Hedvig: I think you will regret this enormous mistake that you are about to make. You are flying your plane to Chicago on a friday... to meet a 30 y.o...desperate blind date... setup by your sister...that works in a hospital... Need I continue?. You are better off going to the local supermarket and buying a papaya to masturbate with. Even Pierre Woodman would agree with me. Good job on the trading today and this week. Can you post a picture of your strap-on-inversion-brain-dildo-chair?. Peace. MM
I came across this post not expecting the "P" word to be used in such a manner, but it does fit the description of the point you're trying to make. We must all have lives outside of trading. Learn how to set daily risk limits for ourselves, and when we hit those for the day, walk away from our computers and enjoy the rest of the day. Don't take the bad trades with you through out your day. This is the risk people take when they choose to start trading. Take it for what it is and remember, tomorrow is always a new day
-------------- Heading out shortly. Johnson, Chicago is my hometown (my dad was a part-time CBOT bean and bellies trader in the '70's). I plan on being there for 5 days. My sister knows my twisted tastes--this could be a good one. I will treat her like stepping in front of an FOMC report in the early 2000's--with abandon. Oh yea; the Teeter is attached (jpg). Dildoes and other paraphernalia not included in the image. Have a smooth weekend y'all peace Archbiship Hedvig Von Dikkeman V
"Try it with papaya. Create a sufficient hole with the help of knife for easy insertion depending on your diameter. Pierce some smalle holes around it so that the air pressure you would create when you ram would be released out besides it wouldn't create any awkward sound when you ram. Pour some lukeworm water before hand so that the temperature is enough to let it feel natural. It would give you an immense pleasure. You woun't miss your gf especially when you are away from her and blimy it is hassle free. That is what I call safe sex without any cotraceptive. No AIDS ! No promises !! No complaints !!! And it may cost 50 times lesser than you would spend on a hooker ! When you are finished you need'nt even throw it. It would be a power-packed healthy fruit if you just eat it and yes, after doing all this don't be guilty-ridden of being a pervert, as there will be no one to call you that. Papayas do not talk !! Once you have done it, you might feel embarassed the next time you go to a fruit mart. Remember not all the people buy papayas for this purpose only !" http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071021013129AAJ7IFp Sounds like it's the way to go. I'm going to start looking for fruit farms next week! Be careful after you've finished, though: <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/kU7YUvUOBXo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Hola all, My Friday psychology & hog report... A nice visit back to my hometown through Wednesday of the week--flew back on Thursday (took that day off from intraday trading). The medical intern was a white girl; as Dice opines "white honkey motherfucking girls--I can't take 'em anymore!" We parted company after 15 minutes when I could tell she was high maintenance and actually wanted me to spend some money on her! For who for her for what forget about it. I ended up with a thai/mexican 1/2 and 1/2 girl that served cafeteria food at Northwestern Memorial (nice and uber young). They don't mind us older men. I kidnapped her for a day and a 1/2 and we had a great time slumming it, though I showed her off at COQ'dOR (@the Drake) and actually almost sold her to a couple of high end dykes we were drinking with. A few years ago I actually would have let them hit my offer and 'take it.' On to the psychology. I saw my sports pyschologist last week and this week my results were near 100% of what is hypothetically possible. 1 loss on 17 trades for the week (no trading on Thursday). 7 b.e.'s w/9 winners. I read a very good article that actually referenced a trading tool I have been using for 9+ months now. As of Sunday night that performance is 'dead to me.' I usually work alot harder on Sunday reviewing and going over my charts after a very good week than a week in which I underperformed. Here is the article; it is...good stuff! http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7...ff-choked-afc-championship-game-espn-magazine I personally use deep breathing and visualization as I get ready to enter a trade (typically when it is getting near one of my setups). My Friday was 1 & done in 6E and NQ (no valid setups in CL). 