    Drattts, profit up there around $600, more faith and conviction in my trend study required.

    This game, real is never easy, ever, .

    UJ long at the moment, 110.51 avg price, 12's turned against me, upper range would net me a quick $100 but no, not yet, but I should exit for a -40 here.

    12's just turned up, weak like, looking stronger.

    EJ and GU both respected the 12's range better, ie my entry would of been nicer.

    $34 per pt = new pants required frequently, but keeps my margin max loss in check/

    profits here, got to hold to make the -$160 I saw worth the risk maybe, +50

    I'm weak, I can't hold long in profit, I admit it, exited 54.1 seconds later 55.5 which is worth a lot.

    Double profit here,

    I'm getting better, but I'm still trading the total moron way.

    Went long UJ based on the 12's range, 12 turned down and I held it down waiting for a turn.

    Could/should of played the 6's range 0.02% down the 12's direction and made good $$$'s

    Been -$260 area on this 1, 6's flat, over the 12 expecting a turn up, won't get to profit any time soon mind :(

    Tweaking method to try to discourage my mental hang up as per always.

    12sma is key direction wise, 12sma ranges removed
    6sma bolstered 0.02% main range, 0.03% is the chop sideway range and exit point if it starts to go wrong.

    UJ Sideways here, EJ turned up but didn't drag UK with it typically.

    Still holding, got to -70 nearly took it, but nah too late :( -200 here, BAD Day!!

    Method tweaked more, 8 and 16sma based.

    The main issue is I'm a scalper that keeps getting sucked into being a swing trader short term, there are so many good setups which made quick $$$'s and good $$$'s I've missed, while waiting for a profit exit point or a sign that it's going to go the wrong way.

    4hours of sleep likely not helping LOL

    I jumped on a short term uptrend, sadly it turned to downtrend on me and didn't give me a cheap enough out, well a few times but looked like it was going back to highs and well didn't, which is part of the game.

    Got to kill it soon, work to get to :(

  9. when you can, can you check the stamp time, so as to put it here at what time you went long:
    I am curious to check how this short term uptrend looked like.

    SO SO SO SO Close to being in profit here.........

    UJ uptrend, got to hold, said that before mind.

    EJ's turning up aswell, should help UJ move up maybe, not always

    Finger on the button, 2 seconds away and drops a few pt's in seconds, NOOOO!!!!

    GU is going up, so that'll drag UJ down, and countering EJ's nice turn up here.

    Can't get a break some times, hang on, higher higher higher
