Hi guys just Starting my trading path here in.
first of all id like to share a little bit about me.
this is the history from a 21 years regular guy from Venezuela who after leaving his job Considered before anything else, dedicate his time to trading.
basically Venezuela is a 3rd World Country where much people dont know even whats
the concept of trading or even what is a stock and less the logic behind a market like where same like a jungle the smart and dedicated win.
everything started in december 2006 when searching the web i crossed with an ad of with a really known company.
something that attracted my attention, basically the ad said 'dont trade stocks, trade on the most liquid market and win on every direction'. with little knowledge about the forex market.
i was instantly caught by that advise and followed the link.
trade in any direction and still win? wow....
after some minutes i just go to a page where i could sign in for a demo.
i filled out forms and after that they sent to a download page, i downloaded the software and to my surprise when i open it, just blown my mind up through my monitor a 'state of the art' software that gave me every cross and currency pair imaginable. without knowing too much i just got overexcited, o couldnt bellieve i could have that piece of market trading running on my machine.
after some minutes i figure out how easily with click of a button i could send an order to the market, i was amazed.
but after some time touching and testing everywhere there was still something i was missing, and after some minutes, days and weeks
i started to feel somehow uncomfortable,
what the hell is moving those ticks?
why the 'usd' is losing across the board but still keep winnnig ground against the 'jpy' ?
ok lets assume is a different correlationship, so why now the thing is now 'usd 'winning against most and still keep the same rate of jpy winning?
this and other big question remained on my mind....
i then was really frustated seeing is was not so easy as i thought so i made a challenge to myself.
and said i want to learn this stuff, ill do whatever i need to get handled this.
after big months trading in demo here, there, seeing indicators, trading expert advisors, sentiment, everything was failing and i was feeling even worse, so i decided to not give up, change approach and test whats was the real deal.
testing, failing, testing, failing....., finally i got something that has changed my result big, really big.
"TRADING IS MADE BY PEOPLE AND PEOPLE REACT TO CERTAIN CUES"
oh, some citizens have told me thats obvious but i tell them, if you are really smart you wouldnt be telling me this and ill be watching you on fox or cnn.
the power of those words, i have not even discovered the 10% of the meaning of that phrase but instead of letting it pass i am working on it.
So, Welcome everyone to my journal and differently to some people oppinion. that think, oh no, private real money live cant be shared and stuff like that.
i am gonna keep my live trading book for the eyes of everyone so you can see it, discuss it and also critize it.
erasing what some admins told me my journal hurt some noobs feelings i think not. and i am here to help, learn, enjoy and earn good bucks in the process.
pls keep tunned and see how all the myths people cant make money in forex or a 10% money increase in a month is amazing, are trashed and unmasked in the hell of lies.
welcome to my Journal, and keep tuned.
to your success.
Nicolas.
