traderkay .. i had to laugh when i read my post on this thread from a couple years ago.. at that time my trading had really stablized and i thought i would continue being profitable.. but, still i am learning.. i ended up on a huge boom/bust cycle for about a year and a half after that post.. i finally realized that if i didnt fix my tendency to sabotage myself whenever something upsetting would happen in my personal life that it was pointless to trade.. so, in november i took a job with my old company and moved to the DC area.. and im trading the eurex in the early morning hours.. on one hand its nice to have a paycheck that i cant destroy with one click of the mouse in a moment of lunacy, but i really miss being in the game all the time.. anyway, just thought id let you know that youre not the only one who continues to struggle.. -qwik
