  1. Dude, WORK for a financial institution??

    I EAT financial institution traders for breakfast in the market.

    I could care less about them or anyone passing judgment on how I trade.

    I win. That's the bottom line.

    Sometimes I've just survived, true. Sometimes I've had to break the rules - but all is fair in the love of war in forex trading. :D

    LOL,

  2. You kept this terrible position for 8 months???I will say it again if you were in a respectable institution and you did not take your stop loss , you would be fired.
    However in your trading microcosm, if you think that you are good trader, that is what counts for you :)

    Best of luck in your future endevours...

  3. "endevours" is spelled "endeavors," Phi Sigma.

    I think I've already made it clear, I don't care what institutions think or do.

    When I trade, I win. That's what matters. End.

    Regarding keeping a trade open, so for ME to keep a trade open it is "terrible," but for Buffett or Gates to keep one open it makes them geniuses...?

    Nice.

    'Scuse me now while I go skalp the South African rand.

    Please don't reply anymore.

    Thanks.

  4. OK spelling bee:)
    I did not say that Buffett or Gates are geniuses. Frankly I would love to see the $ go to par against Euro.
    You are confusing me with someone else.
    However Buffett's net worth is $40 billion , where as Gates' net worth is $30bill.
    What is your net worth?
    For a regular FX trader, you made a terrible trade...
    Admit your mistake, move on with your life..

  5. About $60 less than it was before I kept the EUR/USD short trade open for 8 months.

  7. "But last night i put on a long position at 2610 - and i´ll be very happy if i can close at 2690 or so."

    Dude, let me try to make you feel bad!

    Todays high = 1.2689.

    I told you that was a good trade! :D

    Great call, even if you didn't stay in.

    *ahem*

  9. actually you were so close ( 1 pip away ) from hitting your said TP, dude, I would have liked to see you nail it.

    you want a suggestion for a possible minor modification you could make so that you could have hit it?
