    if you are sore
    then think before
    as prob so true
    is really YOU!

    if you get mad
    it keep you sad
    so start to smile
    once in a while :)

    the head is like
    fast racing bike
    just make it so
    know where you go :)

    the path of right
    always in sight
    if YOU not SEE
    not bussssy BEE :)

    so back to chart
    without the art
    the D is click
    to SEE big pic

    so now we know
    what big pic show
    if we not sure
    must find the cure :)

    the cure you see
    is there surely
    to SEE no art
    must pick a start

    a start can be
    but one of three
    forget the rest
    and join the best :)

    good thing to know
    what keeps you slow
    too close to TIME
    brings too much chime

    a step behind
    will open mind
    to where you SEE
    the bussssy BEE :)

    with regards to instruments, i have traded futures on currencies and stock indicies,
    with the exception of simple purchase of calls and puts on stocks i have not daytraded them
    so therefore i do not know what they are like other than long term junior mining speculation.
    What i do know is spot currencies, from that perspective i know there are uses for the one minute chart at times of clear "directional " movement, at other times the five minute will clear things up if confused.
    A trade i took on the AUD/USD today on the one minute gaining eleven points with what i consider a perfect entry and exit however failing to re enter due to not being around.
    Take a look at a chart, those with a clue will spot it easily.
    The obvious (for me) provides good entries with a definite point of failure and possible reverse trade
    It is clear to me that longer timeframes offer some fantastic opportunities to carry on with the idea of adding to winners, with much wider stops of course.
    I do use fibs, not because of the "magic" numbers but because it is a great tool to display the previous days high and low and also for another reason which i shall not reveal.
    I must say that i have been trading a long time and have known what is the "obvious" to me for a quite a while.
    however due to other commitments i have traded only sporadically in the last three years.
    Cheers to all genuine people and hope you find what you are looking for in trading, tread wearily as life is a hell of a lot more than making money trading.
    over and out.

    where no one knows

    you must try learn
    what means discern
    as words from most
    are just a boast :)

    the chef must know
    that cooking slow
    without great haste
    much better taste :)

    so clear your mind
    be one of kind
    just look to SEE
    the busssy BEE :)

    A stitch in TIME
    will save just nine
    But when we move
    get in the groove
    A busy BEE
    will never SEE
