gaf replied Dec 6, 2013Hey PipTrendz! Depends on your style and rules. I would not have taken that trade or would have at least taken stops to BE. I can't see how you entered but it looks like you had 1.5 R on the board so after that doji and clear rejection of the lows I ...

gaf replied Dec 5, 2013I wasn't sure if you want me cluttering up the thread with realtime posts but It keeps me accountable and also exposes my emotional weaknesses. Not something that I thought I'd still have so much trouble with. Thank you for your time and patience. ...

gaf replied Dec 5, 2013I've now missed 2 due to distraction so I'll have to observe until my kid hypes down. She's very excited about the Barbies today

gaf replied Dec 5, 2013Guess it doesn't matter as apparently my trade bounced due to my stops being too close to price my fault for not making sure. Heat of the moment so pseudo trade.

gaf replied Dec 5, 2013Thanks Bronco! I'm feeding my kid (distracted) and I know I'm leaving a lot on the table but I'm quite emotional so I'm training to just take the trades. Missed the second 10 pip swath on the retrace.
