I'm sorry to still hover. Whatever success I ever got in my life has always been based on a calculated risk and diligence, many times even going for "all in". For some it might be more pragmatic exercising the way "One ...

Hello CookieMonsta, You're right. And, actually, thanks a lot for raising the point. As I'm in my own shoes, regarding the trading, TBH, I don't seek to discover any secret or become a great man or hero... I'm trading until there's any motivation to ...

(binned per thread starter’s request) CookieMonsta's Journey Into

Hello CookieMonsta, So much in the video you posted. And my grandmother used to tell me that "you cannot have all money". John R. Hill touched up the point "A speculator who dies rich dies before his time." Fti said "Judge not the past errors. Learn ...

Another my weakness: I don't know robots nor computers/ IT and prefer moving pairs. EUR seems dormant the 3rd day, until this afternoon, maybe. I'm sorry to intervene, though.

It's just not going to happen...

Thank you. That's right, we never have an absolute power position. Since I don't have stops marked at a predefined price nor unlimited resources, will exercise a prudent and less aggressive approach. NFP plus Friday must make a happy week-end for ...

Today is an action play as there's EURO news on the horizon. You're right and it will be another day to feed the Sharks. For them, don't eat each other nor too much. It's not healthy...
