Well i took my 2 from the snail for the day and i'm good. Took a look at NQ over the weekend and i think it would be some time before i even put a practice trade on. NQ moves similar to what i'm used to but the little differences throw me off. I ...

I just sat through 50 minutes of draw down that missed my stop by less than a pip just for price to spike back in my direction in 10 seconds for a TP. Testing my mettle for my first trade in the week Euro?! I know i know, this has nothing to do with ...

Fundamental Trading Always beats Technical Trading 100%
