Lol K nice 2 meet you Meli. And i would suggest just waiting and watching oil at moment... Im going out but have put 1 order to buy if oil falls down to 80.90 / but a 2nd order to sell instead if oil goes up to 85.76. Im now just waiting to see how priced in this EU bailout already is, as when the details are announced later we could see some falling in oil. But also keeping an oil on the dolla weakening, and if this is a new trend change, or like all the other markets fx is also going to become a range market. I feel so so sorry for any swing traders now though..
Happy bday spanish. I'm currently long on crude as well. Account is just over £1500 so progressing steadily.
Happy birthday spanish. I've had a fairly quiet day today. Just been scalping oil and am up about £400 so far. At this rate ill have to wait another week to hit my £10k target. I actually might take a break from posting/reading this forum though. Am spending too much time reading it and missing trades. Maybe you can start a thread where you update on a weekly basis your results for those that are interested?
I think there's more to you than meets the eye, Mr. blackjackers. Eh, what? lol. p.s. Happy birthday Spanish. lol.
Thank you, and well done mate. Ive shorted oil from 84.57, abit annoyed at myself since i am going to need to make a solid decision from now whetehr im scalping or longerterm... since i saw £80 profit, back to 0, 50 profit, back to 0, and yet i didnt cash in cos i was waiting for my target level that 15 ticks lower.. Im very happy now as we have a solid looking triple top above 84.60, and my target level is 83.86. So itl be 65ticks profit after the spread at £2 tick.
While this new oil is alot safer to trade in some ways i guess, it is seriously just creepy and annoying now!!! LOL I mean fuking hell i got in my trade on oil nearly 2hours 25mins ago, and yet we are still in that smae fking 30cents range!!! I mean come one on this is crude oil ffs!! 30cents range for over 2hours straight!
K thats me done for the day.. The oil opportunity in this new ranging style market has now gone, and its just in the mid way floating zone now. lol Ive made £672 profit today at just £2 per tick . (336 ticks) And so thats now £911 so far for the week, which i am extremely pleased with myself for being able to do, as yesterday i basically had to invent a brand new stratergy on the spot and then start using it. LOL I know i could have made closer to £100 on my last trade, the 2nd of the 2 from that double top, but im still happy enough with myself for following my stratergy and being an OPPORTUNIST, not trying to be a PERECTIONSIST ANYMORE.

http://www.trade2win.com/boards/jok...ay-target-but-now-has-solved-bank-crisis.html And for all the people on t2w... LOL Yes i do read the forum too every few days, and you all know i do, and i know you know i do, yet we have this thing going on when we all pretend that the other has just vanished into a seperate universe and can no longer have any direct contact!! lol It would just be so much more 'ergonomical' for us to just embrace eachother and share both sites, instead of this wierd sort of 'silent rivalary' between t2w n ET! haha Im happy to see some of you do believe in my rading skill and ability now though. (Sorry to 'bug' you by making it look so ridiculously easy btw mate! lol Its not 'easy', it was extremely easy before mostly when the market was trending, but now its not easy at all, however its not 'hard' either. Since there are only 2 directions, 1 will be the correct short - midterm, 1 will be wrong, and so logcally an mathematcally its actually just as easy to make lots and lots of money as it is to lose lots and lots! Since if you can 1st work out 'how to lose money', then you just do the opposite to that.) It may sound silly and absurd, but if you are a newbie/unsucessful , and you go to your virtual account and actually actively try to LOSE as much money as possible it not as easy as it sounds! Im actually already in the process of writing my own trading book that im gna try getting published. But unlike all the other books that give tips and techniques that are meant to help you make more money, My book is the opposite!! Its called ''How to lose money trading''. And its for newbies/unsucessful traders/ or sucessful traders who wnat entertainment.
