This thread will be a Continuation of the previous Journal thread...
The main difference being that I will be trading Live with a couple hundred pounds, Ive still got to decide on the exact number. I will be going live with Oanda as I already have an account with them from the last time I blew it which was a year or so ago.
I will be using the Tdion phillosophy when it comes to trading my account, trade sizes will be arranged so that there is no money sitting there without a purpose, and obviously it is 100% Risk capital.
At the end of my previous thread when I had not posted for a while Craig asked what had happened. I responded with the following...
I had a long hard think about what my reasons could be for opening a Journal when I went live. And the answer is that I enjoy to chat every now and then(mostly its drivel though... I fear). And that If I do well, which I am reasonably confident about, this may actually open some doors for me.
My main method of trading will be roughly thesame as In the previous thread.
Method wise- Im still not totally happy though, I would like to be able to base my trades on a cause and effect, an edge that I could write down in a sentence.
EDIT(25/04/09): I now know what m edge Is.

DislikedNope.
Two reasons really, I was wondering why I felt the need to post my trades and progress. I came to the conclusion that I was either being an exebitionist or looking for some kind of aproval. I dont like the idea of either of them character traits and I intend to sort out whatever issues I have.
Also, I was getting quite bored spending my time trading a demo account.
I think I will take a break untill I save £800><£1000 to trade with. Since I have alot of revision to do before I start College.....My plan is to spend these 8months to memorise all my subject material before the courses even start. That way, hopefully, my 5-6 years out of education wont be too much of an anchor around my neck.Ignored
