    I understand how you feel about the Publicly

    I've determined that I will not do anything on other threads until I'm done trading. To many times I've read something which talked me from a position where my thinking turned out to be right.

    At times I will go to some places if I'm clueless how to exchange something. The habit/discipline I have to construct is that when I'm clueless about a market to leave it alone until I get a grip on it.

    Worked on a ship now, little from the ordinary for me. Tearing apart a portion of the cabin that is experiencing dry rot. So lots of sunshine for me now, at which we live this is a welcomed phenomenon.


    Trade safe. Maybe 1 day our paths will cross.

    So, how did it all start?

    I was studying a lot about fiscal's throughout the 2007-08 period, and every now and again I'd stumble across a trader chat, MACD's, moving averages, fibs, items I knew nothing about, but wanted to comprehend. I went looking for a live stock feed to help me see what these guys were talking about. After about a month of looking, I understood traders paid for feeds (this was before I knew you can trade daily charts and that EOD would be enough), also signed up for an FX demonion reason it was live, and free.

    This inevitably led me into babypips, in which much to my shame (a part of the puppose of the thread would be to admit my failures) I followed TRO.

    For those who don't know him, save yourself the trouble and keep it that way. A person of drama that is unlimited. Although I could not do as he did, I had his indi's all over my chart, and did fairly well on demonion, trading my variation of his most-exalted method.

    As the weeks progressed, my system became more developed, although I did not know why it worked, I knew that it did, and approximately 8 weeks later I decided to (carefully ) place a $100 on it before things changed, and it stopped working.

    It was more or less an Asian-session breakout , performed only on particular days of the week, and just traded the EJ. Who knew the day I put actual cash on the line my system would neglect?

    I traded that $100 down to $10 in about 5 weeks, and that's when I realized that I should probably learn a bit more about the markets prior to continuing.
