"Hello there! I have much less experience than you, but perhaps we can still contribute to one another.  I'm taking a short break at the moment, but can't wait to get back to BCN to get started again!!"

A great lousy day??

Without getting into details, this is basically what happened today... Spotted a good entry point for the EUR/USD early in the day.  If things go right the long position should go up at least 30 pips.  It did fairly quickly.  Exit half and target next pivot level and move stop to break even.  No risk. Up, up and down. Stopped out.  The down movement set up a short entry shortly after, but it seemed there was more of an upward bias.  Therefore I figured 15 pips was reasonable.  Played out just…See More

The beginning of something good or beginning of total failure?

So this is the story.  I started to look into the world of currency trading just about a year ago.  Lots of reasons behind the interest, but not really relevant right now.  The beginning was rough; didn't understand half of the vocabulary and terminology, but driven by determination I did lots of research and studying.  It didn't take too long to get the basics down, but I knew it wasn't even close to enough.  To keep it short, after a few months of studying and paper trading, I went ahead with…See More
