Bulls, can I make a suggestion? Clean up your charts. Less is more. I've been @ a stage when my charts looked like star wars as well and more indicators usually serve more to confuse than to aid. I've cut mine down to long moving averages for S/R, ...

Heya Tia, Years back, (I'm making myself sound old. LOL) I listened to this interview with a pretty successful businessman, he said, "you can't want something too much. If not you end up paying 'wanting it' tax and that ends up screwing up your ...

Totally relate to tt Aaron. Went through a similar phase lately... thankfully I was cognizant enough to recognise I was off balance mentally and took out all that crap on demo. But it's annoying, cause it disturbed my psych... Found the key to this ...

I concur wholeheartedly G. It's trying to get what I want in a hurry that has impeded my progress. Wise wise words. I read a story lately about how the chinese chose horses for their generals. They made an astute observation. Those that learn very ...

Sorry to hear tt Kiss. I dont hv problems taking losses, etc etc. For me it's wanting to win too much. Strange that it's a problem? It made me try to rush things, and over stretch myself to try take more than what I could handle. So it went nowhere. ...

Heya KISS. Man, this hit home. I started out years back knowing jack all with zero guidance and made some really dumb (noob)^10 mistakes. It's only been the past few days that I've realised that I've been taking getting this right too seriously, and ...

Hey Mike, Aaron, One of the epiphanies I've had lately is that this is very much like driving. There's no this "ALWAYS" works stuff. Sometimes, you can accelerate, sometimes its just insane to do so. There're no BLACK & WHITE rules, but there are ...

Oh yeah. I think i've read just about all the more prominent trading psych stuff that's available. Fiji's stuff is by far the best psych stuff I've come across EVER. He's amazingly insightful. Mark Douglas' stuff... personally, I find it confuses ...

I've been lurking here for awhile. Just want to say that this methodology rocks. I mainly trade the 1hour using 4hour as bird's eye view, but in essence, I trade the same thing as you guys. PBs with the trend. CT must be divergences off confluence ...

I have to admit that Benji has amazed and continues to amaze me... His recent post confirms a point, that I believe all good traders have wrt what/how they trades, ie: " I like it, and it is easy." Keep it simple. Have a plan for entry & exit (s/l & ...

G'day sir. Think this is a common factor many of us share. The high blood pressure and annoyance... for what! This is by far the warmest place I've found. I think many share this sentiment which is why this is our "online home". All the best. ...

Something my best bud said to me recently, not sure if you saw my post, but it helps me heaps to just type it out again, "Its fine missing moves. If your system didn't encompass it, then it wasn't your money to take to begin with" We recognise more ...
