zoopy replied Jul 18, 2008Not sure about the eurusd dropping although on my 4 hour chart I do have a wave collapse. When I see that, it's a warning sign that things may start reversing (in simplest terms, we have created a lower low but not a lower high yet). You're right ...

zoopy replied Jul 15, 2008Good idea — Kaunasny What you have posted is a great idea. Quite often we tend to remember better when when we write things down. I think it's also a great way to prepare for the following week when the markets are closed. That way you're able ...

zoopy replied Jul 13, 2008Hey Kiss. Glad to see your trading is coming along nicely. Your story is a good example of what's possible when trading small. I think traders sometimes forget that as the account grows, so too does the pip value. Consistency is key as you have ...

zoopy replied Jul 12, 2008Yamin I used $500 in my example because I knew more traders would be able to relate to it. Is it possible to grow an account with $500? Short answer. Yes. Would I risk 5% of $500? No. I would risk 2%-3% first, build up my account to $1200 then use ...

zoopy replied Jul 12, 2008That's very true although that also depends on your method I think. The way I trade I know when I'm wrong and definitely won't stick around when I see waves breaking against me. That's a BIG no no lol. The example I laid out was referring to an ...

zoopy replied Jul 11, 2008Very true — Very true Raz. Trading is all about probabilities. NOTHING is certain no matter how obvious you think it is. No one can tell the future. You can give a million reasons about why "you" believe the market is headed down but by the ...
