I will say after being a loser for 5+ years I am going to take all that I can out of this market I know I could just do the weekly if I really wanted to but then I would not have anything to do. It maybe a ego thing now but I sure love winning, ...

Ya that's why I put up the screen prints lol. It just takes BALLS to not freak out on the amount you are trading with.

To be honest I don't keep track of it, I think I would say 40% or so, all it takes is 4-5 winners with 2% risk and 8% reward. Right now I am just doing a 2% risk 4% reward but I just adjust with the range and how it trends. Also I adjust down too, ...

I watch charts about 2-3 hours a day max on the 5min. I get a feel for whats going on so I only have to check it out maybe every 30-45min and if I miss a few I really don't mind. On Forex you can trade the 1min but I don't care for it 5min for me is ...

Yep even at 100% a year you are not going to make a million unless you have 300k+ to start and that is rare. I started with 20k blew up, 20k more blew up, sold everything got a 2nd job, blew up 10k and that was a long time ago. I know most ppl here ...

I took this trade, 10 pip stop 20 target and it hit +20. I also took a PB trend short before that and kill it for +12 before it did a trip bottom with divergence and went up.

Jankone M5 thread

I lost on this one as well, no biggie it happens, as long as your MM is tight you can always take the risk. As I said before I take some crap setups and risk $1 for $4 or at least $1 for $2 so it does not matter as long as you win 25% or 50%... Also ...

Jankone M5 thread

Yep you got it, as you can see price wanted to go up, and my time to kill it was I got long and wanted to get a new high, once that happened I knew I was set and went to cost because support was the old resistance.

Jankone M5 thread

Yes, look at this chart and look if you got into a CT on everytime it hit the BB with divergence or a PB. It just takes time to see the trades, also I will kill a trade in under 30 seconds if something goes wrong, I do not do this much but if the ...
