  1. I'm not sure thats totally true moreagr.

    I started off with stocks but have found futures much better.

    I have a simple pullbacks in the trend strategy
    I turn my pc on
    I wait until I get a set up, enter, hold, exit
    End of day I say Ciao to the guys on the board and shut down tws

    No study, No checking lots of stocks, No internal surprises, And there's a futures market for any timezone.

    I could trade eurfx, jpyusd, es, eym, russell, estx, dax, bund, nikkei, hsi or spi if I moved countries, all with the same strategy. As it is I trade HSI for 4 hours a day. How hard is that :)


    But you do have to master your setup and yourself or you will just donate money to other participants.

    I would guess he's an All Black, or if he lived on the right side of the ditch, an Aussie :) . Go the Wallabies!!

    Decent basket of opportunities with your system mate.

    If you're a Kiwi, we beat you in netball tonight :D

  5. Frank Sinatra Song - That's Life!

    That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say
    You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
    But I know I'm gonna change that tune
    When I'm back on top, back on top in June

    I said that's life (that's life), and as funny as it may seem
    Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
    But I don't let it, let it get me down
    'cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around

    I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
    I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
    Each time I find myself flat on my face
    I pick myself up and get back in the race

    That's life (that's life), I tell you I can't deny it
    I thought of quitting, baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
    And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
    I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

    I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
    I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
    Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face
    I just pick myself up and get back in the race

    That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it
    Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
    But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
    I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die

    My, my!
