Midulster-

Wow. I can't tell you how much that will help. Calculating all the ADX values by hand takes forever. To save time I've been placing trades right then and their whenever I see an ADX low enough for RTS.

Dale,

This business is definately work. I'm hoping that with time it will get easier on my health. I don't think I've ever had a work week where I worked as hard as I did last week or as long. I was on the clock 24/7. I think it was mostly because I'm so new and haven't gained your level of confindence in the systems. My losses were completely due to the fact that I deviated from the system and MM rules. My responsability.

One thing I noticed is that monitorying my trades continuously did ALOT more harm than good. And by monitorying continuously I mean being glued to the platform 24/7 minus 2-4 hour stints to sleep. If I hadn't been there the whole time I wouldn't have added to EUR/USD and when I got up in the morning it had retraced back to B2. So it wouldn't be showing such a huge loss. Or if I hadn't added to it I wouldn't have panicked and closed it out.

Can't wait for next week!
