There are several people who would like to know HOW you've arrived at your decisions to make and take a trade. Is that fair? Or am I overreacting?

There's nothing wrong in keeping a journal here on babypips... many people do it.

In my opinion, just because FXTH is having great success DOES NOT mean that he/she has to give up his/her strategy and share it with the world. As a trader myself, I know it can take years for you to figure out a successful strategy. For me to then "have to" share it with everyone is not quite fair, nor should people start trashing FXTH just because he/she doesn't give away his/her strategy.

I'm at least thankful that FXTH is sharing his/her entries...If these results continue, i'll be trading it putting some real money to work.

I wish FXTH continued success.

Uptick,
Ok, so that's another way of looking at it and I'm going with it all the way. You're never too old to change the way you look at things, eh? He makes some fab calls, don't he? Except, as I' writing E/J is up almost 100 pips from his short point. Hmm.....I'm surprised.

yea... so far so good. yea, this short surprised me too. my daily stochastics still point to a buy, and the 4H still shows an uptrend; so FXTH's short at 155,20 confused me. i know we have no idea what FXTH's indicators are, but based on stochastics (which i use alot) i'd be hesitant taking this short... at least at the time that FXTH did.

Why didn't you stay with your limit of 156.50 on the Long order? You would have captured another 100 pips or more. Is there a reason why you exit and go Short?
