Holding though. Cringing now. Again I am at a new high negative... Live and learn. I am trying now to decide what circumstances will change my mind into taking the loss. Right now I cant wrap my brain around that...
Could you please explain how you're trading at the moment?The FX market has gotten crazy volatile recently, time to take advantage of it big time.

I should note that I no longer swing trade as I have found a much more profitable method to trade.
Now I trade like a prop trader instead of a fund. I take out half of my profits each month and trade huge size intraday.
If I did this from the beginning Im sure I would have millions with the way markets traded last summer.
For this method to work you have to be right at calling short term market direction 60% of the time (this gets easy after 1000s of hours of watching prices move) with very tight stops and not be afraid to leverage to the hilt. Its a similar style pit traders used in the 80s 90s to get rich fast. Its very tough mentally and you have to be OK with risk and not be afraid to admit you were wrong. A great week with this strategy is risking 12% to make 40-50%.
I don't agree. It was fundamental analysis I was looking at. And they were screaming that the dollar was going to get stronger. Whether you trade with fundamental analysis or technical analysis, or both.... short or long term trades. I don't believe trading forex is just luck. It's about seeing patterns. And knowing how the market will react to certain news and movements. etc.could have gone either way.............

It doesn't matter that I am not a millionaire so much. I proved I was right by the stop from bond buys. And the American economy became stronger and stronger. As the USD improved against EUR. And that is not luck at all. It was fundamental analysis.I hate when people do this.
If you knew this as an absolute, then I'm going to assume you are a multi millionaire now because of that trade right?????????
wait you aren't????????
sigh.
I really don't get why you have to defend your thread so much??? Like it's for some kind of special people or something. Didn't you start this thread without being an active trader? And then changed the thread title a couple days ago or so. I don't see why we can't talk everything Forex and currency in a thread like this. But it's your thread I guess. So you make the rules.Hindsight analysis means NOTHING. proof is in the pudding. Not the recipe. I don't want to keep having to say this. This thread is for active forex traders. Please keep opinions and historical analysis to a minimum unless it has to do with a FUTURE LIVE TRADE you are placing. There are plenty of places to talk about the theory of trading this is for those ACTUALLY trading...
BALLS BALLS BALLS. It has nothing to do with balls girl. I could start trading $50 like you do in a heart beat. But I don't feel like trading forex for now. But I get it I guess. I'm out of this thread now. Leave it to the ELITE.I did start the thread before I started live trading. But I never once have claimed I know or have figured out anything. It's not what you say it's how you are saying it. I just want to keep this thread civil. Most of us in the thread don't care about how right your call was when you don't have enough balls to put your money where your mouth is... For the record I did not change the thread title. Mj did. Its his forum. If you want to talk theory and hindsight analysis about your OPINIONS so be it. Here we care about trades actually happening IN REAL TIME. I could spend the weekend doing historical analysis and show how many thousands of pips I could have if I shorted the eur. But the only trades and opinions THAT COUNT are the trades I HAD THE BALLS TO OPEN.
Seriously, Why are you so butt hurt about my prediction??? NEVER DID I CLAIM that I am an EXPERT or ANYTHING. I try to create value on this forum. NOTHING ELSE.You could but you wont. That is the point...
This is for people who feel like trading.
Noone is kicking you out.
We just dont care about how right you think your opinions are.
Theres a hundred other forums for bullshit talk from people who know everything but dont "feel" like trading.
I know a$$ tons about rei and 1031 exchanges as well as importing and marketing and retail business. I can build websites and know about seo. I can sell affilliate products and do Google ads. I know how to write a blog too and how to make money off it. You dont see me continually arguing with the people doing it on their threads telling them how I know I could do it bettee than them if only I "felt like it" that kind of talk isnt really welcome anywhere on this forum. Its not just this thread. So if you can contribute something USEFUL to the conversation feel free to join in. But all the other bs take somewhere else please. I dont want to drive off actual traders because you keep on with your theorys...
Hehe. LOL. Don't get angry girl. I'm out of this thread now. Get back when I got something going. Or never. We'll see.Its not just me and I am not butthurt. But if you keep talking to me like that and I just might start to get pissed. I could give a flying F*ck what you predict. I am responding to the overall feeling I am getting from others posts. I was very nice a while back when this shit started. Not going to stay that way. They are quoting you to call you out on your bs talk not because they want you to talk more or defend your statement. The only true statement is that OPINIONS MEAN NOTHING TRADES DO. thats a fact. My a$$ is not involved. My opinions mean something because I PUT MY MONEY WHERE MY MOUTH IS. When you make a prediction. Take action on it. Make 10cents idc. Do it. Then I will care.
I care because this is my thread. I will state again I care because I do not want you to chase off serious active traders. I do not participate in forex forums because of people like you. This was/is my safe haven and the only place I discuss my trading.
