Hi Qwertymyfx,

I will most than likely take another short position sometime by tomorrow based on the 4hr and Daily chart when price bounces down from 1.38172 or so, we shall see.

These trades were taken on a different account linked with the a contest so my traditional money management rules were bent a bit to accommodate the required high gains. But the trading setups are the same nevertheless. If you want to verify them just send me a PM and I will provide you with the link

No Contest For Me

Hello everyone,

Ok, here is the deal. I decided to opt-out of the contest. I am working hard to maintain my discipline during trading and the contest is making me deviate from my rules and is placing undo pressure on me. With that said. I am going back to my original account and maintaining my trading rules.

I know this may not be important information to everyone, but I am sharing with you my trading journey in this thread (the good and the bad) and if you think this post is useless, then simply ignore it.

The point here is that discipline comes first and foremost, not winning contests with faulty discipline and money management.

Cheers,

 

good job ,keep up

 

very well said

Yes , better to show discipline and the proper method. In those trading contests , most are likely to be gambling and those that are 'lucky' are then indicated as good traders.
