Day Trading the Forex for Profits...

Discussion in 'Journals' started by spinfoiltrading, Sep 3, 2010.

  1. Keep trading the plan, as long as the head is clear. You are doing good work.

    Also, no need to answer the question about news I read earlier and found the answer.

    I am looking to potentially get more into forex... tried it a while back but considering giving it another shot. Will be looking into pairs to compliment the mini index futures in terms of activity after US market closes. Also something where the events are easy to track...

    Best wishes to you, recompose and come back strong.
