Things have gone a bit quiet here so I'll try and crank it up again.I took a break from trading over the holiday period and am now back into it,there were a couple of good trades in the last 4-6 hrs on the g/u and e/y using the ib/ob system coupled with what I've learnt about support and resistance in this thread.Needless to say I didn't take either of them!
I've been at this game now for nearly 18mths and in that time have gone down all the usual paths of frustration, opening an account with 10k (USD) trading full lots,loosing half my account,changing systems regularly,etc etc.
Finding this site and in particular this thread and the "40-100 pips per day" thread has really turned things around,I've had two months of profit and feel much more confident about my future trading.
I've learnt most things the hard way and now only risk 1% of my account per trade (and I've changed to a mini acc.),I limit myself to trading only the best setups during the time I'm at my computer.
Hopefully the experts will re-visit this thread and teach us some more.
