Haha, I'm all too familiar with hay burners. I'm not missing the summers of my youth (read slave labor) hauling tons and tons of alfalfa for 20 some head of angus. Enjoy it for me Rufus, hehe No, but really, building fence and fixing the cow's ...

My EU limit short expired hours ago and I'm sitting on my hands right now. I've looked and looked tonight but really can't much on the watch list for LO & NY. I currently have a UJ long on, took it off support and stops are at B/E. If we break down, ...

This post should be a sticky. Well said Medici.

Islander and Medici trade the European open

I've had a limit short in for EU...hoping we can still get tagged before the train down.

Looking forward to it. GBP/JPY teasing my work schedule today, blah.

EUR/USD is all I'm watching for later this morning. Shout out to JLR for a great NU call a couple of hours ago that I couldn't quite see clearly until after the bounce off the PPZ had occurred.

Going over a couple of my losing trades this week... First was G/J short Thursday evening (PST). I knew it was due for a drop. My mistakes: I don't think my stops were too tight but I could have kept my eyes on the 15min for any reversal signal that ...

Haha, you don't even know Rufus! I've purchased a "Sonic Bomb" alarm clock, just to get me up for work in the AM after trading London. It blares at 90+ db and has a vibrator that goes in between the mattresses...seriously. I wear hearing protection ...

Ended the week at -1%. Reasonable handle on direction this week. R/R, money management, etc was all in check. Unfortunately, a slew of "almost there" trades stacked up against me and I couldn't cut it. A 2.5p stopout (before a run to TP), an ...

Have a good weekend MAC, you did some work this week.

Would it be too much trouble to pay me back my $20,000, my sexy darling?

E/GBP short that I'll be watching for...don't like that huge 1hr green candle but will still watch this PPZ. image

Couple more... image Credit to my buddy JLR for pointing out the following, which are at the top of my list tonight... image image
