I've read similar sentiments on this forum so many times, it's really concerning. Don't let it take over your life. As much as people on this forum don't like to call this gambling, this game can be addictive, just like gambling. You need to be able ...

Is it a happy life ahead?

When there is severe risk off and market uncertainty, the US$ and (at this time) JPY gained because of their supposed safe haven status. I've had a quick look back at the charts because I wasn't trading E/U that day and I note your paragraph above ...

Does anyone have Flash Crash charts from 2010?

I see I wasn't very clear with my post. What I should have said was that I read that some people's stops were slipped by a couple of hundred pips on some crosses when the meltdown was taking place. Needless to say it blew some accounts out of the ...

Does anyone have Flash Crash charts from 2010?

I wholeheartedly agree with you. It seems that on this forum people have a hang-up about the word gambler though. The word trader gets thrown around this forum a lot like it's something special in this world. It's not. I have far more admiration for ...

Trader or Gambler?

Absolutely! I did my own little simple survey back in September last year based on some numbers from FF. The last time I looked at the yearly leaderboard was very close to the end of last year and there were only 49 accounts left with active members ...

How much do people make trading FOREX

I don't have any forex charts but I did find Accenture's share price chart that I saved on that day. If I remember rightly, all trades were reversed on this stock (as well as others that precipitously plunged). No reversing of trades happened in the ...

Does anyone have Flash Crash charts from 2010?

Gosh, that's quite horrifying. It reminded me of a post that M.A.C.Doug wrote some time ago. I've always appreciated his honesty. Are we all (except 0.4%) in denial? Scary.

Good decision. You don't need the noise.

9-25% Monthly Enough?

I don't believe that all of the posters with multiple usernames are devious. Some just got a little hot-headed the first time around so were erased and thus came back with another username. Some just feel like coming back as a "new" personality for ...

No results thread, let words speak...

hahahaha .... I like these threads. Although I do prefer music if I'm perfectly honest.

No results thread, let words speak...

Nice one. With that kind of leverage, I think it's only prudent. I was thinking that as you are in the military, discipline shouldn't be a problem with you anyway. None of this, I'll just move my stop back a bit etc etc. You've got some time to ...

Last words of a trader

I'm probably going to sound like a stick in the mud, but I think your goals are very bold. Firstly, with your goal of $400 per day = $2,000 per week equates to a 10% return per week on your account. Secondly, your trade leverage (i.e. position size ...

My strategy to become a full time forex trader

Good point. AmberLynn's trading was so outrageous, it was utter entertainment and that's how I viewed it. Anyone that has been around long enough knew how it was going to end. Couldn't even make the account last a week. The thought that someone ...