1st trade: I entered 6E around 7:31am est and held that bitch until after the CPI report lifted my trade to profit with a good 2.5 to 1 Reward:Risk payout. 2nd trade: I entered NQ short around 10:10am est and exited with a 2.25 to 1 Reward:Risk payout around 10:19am. CL I look @from 9am est to 10am est and I did not see any trades that 100% fit my trading plan for FRIDAY. I am very picky on Friday a.m. and employ a '1 & done' on all my markets (unless a b.e. trade and I get an additional setup at the same time on a higher timeframe). I never trade past 10:30am est on Friday. ----------- It is important for all traders (my opinion) to go do stuff OUTSIDE trading on Friday and Saturday (if you need to look and study charts, etc...do it on Sunday and skip that supernatural worship ritual that others might attend and tell your family you need at least a 4 hour or a bit more block of time for YOU--then don't budge on YOUR time). It is also VITAL for all traders (but especially newer ones) to realize after a really good week or really good day that you come back to the market the next day with the same approach (never overconfident) and treat every trade according to your written trading plan. I now go drink my drink and take a hot tub. I have my sights set on St. Patty's for serious predator mode. I like holiday's that encourage drinking--especially girls that are underage drinkers and tend to 'black' out. Some of my greatest loads have been dropped in 18-20 year olds that I can tell are so fatigued and drunk on these types of holidays that it is a 'done deal.' My locational preferences for these huge REWARD to RISK 'setups' are marinas or bars adjacent marinas & anything close to private colleges. peace Hedvig
Keep posting Hedvig. This is, for me, the only professional thread worth reading in ET. The others are just entertainment. Only one question: How does the Thai-for-Dyke swap works?.
I sat and marked up my intraday charts in 6E CL and NQ for nearly 3.5 hours ('til 11am est) and had zero entries. Can't remember when that happened last. ------------ Are you trading for ??? a) action b) money c) 'positive expectancy' {your edge played out over time based on proper trade setups/position sizing/trade management} ------------ On a Tuesday Wednesday or Thursday I keep open the option of p.m. session trading. Monday--nope. peace Hedvig
I know that JohnsonMM will keep 'pricking' me to add more posts (in his own perverted way); however--did any of you guys read that ESPN article? Recall, I use the deep breathing technique and visualization of gratitude and love (um--I am not familiar with that "4 letter word" l*ve--yes it is gay)--but I don't have a biofeedback device that I use when trading. Do you think one is either born with it (the ability to make shit happen when it matters, in sports or trading or whatever) or can it be learned and modulated? I use fairly fast volume timeframes in intraday trading and when my brain reverts to 'lizard' reflexes I try and use the breathing techniques and visualizations to keep my heartrate (though elevated when $$ is on the line) even and steady. It was a quiet 'roll' for CL today (May contract now front month {volume}). I begin my trading on higher timeframes @7:25am est on 6E--so I missed those 2 nice moves up on 6E/6B from 6am to 7:15am est. NQ was stagnant the times I trade it from 10am est to 11am est. Fairly quiet day today; I am bored with the market. I NEVER force a trade from boredom. Here is a tip if you tend to take impulse trades. When I was working with my mentor in the late 80's as an 18-19 year old he would make me take out a $100.00 and BURN it if I took an impulse trade (he knew the trading rules too). We traded with CQG mini-satellite dishes and our groovy 12 inch orange/black 'dos'-based monitors. Used to shell out $1800 per month+ and had to have all brokers on speed dial to check out fills (even on our 15 and 30 and 60minute charts & daily). It only took me about $2,500 before I stopped trading on impulse. He would laugh at me. I think most traders work best with negative reinforcement (it has to HURT). Well, Monday afternoon is prime pussy time for me (think art students/graphic artists/bartenders--servers/hairdressers); they have Monday's off and the really filthy young ones begin drinking and drugging by 4 or 5pm est. St. Patty's weekend was just insane (my #3 ranked drinking holiday for young girls); I have done what I need to do and now I must attempt to fill the void. peace Hedvig
