Bear with me as I start this thread as even I don’t know where it’s heading. I struggled on which forum to put it…
Interactive Trading…no, not really looking for others to post their trades unless they want to.
Trading System…not really. More of a strategy that takes a measure of hard earned discretion.
Trading Discussion…again no. Not general trading info (plenty of that around), more specific to a particular strategy.
So…Trading Journal... Seems to fit this rambling beginning and more of a history of my journey.
We’ll see.
I've been slogging away at this dance we call forex trading for some years now. Basically since 2010. I've had some good runs and a lot of bad ones. But like most forex traders, as of yet, I haven't hit the holy grail.
I've started and participated in many threads along the way and have tried and even developed some good strategies, but never quite the right fit for my circumstances. Like many, I didn't have a large enough pot to start with so even relatively profitable strategies were soon shot in the foot by over leveraging in an effort to build a meaningful account.
Couple that with the fact that for my situation, I just did not want to sit in front of a screen for hours a day. I needed something that I could trade on the daily charts but still yield a reasonable return mid-term.
I believe I have finally found it. I believe, for me, I've found the grail, or at least as close as there is to one. But perhaps more on that later.
So let’s see where this goes. Follow along if you like. I’ll comment on some strategy thingies and post some charts as we go along. Let’s keep it civil…yada yada. You know the drill.
